Frequently Asked Questions


We offer two licenses to Studio: an Annual License for $85/yr (that’s about $7/mo), or a one-time payment Perpetual License for $425. Both Licenses offer full access to Studio including future updates and bug fixes along with unlimited exports, downloads, or syncing with Origin.  

We also offer an unpaid tier, which includes full access to Studio, but is limited to three exports a month.

In contrast to our Annual License, which needs to be renewed each year, the Perpetual License has no predetermined end date and does not require annual renewal. (Lock in pricing now, no more subscription reminder emails!) 

In the unlikely event that Shaper discontinues the Studio service, Shaper commits to either a minimum of five years from your date of purchase, or we’ll offer a pro rata refund in qualifying circumstances. (see complete terms & conditions)
