AI-powered photo masking in Corel PHOTO-PAINT delivers more precise subject selection and clip masking to speed up masking tasks.

Corel launches Artist Intelligence inside CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026, embedding AI tools that generate images from text prompts, rearrange elements using reference images, and separate backgrounds.

The tools are designed to empower designers to generate, remix, and refine visuals while preserving full creative control.

The announcement provides availability, licenses, and regional language options, with links to product pages and support resources.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is available on Windows, macOS, and web, with pricing of $269 per year for a subscription or $549 for a perpetual purchase, and CorelDRAW Go at $9.99 per month or $99 per year.

Pricing and availability span Windows, macOS, and web across multiple languages, with VAT applied to EUR and GBP priced regions.

A perpetual license is offered at €779, with a desktop plus browser access subscription at €369 per year; CorelDRAW Go is €9.99/ month or €115/year.

The suite integrates third-party image generators, including Nano Banana, Nano Banana Pro, Stable Diffusion 3.5, and Flux models, with terms required for each provider before use.

The user interface is refreshed to reduce friction in daily design tasks.

Subscriber-exclusive content adds 50 pixel brushes and over 200 design templates, plus AI credits—2,000 monthly for subscribers and maintenance customers, with a one-time 2,000 credits for perpetual license buyers.

The AI Generate dock enables up to four images per prompt; model-specific credit use varies (e.g., Nano Banana around 16 credits, Flux Schnell about 2). Subscribing grants 2,000 monthly AI credits; perpetual buyers receive 2,000 credits upfront; additional credits are purchasable.

The update includes a modernized UI, faster startup (up to three times faster), improved performance, and CorelDRAW Web updates bringing desktop AI tools to the browser.
