Polotno

Polotno is an image and video editing SDK delivered as a programmable component that developers embed into their own products. It provides an interactive editor, template automation, rendering, and export, designed to run inside a customer's own architecture and infrastructure rather than as a hosted third-party service. The SDK is intended to help teams add media production capabilities to SaaS workflows, AI products, and web-to-print systems without building and maintaining an editor from scratch.

The SDK includes a drag-and-drop canvas editor with layers, multi-page support, zoom and pan, snap-to-grid, bleed controls, and undo/redo history. It supports image editing (crop, resize, transforms, masks, background removal), video editing (upload, trim, resize, timeline, animations), text editing with rich and curved text, shapes, icons, and custom asset libraries. An automation API enables template-based generation, data-driven personalization, batch rendering, and notifications when files are ready, with planned integrations for Zapier, Make, and n8n. Export formats include PNG, JPG, PDF, SVG, GIF, MP4, and PPTX, with print-ready options supporting CMYK and bleed. The SDK is white-label and modular, allowing customization of the UI, business logic, and export pipeline.

Polotno is aimed at product teams, AI startups, and web-to-print businesses embedding editing into their platforms. Pricing is scoped to use case and volume, with monthly or annual billing and standard or custom contracts. A 30-day self-serve trial is available without a credit card, deployable on a private dev server; a paid plan is required when the trial expires or when moving to production. Enterprise contracts may include source code access.
