Roadmap

What we're building next.

Public roadmap at quarter granularity. We don't commit to dates on individual items — research items often outgrow research, and planned items sometimes get cut. The themes are stable.

Q3 2026

Q3 2026 — Shipping now

Sanity v4 migration

Sanity v4 upgrade path

Shipping

Tested migration path from Sanity v3 to v4 with zero schema changes. Auto-update rollout for managed Studios.

Studio multiplayer presence

In progress

See who else is editing a document in real time. Useful for content teams.

Designer + preflight

AI-assisted preflight suggestions

In progress

Resolution upscaling recommendations, font fallback suggestions, contrast warnings. Runs on customer upload, never blocks submission — surfaces fixes.

Designer multiplayer mode

In progress

Multiple designers collaborating on a single design — for agency clients with multi-person approval workflows.

Q4 2026

Q4 2026

Production + fulfillment

Production capacity planning

Planned

Forecast bottlenecks based on inbound order velocity. Flag jobs at risk of missing deadline before they slip.

Native Gelato fulfillment connector

Planned

Push print-ready files directly to Gelato's global fulfillment network. Already supported via generic webhook; native connector adds tracking + cost-back sync.

Regional infrastructure

Singapore-hosted region

Planned

Managed hosting in ap-southeast-1 for customers serving APAC. Reduces TTFB significantly for SG/AU/JP storefronts.

Q1 2027

Q1 2027

B2B + brand kits

Brand-kit approval workflows

Planned

Configurable multi-step approval (designer → brand team → procurement) before B2B orders proceed to production.

Per-buyer pricing on B2B accounts

Planned

Customer-specific rate cards already exist; this adds per-buyer overrides for enterprise accounts with multiple purchasers.

Developer experience

Public REST API v2

Researching

Cleaner, OpenAPI-spec-first version of the order + product + designer APIs. Backward-compatible with v1 for 12 months.

Webhook signing v2 (HMAC-SHA384)

Researching

Upgraded webhook signature scheme. Currently HMAC-SHA256. Will overlap for 6 months before deprecation.

Researching

Researching

Long-horizon bets

Headless designer SDK

Researching

Standalone designer component for shops on platforms we don't natively support (BigCommerce, Magento, custom). Ships only if we can keep file output quality on par with the embedded designer.

Print-MIS scheduling integration

Researching

Two-way sync with Tharstern, EFI Pace, PrintIQ that respects MIS scheduling rather than independently scheduling jobs. Currently one-way push.

On-press color calibration loop

Researching

Close the loop from press color measurement back to designer preview. Niche but valuable for shops with calibrated workflows.

What's not on the roadmap (and why)

We're often asked about three things that we've deliberately decided not to build:

  • Built-in fulfillment marketplace

    We integrate with fulfillment partners (Gelato, Apliiq, contract printers) but don't run our own production network. Marketplace economics conflict with our one-time-license positioning.

  • Customer-facing AI image generation

    Generative AI for design is everywhere, and customers ask. We've trialed it on three storefronts; conversion lift was small and complaint rate on color reproduction went up. We'll revisit when the underlying tech stabilizes.

  • Per-order pricing model

    No matter how attractive the unit economics look. The flat $19/month is the product; charging per order would be a different product, and a worse one for the shops we build for.
