Built for brand designers who deliver precision. Generate base grids, construction grids, and clearspace zone around any logo mark in seconds.
Start generatingGridMe generates construction, clearspace, and Present output on locked layers. Your logo paths stay as you left them.
Foundation grids, construction overlays, clearspace zones, and Present sheets from identity work inside Illustrator.
Grids, clearspace, and deck pages belong in Illustrator. Not a second night at the desk.
Client moves one point, you rebuild every guide. GridMe regenerates on a locked layer. Paths stay editable.
Hand-placed lines look fine until someone zooms in. GridMe snaps guides to anchors and fits circles cleanly.
Clearspace and color sheets mean a second night at the desk. GridMe adds them beside your logo in one file.
One docked panel. Each tab owns a step in your identity workflow, from Base grid to Present export.
Five bottlenecks that slow identity work. One panel that handles all of them.
Grids pasted on your art get merged or deleted by mistake. Output sits on a locked layer. Your logo stays editable.
Most tools bill you just to place guides. Seven Base grids are free forever. Pro trial runs 7 days, no card.
Pop-up scripts cover your canvas and kill your rhythm. GridMe docks in Illustrator and stays open while you work.
Round logos mean tracing circles by hand and hoping they look right. GridMe fits curves and labels the radius.
Most grid plugins stop at guides and skip the client deck. GridMe covers clearspace and Present for $5 a month.
Studios and freelancers on the designer beta. Quotes from real sessions, not a marketing deck.
Four of us in New York. Juniors kept deleting guides before export. Locked construction layers fixed that faster than another process doc the team ignored.

Friday was grid day for me. Anchors, fitted circles, and foundation grids land on locked layers while the mark stays editable. I log off before dinner now.

Legal wanted ghost copies on the working AI file, not a guessed margin in PDF. It matches how we write exclusion zones in the brand book. Fewer review loops.

Holding company brief: three sub-brands, three exclusion zones. Multi-zone clearspace beat redrawing wrappers by hand. Nothing outlined, nothing flattened.
Nadia Rousseau
Design director · Atelier Nord, Paris
I dock it under Window Extensions like any native panel. Select the art, generate, keep talking on client Zoom. No script dialog sitting over the artwork.

Round marks: I used to eyeball fitted circles. Three-point fit on a locked overlay is what I pin in crits. Looks like the tracing I did, without the tracing time.
Sofia Lindstrom
Senior designer · Lindstrom Identity, Stockholm
I still sketch on paper for mood boards. In Illustrator I dock GridMe, run clearspace the day we sign off, and hand legal a file that matches the PDF.

Identity designer · Studio Marchetti, Milan
Clearspace and Present sit in the same panel as construction. We stopped billing a half day just to draw wrappers and min-size blocks nobody asked for.
Tobias Keller
Creative director · Keller Studio, Berlin
Hex badge Tuesday, baseline wordmark Thursday. I doubted seven grid types until both showed up the same week. One panel, same habit, no context switching.
James Okonkwo
Logo designer · Okonkwo Marks, London
The color matrix at 11pm was my punishment. Present drops a four-up sheet on a locked layer beside construction so I quit rebuilding swatches for every deck.

Monthly for one pharma rebrand, annual after the second. One billable hour we used to spend placing guides covers the year. My studio lead approved it same day.

Three retainers, three machines. Activate each seat once, then the panel runs offline on flights. That matters more than another tab I have to babysit in a browser.

Pricing, trials, locked layers, offline use, and what happens to your artwork when you generate.
Yes. The trial starts automatically the first time you open the panel. When it ends, Base stays unlocked. Pro tabs show a lock until you subscribe or enter a license key.
