Share As Image is becoming Stencil

By Adam Rotman on October 13, 2015 36 Comments

In just a few weeks, we’ve got an incredibly exciting new update coming that is going to change everything! Don’t worry though, it’s all really great stuff and you’re going to be really happy about what’s coming…

You might have noticed things were a little quiet in terms of product development on Share As Image over the last little while. That’s because we’ve been busy speaking to hundreds of you and learning everything we possibly could about making the product better.

Most recently, we’ve been heads down re-building everything from the ground up, based on your feedback and everything we’ve learned. There’s one thing I can tell you for sure: It will be worth the wait.

Introducing Stencil

In addition to a complete overhaul of the product and too many new incredible new features to mention here, I want to tell you about one of the biggest updates of all…We’ve changed our name!

Towards the end of 2015, we’re saying goodbye to the name Share As Image and will be officially re-launching under our new name: Stencil

 

Stencil

 

To say the least, we’re extremely excited about the new brand and we’ve spent a great deal of time creating it. (…It was a lot harder than we thought!) We wanted something that was short, memorable and described what our product does – and I believe that’s exactly what we got. Through this rebrand process, we discovered that what we offer isn’t just a way to create images. It’s a starting point for your social media, blogging, presentation and email marketing efforts. At its core, it’s a productivity and efficiency tool more than anything else. We learned how Share As Image saves our customers time and lets them create beautiful visuals without having to hire a world-class designer…hey… just like a real-world Stencil!

Over the next few weeks, we’re going to be revealing some of the ridiculously incredible new things that will be part of Stencil.

Great news for existing PRO customers

If you’re an existing PRO, you’re in luck too…we’re going to be transitioning everyone over and you’re going to get all the new incredible features at no extra charge. You’ll always get to stay at the price you’re at regardless of any changes to the price of Stencil going forward!

As we get closer to launch, we’ll keep you updated on how your account will transition over and make it as smooth as possible. We can’t wait to show you all the amazing new things you’re going to be able to do with Stencil…and of course, it’s been of utmost importance that we keep things just as simple and easy as you’re used to with Share As Image.

Stay tuned, lots of amazing stuff to come!

    Please don’t ever email me with that subject line again. I started to sob and scared everyone around me. I started screaming, “NOOOOOOOO,” and was asked if I was alright.
    I then read the rest of the email and sit here in a cold sweat. Thankful you are just re-branding and not taking “Stencil,” from me.
    Excited to see what is being planned from the future.
    Now, I just need to go wash my face. My eyes are so puffy.

      Haha oh man…sorry about that Frank! I needed to make sure you opened the email…guess it worked 😛

      Seriously though, sorry for scaring you like that…it’ll all be worth it though, some really incredible stuff to come!

      We’ll send out so more details in the coming weeks.

    All the best for the launch. Would love to write a blog post about this new package. Is there a demo video I can use for the same?

      Thanks so much! Probably best to hold off on the post for right now until we launch. We’ll definitely be making some videos to show what Stencil can do, etc. Stay tuned, we’ll send a big email to announce more stuff once we launch 🙂

    Great new name, and I am looking forward to the new features, especially text bounding boxes, one of my own suggestions. (I hope.)

      You’ll still be able to download all the images you created with Share As Image. We’re still ironing out some details around you being able to edit the images, but hoping that will be possible.
