Text-to-vector AI Software (2026): CorelDRAW’s New AI Vector Generation in the September Update Reviewed by Consumer365

Published

on

NEW YORK, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Consumer365 has published a new review of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026 following the September 2026 Update, highlighting new Text-to-vector AI capabilities and workflow improvements for professional graphic design. The September update expands CorelDRAW’s AI Generate tools with a dedicated Text-to-vector workflow designed to turn written prompts into editable, scalable vector graphics.

Best Design Software for Vector Creation

CorelDRAW – professional creative software for vector illustration, graphic design, layout, photo editing, typography, and production-focused design workflows.

The September 2026 Update builds on CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026, a professional design suite covering vector illustration, layout, photo editing, typography, and production-focused workflows. The update remains part of the 2026 product release.

The new Text-to-vector capability represents the central feature of the September update. CorelDRAW places the feature within the AI Generate docker or inspector, allowing designers to begin with a written description or existing artwork. Generated graphics can then be refined as editable vector objects.

Text-to-vector AI Brings Prompt-Based Vector Creation to CorelDRAW

Text-to-vector AI software converts written creative directions into vector artwork. CorelDRAW’s September 2026 Update brings the workflow directly into CorelDRAW through AI Generate.

The workflow supports two starting points. A designer can enter a text prompt to explore a concept from scratch. Existing artwork can also serve as a starting point for generating variations. The approach supports early ideation while keeping the resulting artwork available for further editing.

CorelDRAW provides several visual styles for generated vectors, including Line art, Comic book, and Icon. Generated results remain refinable after creation. Color handling also follows the document’s color mode, helping generated artwork fit into an existing design workflow.

The result is intended for practical design production rather than concept generation alone. Vector objects can be resized, adjusted, refined, and incorporated into larger projects. Nodes and other vector properties are available for manual editing after generation.

The September update also positions Text-to-vector alongside existing Text-to-image capabilities. The combination gives CorelDRAW users options for developing concepts as either vector artwork or raster imagery, depending on project requirements.

Enhanced PowerTRACE Expands Bitmap-to-Vector Workflows

CorelDRAW’s September 2026 Update also introduces a substantial PowerTRACE enhancement.

The updated workflow includes a redesigned interface and improved object structure. Performance has also been enhanced, with tracing speeds of up to four times faster. Improved color handling provides more control over source images before vector conversion.

AI-powered background removal adds another step to the vectorization process. Background areas can be removed before tracing, allowing the subject of an image to become the focus of the conversion.

The changes have practical applications for logos, scanned artwork, illustrations, drawings, and other low-resolution source material. Vector output can support scalable production without relying on the original bitmap dimensions.

The combination of Text-to-vector generation and enhanced PowerTRACE creates two distinct ways to produce vector artwork. Text prompts can generate new concepts, while PowerTRACE can convert existing images into editable vector designs.

CorelDRAW Web Adds Fonts and Production Export

The September 2026 Update also expands CorelDRAW Web for subscribers. New capabilities include support for uploading personal, system, brand, and custom fonts for browser-based design work.

Font support addresses a common issue in browser-based design workflows. Missing fonts can affect typography when a document moves between desktop and web environments. CorelDRAW Web can now use uploaded fonts, helping preserve intended typography when working with CDR files in the browser.

DWG and DXF export has also been added to CorelDRAW Web. The formats support workflows involving plotters and fabrication, allowing browser-based projects to move toward production using established industry file formats.

Automatic cloud saving and improved file-renaming tools round out the CorelDRAW Web changes. The September update also brings AI tools to the browser experience, extending CorelDRAW’s AI-assisted workflows beyond desktop applications.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite remains available across Windows, Mac, and Web. CorelDRAW’s official product information identifies vector illustration, layout, photo editing, and typography as core areas of the suite.

AI as a Workflow Tool for Designers

The September update frames artificial intelligence as a workflow accelerator within CorelDRAW rather than a replacement for manual design work. Text-to-vector generation can provide an initial concept, while vector editing tools allow further refinement.

Such a workflow can reduce repetitive stages during ideation and revision. A designer working from a brief can test visual directions through text prompts before adjusting individual vector elements manually.

The same approach can support client revision rounds. Existing artwork can be used as a reference for generating variations, providing additional starting points during concept development.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026 also includes other AI-assisted capabilities introduced earlier in the release cycle:

AI background removalAI masking in Corel PHOTO-PAINTAI image generationAI Image remixing

Performance improvements accompany the September update. CorelDRAW reports smoother handling of complex files and improved responsiveness across everyday tasks. The broader 2026 release also introduced app launch improvements of around three times faster or more, along with smoother font handling and stability improvements.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026 Expands Vector Design Options

Consumer365’s recognition follows a significant update to CorelDRAW’s approach to AI-assisted vector creation. Text-to-vector AI adds prompt-based generation to a professional vector workflow while retaining editable output for further design work.

The September update also strengthens existing production workflows through enhanced PowerTRACE: improved color handling, AI-assisted background removal, faster bitmap-to-vector conversion.

CorelDRAW Web receives expanded font capabilities, DWG and DXF export, automatic cloud saving, and additional AI functionality for subscribers.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026 continues to support a range of design applications, including branding, signage, marketing materials, technical drawings, apparel, and large-format production. Production-focused tools include color management, Pantone Color Libraries, 1:1 scale design, color separations, soft proofing, and multi-asset export.

The September 2026 Update places Text-to-vector AI at the center of a broader effort to streamline vector creation. For designers exploring text-to-vector AI software, CorelDRAW now combines prompt-based vector generation with editable output, manual refinement, bitmap-to-vector conversion, and production-oriented design tools within the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2026 environment.

The 15-day free trial is available with no credit card required, and includes 200 AI credits. Using the COREL10 coupon code on checkout grants 10% off all editions of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite, available until October 31, 2026.

CUJO AI and F-Secure Announce Strategic Partnership to Deliver Seamless Consumer Security Across Home and Mobile

Published

Joint offering combines best-of-breed home network, endpoint and scam protection, helping Tier-1 CSPs strengthen consumer trust in the age of AI-driven threats.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CUJO AI, a global leader in cybersecurity, device and network intelligence for service providers, and F-Secure, a global leader in consumer cybersecurity and scam protection, today announced a strategic partnership to help the world’s leading Tier-1 Communication Service Providers (CSPs) deliver a seamless security experience that protects consumers across home networks and personal devices.

AI is rapidly changing the scam landscape, making fraudulent content easier to produce, more convincing and increasingly difficult for consumers to distinguish from legitimate interactions. At the same time, scams increasingly cross traditional boundaries between networks, devices, applications, and digital services.

The partnership brings together CUJO AI’s home network cybersecurity and granular device and network intelligence with F-Secure’s endpoint and embedded security capabilities, covering device, scam, identity and privacy protection. Together, the companies will help service providers protect consumers across the home network and individual devices while creating a seamless security experience at home and on the go. As consumers increasingly move between home broadband, mobile networks, applications and connected devices, their security needs extend across multiple environments. Yet protection is often delivered through separate products and experiences. CUJO AI and F-Secure are working together to simplify that landscape, helping service providers bring complementary cybersecurity capabilities into a more seamless and cohesive consumer experience.

“Consumers don’t think about security in silos; they simply expect to be protected wherever they connect,” said Remko Vos, CEO of CUJO AI. “We already enable service providers to protect millions of homes through advanced network-based cybersecurity, scam protection and device intelligence. By combining these capabilities with F-Secure’s endpoint security and scam protection expertise, we can help service providers close the gap between home network and device protection and create a more seamless security experience for consumers.”

CUJO AI provides cybersecurity directly at the home network level, protecting connected devices without requiring security software to be installed on each individual device. Its platform also provides deep intelligence into connected devices, applications and network behavior, helping service providers identify threats, understand their subscribers’ connected environments and deliver subscriber-facing security services at scale.

F-Secure complements these capabilities with endpoint and consumer cybersecurity solutions spanning device protection, scam protection, identity, privacy and embedded security, bringing visible value for consumers into everyday digital interactions. Together, the companies will reduce fragmentation between network and endpoint protection and help service providers deliver a more integrated security experience across home and mobile environments.

“The trust advantage for CSPs in the agentic AI era has never been clearer, and we recognize the importance of equipping the world’s leading providers to succeed in protecting their customers in a holistic way,” said Timo Laaksonen, President and CEO of F-Secure. “We are delighted to be partnering with CUJO AI to help us achieve this; this partnership demonstrates a natural evolution in providing the best-of-breed solution with holistic protection for an evolving threat landscape.”

Through the partnership, CUJO AI and F-Secure will collaborate with the world’s leading service providers on opportunities including integrated network and endpoint protection, seamless security across broadband and mobile environments, simplified customer experiences, and new security propositions designed to strengthen subscriber engagement, retention and monetization.

The partnership also creates opportunities to combine security and intelligence across the connected environment, helping operators better understand their customers’ devices and digital experiences while protecting them across multiple touchpoints.
