Corel integrates AI tools into the CorelDraw Graphics Suite 2026 under the keyword “Artist Intelligence.” Designers can generate images via text input through the “AI Generate” docking window. Image elements can also be rearranged using reference images. Additionally, the AI separates image motifs from the background.

Corel integrates third-party image generators into the CorelDraw graphics program, including Nano Banana and Nano Banana Pro from Google Gemini, Stable Diffusion 3.5, and various Flux models from Black Forest Labs. Before the first use, you must confirm the terms and conditions of the respective providers.

Via the “AI Generation” docking window, you can set the aspect ratio, choose the style and color palette, and enter a prompt. Up to four images can be generated depending on your preference.

Corel deducts a different number of credits for each application, for example, 16 credits for Nano Banana and two credits for “Flux Schnell.” The docking window displays the credit balance at the bottom. Subscribers receive 2000 AI credits per month. Buyers of a perpetual license receive 2000 credits once. Additional credits can be purchased.

CorelDraw integrates external services like Nano Banana from Google Gemini. This allows images and graphics to be not only generated but also modified.

Using the “Remix Image” option, the AI can replace elements, change backgrounds, and transform scenes as desired. To achieve this, select an image area as the source image and add a prompt in the text window. For example, for an online shop, graphics and designs can be placed on T-shirts within a photo.

In the image editing program Corel Photo-Paint, the AI assists with isolation. The program automatically recognizes motifs and, if desired, creates non-destructive masks using the “Mask from Subject” command. The AI is also capable of cleanly separating fine structures like hair or fabrics from the background.

The tool is also available in CorelDraw as a destructive isolation function via the context command “Remove Background.”

In addition to the AI tools, Corel promises a modernized interface, increased stability, and a three-times faster program startup. Users can also access over 50 additional brushes and 200 new templates.

Subscribers and customers with maintenance licenses can access a large portion of the drawing tools in the browser version, CorelDraw Web. Some details are not included in the web version but are displayed grayed out in the menu. Users can work with cloud documents in CorelDraw Web, open drafts, and review changes as a team. The web app also includes the new AI tools.

The majority of CorelDraw tools are also available in the browser version, CorelDraw Web.

With CorelDraw Go, Corel targets beginners and occasional users with a simplified interface and reduced functionality. The beginner version also includes the AI tools mentioned above.

Corel offers the CorelDraw Graphics Suite 2026 for Windows, macOS, and in the web browser. Corel sells the perpetual license for 779 euros. The subscription costs 369 euros per year and includes access to the desktop and browser versions. CorelDraw Go costs 9.99 euros per month or 115 euros per year.
