Question 1

What is Loomgrain?

Accepted Answer

Loomgrain is a home for your creative work. When you upload something, it becomes an asset that keeps its source files, versions, variants, comments, approvals, and the places it’s been used together in one place.

Question 2

Do I have to stop using Photoshop, Figma or Premiere?

Accepted Answer

You don’t need to stop using them. Keep creating in the apps you already love, and bring your work into Loomgrain. When you download a source file, edit it in your app, and upload it again, Loomgrain adds it to the same asset as the next version.

Question 3

Can I edit in Loomgrain?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for the small changes that come up in review. You can crop, rotate, and adjust brightness, contrast, warmth, and color, and each edit is saved as a new version. For bigger edits, keep using the app you made the work in, and Loomgrain will keep track of every file you bring back.

Question 4

What can I put in it?

Accepted Answer

You can upload creative work in almost any format, including photos and camera originals, layered PSDs, PDFs and Illustrator files, design files from Figma, Sketch, XD, Affinity, and Procreate, video, motion projects, audio, and 3D models. Loomgrain shows a preview for nearly all of them, lets you turn a PSD’s layers on and off, page through a PDF, or turn a 3D model around, and keeps every original exactly as you uploaded it.

Question 5

Can I bring in work from Dropbox or Google Drive?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can. Choose Import from Dropbox or Import from Google Drive, sign in, and pick what you want. Whole folders from your computer or Dropbox keep their structure, so each folder can become a project or a collection, and Loomgrain reads when each photo was taken and what it was taken on.

Question 6

What’s the difference between a version and a variant?

Accepted Answer

A version is an updated take on the same piece of work, like v1, v2, and v3, and every one of them is saved. A variant is your work adapted for somewhere else, like a 9:16 story or a 16:9 web banner, and it stays connected to the work it came from. A rendition is the same work saved in another file format, like a JPEG of a PSD.

Question 7

Can a client review without signing up?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they can. Send a single link and choose whether people can view, comment, approve, or download. Comments are pinned to the exact spot people click on, and each approval is linked to the version that was approved. For longer jobs, you can also invite a client or freelancer to just one project, and they won’t see anything else in your workspace.

Question 8

Is this just a cloud drive?

Accepted Answer

Loomgrain does a lot more than a cloud drive. A drive stores your files, while Loomgrain understands your creative work. It knows which files belong to the same piece of work, which version is the latest, which one was approved, and where it’s been used.

Question 9

Does it work in my browser and on my phone?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it does. Loomgrain works in any recent browser, including Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox, on both computers and phones, so there’s nothing to install.

Question 10

What happens to my work if I cancel?

Accepted Answer

Your work is never deleted when you cancel. You can keep using your paid features until the end of your billing period, and you can download all of your original files at any time.

Keep your creative work organized, not lost in folders
