The current service

The software automatically converts a photo you choose into an editable cross stitch chart. Conversion and export run on your device. No generative AI or human design service is used. Review your preview before stitching; likeness, eye details and thread-color accuracy are not guaranteed.

Rights in photos and outputs

Use photos you own or have permission to process. You keep your existing rights in your input photos. Generating a chart does not grant rights in another person's photo, brand, character or likeness. Check the rights in your source before sharing or selling a chart or finished piece. Public example photos are credited on the examples page; using a sample does not make you the photographer.

Digital files and limitations

Files are digital charts, not fabric, thread, kits or stitched goods. RGB palette values are not verified official DMC codes. The stitch view is a simulation. Automatic background removal, backstitch design, cloud backup and purchase recovery are not available. Fine details and distinctive markings can be lost; compare cleanup before keeping it.

Delivery and backups today

After conversion, choose an export button to generate a download in your browser. PDF includes a key and tiled symbol chart. Download project JSON before refreshing, closing the tab or changing image settings. It restores chart data, not your original photograph. No paid order, entitlement, email delivery or stored project is created. Lost local files cannot be recovered from an account on this site.

Free preview and future pricing

No money is collected and no subscription is offered. Listed USD prices are proposed future one-time prices. Paid purchase, protected download, tax and refund conditions must be finalized and implemented before any real checkout opens. See refund status. Nothing here limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Privacy and support

Read the privacy policy for local processing and deletion details. Contact information remains incomplete until the owner supplies a real public email and operator identity. No support response time is promised.
