Cut by a real maker
From one photo to a finished acrylic cut
Nicola used StencilCut, saved the SVG to LightBurn, adjusted the size, and cut the piece on her own laser.
“I’m just so happy someone has made a site for this kind of laser cutting. Saved the SVG to LightBurn, adjusted size, and cut. Very easy.”

Common questions
Questions, answered
What file types do you export?
DXF (polyline and spline) and SVG. Both work with LightBurn, RDWorks, and every major laser and CNC software.
What laser cutters does StencilCut work with?
Every major brand: Glowforge, xTool, OMTech, Epilog, Trotec, Boss Laser, and any machine that opens SVG or DXF. CNC routers and plasma cutters work too.
Do you store my photos?
Temporary job uploads are scheduled for deletion after they are more than 2 hours old. If you enable design history, generated outputs are saved separately for the retention shown in your account. We never use your images to train our own AI models.
What if the stencil has floating pieces?
Auto-bridging connects them automatically. You can also fix them manually in the bridge editor.
How many credits does each action cost?
A standard AI design costs 1 credit. Wall Art costs 2 credits. The first refinement of a paid design is free for 48 hours. Further refinements cost 1 credit each. SVG and DXF downloads are free. One-time pack credits and bonus credits do not expire. Subscription credits reset each billing month and do not roll over.
What if a job fails?
A credit charged for an AI generation or refinement is automatically returned when that job fails on our side. Completed results use the stated credits even if you decide not to use them.
