Designious Studio Beta Is Here: New Tools and Monthly Credits
Designious Studio is now in beta, giving current subscribers a new place to prepare artwork before using it for merch, print-on-demand, ecommerce graphics, client projects, and everyday design work.
The beta includes Vectorize, Remove Background, Upscale, SVG Recolor, improved uploads, version history, and Studio credits. Current subscribers now receive 300 Studio credits per month with their subscription, so you can start testing the tools as part of your existing Designious workflow.
Because Studio is in beta, you may run into rough edges while we continue improving the experience. If you find a bug or something does not behave the way you expect, contact us at support@designious.com.

What You Can Do in Designious Studio
Studio is designed for the file-preparation work that happens between finding or creating artwork and using it on a product, mockup, client file, or shop asset.
You can upload artwork, process it with Studio tools, compare the result, and save versions as you work. That makes Studio useful when a file is close, but not quite ready: a background needs to be removed, a source image is too small, a PNG or JPG needs editable vector output, or an SVG needs a new color palette.
Vectorize: Turn Suitable Images Into SVG Files
Vectorize helps convert JPG and PNG images into vector files. This is useful when you have a logo, icon, badge, sketch, line art, or flat illustration that needs scalable SVG output.
The important word is "suitable." Vectorization works best when the source image has clear shapes and edges. After running Vectorize, preview the result and inspect the SVG before using it in a real product or client file.
Remove Background: Create Cleaner Product Graphics
Remove Background helps clean up artwork that is trapped inside a backdrop, white box, scan area, or product photo background.
This is useful for mockups, ecommerce images, stickers, merch graphics, and other designs where the artwork needs to sit cleanly on top of a product or layout. Preview the transparent result before saving, especially if the artwork will appear on both light and dark backgrounds.
Upscale: Improve Small or Soft Source Images
Upscale helps increase image resolution when a file is too small for the job in front of you.
Use it when you have a source image that needs to be larger before it can work in a product layout, mockup, print-prep step, or design file. As with any image-preparation tool, inspect the result. Upscaling can help a usable source, but it should still be reviewed before production.
SVG Recolor: Adapt Vector Artwork Faster
SVG Recolor helps you apply a new palette to SVG artwork. You can use it to create seasonal variations, product-line color tests, brand-aligned versions, or quick alternatives from an editable SVG file.
This is especially useful when you already have good vector artwork and do not need to redraw it. Recolor the file, check contrast and readability, then save the version that fits the product or campaign.
Uploads and Version History Make Testing Easier
Studio uploads now support a smoother file workflow with drag and drop, clearer file groups, and better paging. Processed images also keep version history, so you can compare results or return to an earlier version.
That matters during real creative work. You may remove a background, upscale a source, try a vectorized version, and decide one earlier result is the best fit. Version history helps you experiment without losing track of what worked.
How Studio Credits Work
Current subscribers receive 300 Studio credits per month with their subscription.
Credit-based Studio actions show their cost before you run them, so you can decide whether a file is worth processing. You can also check your credit balance and usage history from billing.
This is helpful when you are preparing a batch of files for a product drop, client project, or shop refresh. Check your balance, process the files that are strong candidates, and save the results you want to keep.
A Note About the Beta
Studio is still in beta. We are continuing to improve the tools, uploads, credit visibility, and overall workflow as creators use it on real files.
If you find a bug, run into a broken workflow, or see a result that looks wrong, send the details to support@designious.com. Include what tool you used, what happened, and any relevant file or browser details you can share.
What to Try First
Start with one file that has a clear problem:
- Try Remove Background if the artwork has an unwanted backdrop.
- Try Upscale if the image is too small for your intended use.
- Try Vectorize if a clean PNG or JPG needs scalable SVG output.
- Try SVG Recolor if an existing SVG needs a fresh palette.
Then compare the result, save the version that works, and keep moving toward the final design.
Designious Summary
Designious helps creators turn ideas and imperfect source files into editable, production-ready commercial artwork. With Studio beta, current subscribers can test practical preparation tools for background removal, upscaling, vectorization, SVG recoloring, uploads, version history, and monthly Studio credits. Try Studio with one real file from your workflow, and send beta feedback or bug reports to support@designious.com.
