The new Wixel

The new Wixel takes creativity to the next level, combining advanced AI with more robust, flexible tools for building a much wider range of assets. It also includes all of the previous Wixel's image creation and editing tools in a new and improved format.
Now, you can simply describe what you want to accomplish and let Wixel generate complete assets for you. Aria, your AI design agent, is always there with design support, tips, and inspiration tailored to your project.

The old Wixel

The previous version of Wixel focused on helping anyone, regardless of design experience, craft stunning visuals quickly. You could use templates or start from scratch to make social media posts, invitations, banners, and more. Alongside basic design and templates, the old Wixel gave you a suite of creative AI features designed to make image generation and editing easy and powerful.

What if I already have a Wixel account?

If you already have a Wixel account from the previous platform, you can access both the old and new Wixel whenever you like. Your projects are safely stored on the platform where they were created.
Premium subscriptions are managed separately for each version and cannot be transferred. You can keep your plan for the old Wixel, or choose to cancel the automatic renewal. If you want to unlock premium features in the new Wixel, you'll need to upgrade your account.

To switch between platforms:

  1. Go to Wixel.
  2. Click your profile picture at the top right.
  3. Select Switch to the new Wixel / Switch to previous Wixel (old).
