- 100% On-Device Browser Processing: Your reference photos never touch a remote server. All image cropping, manipulation, color quantization, and canvas rendering happen locally in your browser.
- Studio-Calibrated Precision: Designed specifically for artists, photographers, educators, and printmakers—with fractional aspect ratios, print-ready DPI dimensions, and millimeter-accurate grid sheets.
- Instant & Frictionless: No forced account creation, no watermarks on free tiers, and instant high-resolution exports.
