Describe the Event. Get the Print Design.
A full drag-and-drop editor with an AI designer sitting next to the canvas. Type "rustic fall wedding, gold script, three photos" and watch a finished, on-brand strip assemble itself. Publish, and the booth prints it offline. No designer. No SVG.
One Event, One Design, Minutes Not Days
Every client wants a print that looks like it was made for them. Until now that meant a designer, a template file, a round of revisions and a deadline that always landed the night before the event.
The AI Design Studio opens straight from the event page. The canvas is already the right size for the print the event uses, the photo slots are already in place, and the AI assistant is already waiting beside it. Describe the look, refine it in plain language, drag anything you want to nudge by hand, and publish.
The output is the exact artifact set the booth already uses for library templates, so the print composites instantly, offline, with no new file format to learn.
- Canvas preset to the event - 2x6 strip at 600×1800 or 4x6 landscape at 1800×1200
- Photo slots already placed - 3 for strips, 2 for 4x6, adjustable 1–4 and 1–2
- Operator-only - same permissions as editing the event, nothing new to manage
// the assistant edits the canvas one step at a time, so you watch it assemble
A Designer That Takes Notes
The chat panel never leaves the canvas. Give it the brief, then give it feedback, exactly the way you would with a human designer, minus the wait.
Full Layout From a Sentence
Describe the event and the assistant lays out the whole design: background, photo slots, names, date, accents. Then ask for incremental edits like "make the names bigger" or "add confetti in the corners".
Watch It Assemble
Changes land on the canvas one at a time with a visible step counter. You see every move the assistant makes, so nothing is a black box and you can jump in at any step.
Starter Prompt Library
Not sure where to begin? Pick a starter prompt by event type: weddings, corporate, birthdays, holiday parties and more. Edit a few words and send.
Generated Backgrounds and Art
AI-generated backgrounds and image elements with an options picker, so you choose the version you like. Prefer a real photo? Add from a URL or open the built-in stock photo finder.
One-Click Background Removal
Any imported or generated image can lose its background in a single click. Drop a client logo on a photo of a white wall and get a clean cutout, no Photoshop.
Photo-Slot Safety
Every AI or manual design is checked against the slot rules before it reaches the canvas or the booth. A slot can never print a stretched face, no matter who moved it.
A Real Editor, Not a Form
When you want to take over from the AI, every control you expect from a design tool is already on the canvas. Drag, snap, layer, duplicate, rotate.
- Photo placeholders, text, shapes, images - rectangles, circles, stars and lines, with solid, gradient or image fills
- Full text control - size, colour, bold and italic, alignment, letter spacing, line height, stroke and shadow
- Layer order, duplicate, rotate - arrange anything above or below anything else
- Full Google Fonts catalogue - searchable picker, every family
- Upload your own brand fonts - the client's typeface on the client's print
- Smart alignment guides - pixel spacing labels appear while you drag
- Snap to edges and objects - plus zoom and fit-to-screen
🖼️ Use as Frame
Turn any premade template or PNG upload into a frame layer. Photo windows are detected automatically, so the overlay you already own becomes an editable design in one step. Uploads of another shape bleed off the canvas edges instead of being squeezed, or you can switch the canvas to fit.
📐 Photo Shapes
Set one photo shape for the whole template and every slot is validated against it. The booth crops each capture to match.
🗂️ Asset Tray
A per-location tray for the things you reuse. Upload a logo once and it is there for every later event. Assets remember whether they are frames.
Open. Describe. Publish.
Four steps from a booked event to a print the booth already knows how to make.
Open From the Event
On the event page, the Set Template picker has a Build Custom Design card. The editor opens full-page, sized to the event's print, slots in place.
Describe the Look
Type the brief or pick a starter prompt. The assistant builds the design step by step while you watch, then takes your edits in plain language.
Polish by Hand
Drag a slot, swap a font, drop in the client logo from your asset tray. Smart guides and snapping keep it tidy. Autosave has your back.
Publish to the Booth
One Publish produces the exact artifacts the booth uses for library templates, and can cover every surface of the event. Prints composite instantly, offline.
// video, boomerang and GIF designs and custom photo shapes need booth software 2.6.0
Print Is Just the First Canvas
The same studio designs every output the booth produces for an event. One brief, one brand, every surface.
Print Strips and 4x6
2x6 strips and 4x6 landscape prints, the two sizes every booth in your fleet already prints. See sizes and shapes.
Video Guest Book Overlay
A landscape overlay for guest messages: full-frame branding or a single video window with your design around it.
Boomerang and GIF Frames
Landscape 1920×1080, Square 1080×1080 and Portrait 1080×1920 for stories. Branded motion that gets shared.
All Surfaces, One Click
A single Publish can cover every surface of the event. The booth receives a matched set and the brand is consistent on every output.
Nothing Is Ever Lost
Autosave, Two Seconds After Every Change
Plus undo and redo, and explicit Save and Publish when you want to mark a moment on purpose.
Version History With Non-Destructive Restore
Every version is labelled by origin: user, autosave, AI or publish. Restore any of them without destroying anything. Reset to blank simply creates a new version.
Start From Any Past Design
A new event can begin from any previous design at the same print size. Last season's gala becomes this season's in one edit.
Experiment Freely. Nothing Breaks.
Let the AI try something bold. Drag a slot somewhere strange. Reset the whole canvas. Every state is kept, every restore is reversible, and the booth only ever sees what you publish.
A first-time walkthrough tour shows new team members the editor on their first open, so anyone with event permissions can build a print without a training session. AI image generation has a per-location daily cap, so a busy afternoon of experimenting never turns into a surprise.
- Undo / redo - on every object and every AI step
- Guided first open - a walkthrough tour the first time anyone launches the studio
- Daily generation cap - per location, so costs stay predictable
You Design. Hosts Admire.
The studio is an operator tool. Your clients see the result in their portal, not the controls.
🛠️ Operator Side
Anyone who can edit the event can open the studio. No extra role, no separate login.
- Same permissions as editing events
- Per-location asset tray and version history
- Publish straight to the booth, offline-ready
📱 Host Side
In the Host Portal, the client sees their custom design exactly as it will print. Template and wording editing are locked for custom-design events, so nobody undoes your work.
- Custom design shown in the portal preview
- Template and wording editing locked
What It Does for Your Business
Custom design used to be the upsell you dreaded fulfilling. Now it is the one you can promise every client.
💰 Sell Custom on Every Booking
A bespoke print no longer costs you a designer invoice or a weekend. Charge for it, deliver it in minutes, keep the margin.
⏱️ No Designer in the Loop
The AI handles layout and artwork. Your team handles the brief and the final call. Revisions take one sentence, not one email thread.
📁 No SVG, No File Wrangling
Publish produces the artifacts the booth already understands. There is no export step, no upload step and no format to get wrong.
🎯 Brand-Exact for Corporate
Upload the client's fonts, drop in their logo from the asset tray, match their colours. Corporate clients notice, and they rebook.
🔁 Compounding Library
Every design you publish becomes a starting point for the next event at that print size. Your catalogue grows with every booking.
🛡️ Zero Bad Prints
Slot validation and shape-matched cropping mean the design that looks right on screen prints right at the booth. No stretched faces, no reprints.
Every Event Deserves Its Own Design
