PACK AI STUDIO, the all-in-one packaging AI design agent, specialized in packaging, labels and product visuals, is built for the label that gets printed, cut and stuck on a jar: it knows your Avery sheet, the wording a food label needs and the cut line a sticker follows, and its AI designs at the label's exact shape, up to 4K.

Where PACK AI STUDIO stands out

Labels sized for the jar in your hand

Most labels go around something. In the label maker, enter the diameter of a jar, bottle or candle glass (or the distance around it) and the height of its straight side, and it works out the label: the width is the distance around less a small gap, or plus an overlap if you want the ends to meet. Then it lays the label on your Avery sheet, starting at any position on a sheet you already used, with a test page and a printer offset you set once.

Every label keeps 1/8 in of bleed and a safe area for its words, and the PDF and SVG come with the text outlined, so they print the same from any computer. Add a CutContour line and a print-and-cut machine follows your shape.

The words a food label has to carry

A jar of jam or a bag of cookies sold in the US needs more than a name. The food label maker builds the ingredient list from your recipe, heaviest first with sub-ingredients in parentheses, as 21 CFR 101.4 sets out. It declares the nine major food allergens by name, sesame included, and names tree nuts by kind. It also prints the cottage food statement your state asks for, word for word, for all 50 states and DC.

Each check measures the real letters: 1/16 in for the ingredient list and the address, the net weight sized by the label, the product name in bold. When a recipe changes, change the amounts and the list reorders itself before the next batch.

AI that designs at the label's real shape

Pick the label on an AI page and the design starts at that shape. AI candle label design offers a jar front, a full wrap and a tin lid, where the net weight is sized for the whole lid as 16 CFR 500.21 counts it. AI supplement label design covers bottle wraps, tub fronts, pouches and stick packs, and the AI label generator has seven label types, five of them at the exact size of an Avery sheet.

Words you put in double quotes go into the design letter for letter, and the dashed safe line keeps them off the cut. Choose Quality mode for the finest detail at up to 4K, or Fast mode for drafts up to three times quicker, and open the result in the label maker with its bleed and cut line, ready for the sheet.

Die-cut stickers, from the drawing to the sheet

The AI sticker generator draws your sticker on a clear background, then makes its cut line in your browser for free: a white border from 1/16 to 1/4 in, smoothing a blade can follow, any size from 1 to 10 in. Each sticker downloads as a 300 dpi PNG, a print PDF with a CutContour line and an SVG of the cut.

The free sticker sheet maker then packs up to 20 designs onto Letter sticker paper, precut Avery circles and squares, or Cricut's Print Then Cut area of 6.75 × 9.25 in, with a QR code or barcode on any sticker you like.

From the label to the whole pack

When the label is done, the rest of the pack is on the same site. The free dieline generator draws tuck end boxes, boxes with a lid and drawer boxes at any size, with the board's thickness built in, and AI gift box design paints the whole box on that dieline. Coffee bags, beer cans, food pouches and mailer boxes each have an AI page with their own shapes.

Slogans and listings, checked before you print

The AI slogan generator writes 20 lines a run for 1 credit: 8 for the front of the pack, 6 brand taglines and 6 ad lines, each kept to a length that fits.

Each line is checked: your brand name kept exactly, no ® or ™ you didn't ask for, and a note with its source when a line makes a health or nutrient claim. Send a line straight onto the label, or into the AI product description generator for Amazon, Shopify and Etsy listings.

One conversation for every change

On Pro and higher plans, the Pack AI Agent takes your label as it is: ask for the scent name larger and the lid color matched to the wax, circle the corner where the barcode goes, or attach a photo of the tin. It makes the new version, checks every quoted word on it and keeps each version in your history.

Photos and video for the launch

AI product photography shoots your real jar again in eight setups, from a pedestal display to a holiday scene, and the AI product video generator turns one picture into a 1080p clip with sound, 9:16 for Reels and TikTok.
