v2.6
4/22/2026
- DesignGen Ultra Max just got a major upgrade. It now delivers sharper detail, stronger realism, cleaner text rendering, more polished product imagery, and more precise edits across every image workflow. The result is a higher-fidelity creative experience for everything from brand visuals and mockups to marketing assets, UI concepts, product photography, and conversion-focused content.
- Whether you are creating from scratch or transforming an existing image, Ultra Max gives you more control and a stronger final result. Inside Creative Studio, that means better concept development, cleaner ad creative, stronger mockups, and more premium campaign assets.
- This update makes Creative Studio more consistent, gives Operator a cleaner and more reliable image engine to work with, improves Screenshot to Design handoffs, and helps sellers create stronger visuals for their DesignGen marketplace products, listings, mockups, and brand assets with less guesswork.
V3.0-Preview — The Operator Era
3/19/2026
- V3.0-Preview is the biggest DesignGen release yet. Operator is now at the center of every workflow — from idea to design, brand to storefront. This update brings Creative Studio, Brand Studio with the Violet knowledge interview, a full seller marketplace, and production-grade image tools to every tier.
- Operator — your AI design partner. Chat with Operator on the dashboard to generate designs, launch Creative Studio sessions, manage brands, and navigate every tool without leaving the conversation.
- Creative Studio — a persistent workspace for campaign-ready creative. Multi-format output, reference management, image-to-video, and automatic brand context across sessions.
v2.3
12/18/2025
- At DesignGen, our mission is to be the fastest path from idea to delivery. v2.3 is built around two priorities: a major upgrade to the Ultra model, and a Create Studio experience that feels faster, clearer, and easier to control from the first click to checkout.
- This update is about reducing friction. Faster generations, more reliable instruction-following, cleaner transparency by default, and a Create Studio workflow that makes it easier to preview, compare, and finalize designs without fighting the UI.
- New Ultra model (main v2.3 feature): higher instruction certainty, up to 4x faster, and native transparent output (no BG removal needed, saves tokens).
- Create Studio: interactive mockups — drag, resize, and reposition designs directly on garments, with per-garment placement.
Jade Lotus (v2.2)
11/21/2024
- At DesignGen, our mission is to be the fastest path from idea to delivery, and with the Jade Lotus (v2.2) release we are taking an incremental step forward to drive this mission.
- This drop centers on Create Studio and the new wave of Base, Ultra, and Ultra Max models. Everything else in this update is built to support that core experience and push you from idea to production faster and more reliably.
- New image generation models with Base, Ultra, and Ultra Max collaborating inside Create Studio.
- Create Studio, powered by the new Base model.

- New Persona model available in Mockup Studio today for all Pro users.
- Persona is a first-of-its-kind, ultra-realistic persona mockup creator. Generate mockups of yourself (or a teammate) in different scenes, poses, positions, and outfits — if you can type it, you can make it.
- All TrendTap models got a major upgrade — now feels more like that partner who goes above and beyond to answer the question and help out.
- First reply may take a bit longer, but the results are worth it — fewer back-and-forths to get a strong concept.
