"After three decades of expertise, the moment had come to simplify complexity and reimagine customer service. The result: the world’s first visual, AI-powered PreProductionStudio—seamlessly uniting planning, design, and production with intelligence and intuition.

Our Vision – Where Precision meets Intelligence

Pre Press Studio is a visual-first AI tool that transforms how we manage, review, and deliver complex print files — starting from something deceptively simple: the plan.

In the fast-paced world of trade shows, retail architecture, and branded environments, things move fast. But print files often don’t. They lag behind — full of human error, invisible mistakes, missing crop marks, wrong scaling, unresolved fonts. And every error costs time, money, trust.

PPS changes all of that.

PPS in action

Built for Complexity. Designed for Clarity.

At Studio M, we believe that AI should not just automate — it should anticipate. With PPS, we’ve created a smart and scalable solution that elevates an entire industry’s workflow. From drag-and-drop booth plans to real-time PDF diagnostics, we bring clarity to chaos and remove the friction from design-to-print processes.
Because what if the plan wasn’t just a reference — but the interface?

PPS empowers booth builders, creative teams, and print producers to collaborate effortlessly — without emails, phone calls, or guesswork:

+ Upload a floor plan and anchor your entire project visually
+ Define print surfaces with precision and context
+ Invite designers to upload directly to the exact object
+ Let the X-Ray engine scan, report, and even auto-correct file issues
+ Auto-name, auto-archive, auto-hand-over – just like that

From project kick-off to final ZIP hand-off, every file is tracked, checked, and ready. No PDFs lost. No errors ignored. No more "Did we fix this?"

The Bigger Picture – More than Just Trade Shows

What started with exhibition spaces now scales across industries: Retail networks with hundreds of stores. Events with dozens of printed touchpoints. Visual merchandising teams managing ever-changing environments.
Take a photo of a faulty print at a venue. Upload it. PPS recognizes the object, identifies the file, and retrieves the original setup — even years later. This isn’t just error prevention. It’s intelligent design continuity.

A Studio M Original – From Frustration to Innovation

PPS was born out of real pain points: 25,000+ print files per year. Six full-time staff just to fix other people’s mistakes.
A workflow that was broken — and an industry that thought it was normal.
We didn’t.
So we built a better system. One that empowers creators and producers. One that shifts responsibility to where the files begin — and supports it with tools that make doing it right, easy.
