Two tools in one
Start with what you have.
Choose the workflow that matches your starting file. Both end with a machine-ready embroidery download.
01Create new stitches
✦
Image digitising
Start with a clean logo, icon or flat-colour illustration. Our automated pipeline traces the artwork and generates a new stitch plan.

Two ways to get stitch-ready
From artwork or file to fabric.
Digitise clean artwork into new stitches or preserve an existing design while changing its machine format.
01
Turn clean artwork into stitch-ready designs.
Upload clean artwork, choose the finished width, then let the software handle thread colours and validate each requested file.
Review size, colours, stitch count and delivery formats before using the final files.

03
Convert existing stitch files.
Prepare PES, DST, JEF and other supported output formats through a tracked conversion queue.

Format freedom
One design. More machines.
Move embroidery designs between home and commercial machine formats without rebuilding them from scratch. Read 21 formats and write 18: PES, DST, JEF, EXP, VP3, XXX, PEC, U01, TBF, HUS, SEW, SHV, PCS, VIP, TAP, DSB, DSZ and KSM. PHB, PHC and PCM are accepted as sources only because reliable open-source writers are not available.
Start with JPG, PNG or SVG artwork—or an existing machine embroidery file.
02
Choose size and format
For images, add the finished width. Then choose the machine formats you need.
03
Validate and download
The engine reparses generated results and records stitch metrics before private downloads are released.
Image digitising and conversion run in isolated software jobs. Results still depend on source artwork quality and on information supported by each target format.
Simple pricing
Pay for output, not complexity.

Made for real workflows
One embroidery tool for artwork and stitch files.
Create new machine-ready designs or solve format mismatches without confusing the two services.
FOR MAKERS
Turn JPG, PNG and SVG artwork into embroidery files
Submit clean artwork with the finished width and desired machine formats, then follow automated colour handling and digitising through validation and private delivery.
FOR ONLINE SELLERS
Digitise once, prepare the formats customers expect
Keep digitising and machine-format conversion separate while managing both services from the same account and download history.
FOR EMBROIDERY SHOPS
Get customer files production-ready, faster
Track artwork orders, convert supported stitch files, review dimensions and colour changes, and retain a useful audit trail for production work.

From a customer’s logo to the right machine file.
Automated digitising and file conversion stay separate, clear, and trackable.

No format lock-inDownload authorised deliverables and use them in the machine workflow you choose.
Yes. Upload clean artwork, choose the finished width and output formats, then our automated VTracer and Ink/Stitch pipeline handles the thread colours, generates the stitches and validates the files. Photos, gradients and very fine text may need simplified source artwork.
A standard conversion preserves the original design dimensions and stitch path wherever the target format supports them. Known limitations are flagged, and a test stitch is recommended before production.
The converter writes PES, DST, JEF, EXP, VP3, XXX, PEC, U01, TBF, HUS, SEW, SHV, PCS, VIP, TAP, DSB, DSZ and KSM. It also reads PHB, PHC and PCM as conversion sources. Every generated machine file is parsed again and checked before release.
Every completed job includes the selected machine files, a software-rendered stitch preview, thread chart, production worksheet and a ZIP package. EXP jobs also include Bernina-compatible INF colour information and a BMP preview companion.
Not currently. Those are proprietary or editable design formats that the production engine cannot safely write and validate. We do not relabel another file or provide a fake download in their place.
Some formats store full colour information, while others store only colour-change stops. You may need to assign your preferred thread chart at the machine.
Batch selection is available for accounts with batch processing enabled. Free processing accepts one file at a time, while each batch source is validated and shown as an individual result.
No software is needed to submit digitising work, convert a supported file, review status, or download a result. Advanced manual stitch editing may still require specialist embroidery software.
