Nine steps, each with a check you can see
Nothing moves forward until it passes. You stay in control of every publish.
- IdeaType your own, or start from seasonal dates, trend feeds or your own sales. Each idea gets a score with reasons.
- Idea reviewDemand, seasonality, product fit, print feasibility and originality risk. Only approved ideas become designs.
- DesignTypography layouts on your device, or AI images with your own key. Character sets keep one character consistent.
- Design QAA 0–100 score for resolution, DPI, edge halos, jaggies, transparency, safe area and legibility, with suggested fixes.
- Legal checkBanned terms and an index of live USPTO word marks. Exact matches are blocked; near matches need your confirmation.
- Print checkExact pixel size and DPI per print area, transparency where needed, content inside the safe area.
- Product + mockupsCreate the product in your Printify or Printful account and get the provider's mockups.
- Ad videoA 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 video from the mockups: hook in the first 2 seconds, animated text, music and a call to action.
- Publish, measure, learnYou click Publish and confirm. Your own orders and ad results show which styles work for you.
Everything a print-on-demand seller needs
Built around your own accounts and your own files — no lock-in.
Print-ready files
PNG at the exact pixel size and DPI of the print area (for example 4500 × 5400 px at 300 DPI for a tee front), with clean transparency, or SVG for flat and typographic designs. Your provider's own values win when they differ.
Pipeline board
Every idea and design with its stage, what blocks it and the next step. A changed file makes old checks stale, so a product always matches the file that passed.
Batch designs
Upload a CSV or Excel sheet with up to 200 rows. Each row goes through the same idea review and design QA as a single design; pause, resume and retry anytime.
Character sets
Reference images you own, a locked style and colours, and clipart variants for hair, outfits, poses and expressions, so a character looks the same across designs.
Ad videos on your device
Made in your browser from your mockups, exported as MP4, no watermark. Each ad gets a score for the hook, pace, call to action and length, and goes to the Scheduler as a draft.
Your accounts, your keys
Connect Printify or Printful with your own token. Free steps run on your device; premium AI uses your own key and shows an estimate first.
Printify and Printful
Connect with your own token. Here is exactly what each one supports.
| Printify | Printful | |
|---|---|---|
| Connect | Paste your Personal Access Token | Paste your private token |
| Create products | Yes | Yes, for API / manual-order stores |
| Shopify | Publishes to the sales channel connected to your Printify shop | Hand-off pack (files, specs, link) to finish in Printful: Printful's API can't create products in Shopify-connected stores |
| Mockups | The provider's mockups | The provider's mockup generator |
The rules we follow
- Original work only: no brands, sports teams, famous characters, celebrities or “in the style of” living artists.
- No marketplace scraping: Etsy or Amazon links and listing text aren't accepted as input.
- The trademark check is a helper, not legal advice. Search tmsearch.uspto.gov yourself before you sell.
- AI-generated mockups and videos are labelled, and the label travels with the Scheduler draft.
- Publishing always needs your click and a confirmation. There is no bulk publish.
Questions
Is POD Studio really free?
Yes. The studio, the print-ready exports, the checks, mockups from your provider and the on-device ad videos are free with no watermark. You need a free GrabCast account. Optional premium AI steps use your own AI provider key, and that provider may charge you.
Which print-on-demand providers does it work with?
Printify and Printful. You connect your own account by pasting your own API token. Printify can publish to the sales channel connected to your Printify shop, such as Shopify. For Shopify stores connected to Printful, Printful's API can't create products, so POD Studio gives you a hand-off pack: the print-ready files, the specs and a link to finish in Printful.
Are the files really print-ready?
Each design is exported at the pixel size and DPI of the print area you pick (for example 4500 x 5400 px at 300 DPI for a tee front), as PNG with transparency where the product needs it, or SVG for flat and typographic designs. A design QA score and a print check look at resolution, edges, transparency and the safe area before the file can be used. Provider values override the defaults when they differ.
Does it check trademarks?
It checks design text against a banned-terms list and an index of live USPTO word marks in print-on-demand classes, and blocks exact matches. It is not legal advice: always search tmsearch.uspto.gov yourself before you sell.
Does POD Studio scrape Etsy or Amazon?
No. Ideas come from what you type, seasonal calendars, trend feeds, AI brainstorming with your own key and your own sales data. Marketplace links and listing text are not accepted as input.
Will anything be published without me?
No. Publishing to your shop always needs your click and a confirmation, and only after the legal, print and publish checks pass for the exact file. Ad videos are added to the Scheduler as drafts; nothing is posted until you schedule it.
