Canvas Software
Making professional, creative software more easily accessible
At Canvas Software we believe that artists shouldn’t have to break the bank for their creative tools. We aim to make software that is low-cost, yet still powerful enough to create professional artwork, so that both beginners and veterans alike can express themselves freely. Our goal is to democratize the creative industry, making high-quality tools accessible to anyone with a passion for art.
Built upon the custom made Canvas8 graphics engine

No AI
At Canvas Software, we believe that artists should not be limited by their creative tools. Each one of our apps is available as a one-time purchase, so once you own it, you own it forever.
In addition, we believe that the work an artist creates should belong solely to that person. None of the work that you create using Canvas Software will ever be used to train AI, so you can be confident that your work belongs to you and only you.
