CapCut unveils Design Studio 2.0 with infinite canvas, AI design agent & pencil prompting

CapCut has unveiled Design Studio 2.0, marking a substantial upgrade to its web-based design platform. The release delivers a reimagined and highly visual workspace tailored to how creative ideas develop, aiming to make design on CapCut more intuitive and exploratory.

Building on this new interface, users can now take advantage of an infinite AI canvas for freeform visual exploration and content composition. This canvas unifies references, drafts, assets, and iterations, providing a fluid environment to develop ideas. Following the major workspace overhaul, creative collaboration is enhanced with a real-time AI design agent, allowing users to co-create and refine visuals within the canvas.

Alongside these changes, Design Studio 2.0 introduces pencil prompting, letting users circle, brush, edit, and shape ideas visually. Smart layer splitting enables individual editing of subjects, backgrounds, text, and objects within any project. While exploring new directions is made easier with the “One more” button, an integrated inspiration hub provides quick access to CapCut assets and license-free image libraries within the workflow. Users of these new AI-driven features are granted 20 free generations per day, setting clear expectations for daily creative capacity.
