Same full panel as monthly or annual Pro, but you pay once and keep access. We are finishing checkout for this plan. Monthly and annual are the options today.
More identity tools are on the way beyond grids and guidelines. Watch the changelog for what ships next.
From base grid through Present every output stays beside your art in one place.
Seven foundation grids clipped to the artboard. Free on every install. No card required.
Logo anatomy on a locked overlay. Gray fill and outline modes keep paths readable while you build.
Brand-book exclusion zones with filled markers and dimension labels. Append zones for sub-brands in one file.
Client-ready sheets in one tab: swatch labels, color matrix, and minimum size ladder.
From your first grid line to the client handoff PDF, everything below ships with Pro.
Seven grid types, free forever. Where every mark starts before the client asks for revisions.
Anchors, handles, and circle fit on a locked overlay. Show the math in crit, not just the final mark.
Exclusion zones that match your brand book. Stack multiple marks in one file without redrawing wrappers.
Color sheets and min-size pages in the same AI file. Skip rebuilding the deck at midnight.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Brand design specialist · Freelance, Tokyo
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.
