Why is this software special?

Created by the world’s most awarded digitizer,
perfected by embroiderers like you

At 17, John Deer mastered embroidery digitizing under professional Schiffli masters. John would go on to earn 30 awards, teach 100,000+ embroiderers, and work with brands like Disney, Coca-Cola, and the NFL. But after decades of teaching, he kept seeing embroiderers struggle with clunky and complex digitizing software. He knew there had to be a better way, so he set out to create a simpler, frustration-free solution.

For three years, he obsessed over every detail, focusing on the biggest pain points in popular digitizing software. To ensure it met real-world needs, we launched early access to 1,000 embroiderers in Nov. 2024—selling out in just a week! Over six months, their feedback helped further shape the software into what it is today: the easiest way to digitize, with thousands of embroiderers making the switch!

Unleash your creativity

The sky’s the limit — You’ll be amazed by how easy it is to create your own beautiful designs!

Explore the revolutionary features that make this the best embroidery digitizing software

A simplified design process

Non-Cluttered Interface

Our clean, user-friendly layout prioritizes the tools you use most. It shows the 10% of the tools you’ll use 90% of the time, while others are easily accessible when needed, allowing you to have as much real estate as possible for creating designs.

Stay In Your Creative Flow Without Interruption

One User-Friendly Yet Powerful Digitizing Widget

This all-in-one artist’s tool houses all the essentials needed to create custom designs in one streamlined location, eliminating the need to click around and adjust properties constantly.

Create Satin & Fill Stitches With Ease

Innovative Advanced Satin & Fill Tool

Advanced Satin & Fill Tool: Easily create complex satin & fill stitches in three quick steps: 1) Draw the shape, 2) Input inclinations, and 3) Automatically generate a logical path. A commercial-level tool improved for precision and efficiency.
New Auto Satin Feature: Saves time by automatically converting outlined designs into satin stitches in seconds.

A New Simplified Way to Create Stitches

All-In-One Artwork Mode & Tools

Ready for a new way to create designs that is MUCH faster and easier for beginners? Switching between different tools to create various stitch styles and shapes can slow down the digitizing process, but the artwork tool makes it simple! This powerful, all-in-one vector-based tool allows you to draw or trace any shape and assign any stitch type in seconds.

Pick Up Right Where You Left Off

Snap-to-Anchor for Effortless Continuity

With the innovative Snap-to-Anchor feature, you can continue creating stitches seamlessly, avoiding frustrating doubled or overlapping sections. Unlike other software that creates multiple shapes if you let go of the pen or press enter while using a tool, Snap-to-Anchor remembers your spot and lets you pick up exactly where you left off, saving you time and eliminating errors.

No More Sudden Screen Jumps

Drag-Pan for Smoother On-Screen Navigation

Our new pan feature lets you click and drag to adjust your view while creating objects without losing your place or tool. This prevents the common issue of auto-panning that can send users into “outer space” when they hit the screen’s edge.

Use Scalable Vector Designs Without Manual Work

Easy SVG & FCM Import & Conversion

The ability to import, edit, and convert SVG files into stitch-ready designs instantly gives you more creative flexibility and saves time compared to manual conversions.

Have Complete Control Over Your Designs

Object Modification & Powerful Editing

With universal object modification, our software lets you transform any object into different stitch types and patterns, giving you complete control over your designs. Plus, effortlessly click and drag to adjust motif pattern sizes and see instant results, streamlining your creative flow without the hassle of manual adjustments or waiting for things to load to see how they appear.

Design Freedom: Always Set the Perfect Tone

200 Fonts & Thread Color Management

With 200 built-in, object-based fonts, our software provides a vast selection to match any design style, from playful to sophisticated. Plus, achieve flawless color consistency with extensive color management options—choose from a range of popular thread brand palettes or create your own custom palette for perfectly matched colors across your projects.
