Wacom works with your software
Wacom products are crafted to empower creativity and boost productivity, seamlessly adapting to the software tools you rely on.

Essentially, wherever you can wield a mouse, a Wacom pen can take your creative and productive endeavors to new heights. From Adobe Creative Cloud to Google Suite, and even with educational software like Explain Everything and Kami, Wacom’s compatibility is unmatched.

Adobe & Wacom
Adobe is the industry standard software for photographers, designers, and other creatives – and many of the Adobe Suite’s features were designed with pressure-sensitive pen tablets and displays in mind. Wacom’s creative pen tablets and pen displays natively support Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Illustrator, and the full suite of creative Adobe products.

Boris FX & Wacom
The Boris FX Suite allows for Hollywood-grade video post-production and photo edits – from adjusting color levels to adding lightning to a scene. Boris FX video products are a combination of standalone applications and plugins for tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, and Avid Media Composer. A premium 12-month trial of Boris FX Optics, a photo special effects app, is included with any Wacom Intuos purchase.
Capture One & Wacom
Capture One is a powerhouse in the realm of photo editing, renowned for its exceptional capabilities in tethered shooting, RAW image processing, color grading, and workflow management. When using Capture One with Wacom’s industry-leading pen tablets and displays, photographers can elevate their post-processing workflow with enhanced efficiency and seamless operation. A three-month trial of the Capture One All-In-One bundle is included with every purchase of a Wacom Intuos Pro or Wacom Cintiq Pro.
Concepts & Wacom
Top Hatch’s Concepts is a next-generation power tool for sketching, design and illustrating from anywhere. Concepts is a flexible space to think, plan and create. Every beautiful stroke on the infinite canvas is an editable vector, which makes copying, tweaking, and sharing fast and fluid. It’s like pencil and paper, only better. A three-month trial of Concepts is included with every purchase of a One by Wacom or Wacom One.
Corel & Wacom
Create your next great piece of art with Corel Painter, Corel Painter Essentials, or Corel Aftershot Pro — and your Wacom product. Corel products are optimized for Wacom pens, enabling artists of all levels to experience an unforgettable painting experience with full pressure sensitivity and the highest level of precision. A premium trial of Corel Aftershot and Painter comes with every purchase of Wacom Intuos.

Kami & Wacom
Kami is a fantastic tool for teaching, and it’s made even better with Wacom drawing tablets.Kami transforms static, rigid worksheets into dynamic, collaborative, and interactive resources. With Kami, you can effortlessly craft instructional videos, employ a digital whiteboard during teaching sessions, annotate student work with comprehensive feedback, including written, audio, and video commentary. It’s a time-saving solution that streamlines the process of grading student assignments, enhancing the overall teaching and learning experience.
Pear Deck & Wacom
Pear Deck allows teachers to take existing content in slide decks and add interactivity — such as open response or multiple choice questions, draggable icons, or drawing options. In addition to this interactive content, a teacher can also share a link to a website for a video, research, or Google Form. It even empowers teachers to monitor student work in real time.
Collaboard & Wacom
Collaboard is a dynamic digital whiteboard software that combines the familiarity of handwriting on a traditional whiteboard with the added advantages of digital functionality. With Collaboard, you can effortlessly save, share, and organize your whiteboard presentations. The beauty of it lies in the unlimited whiteboard space it provides, ensuring that no ideas are ever lost, sparing you the need to scribble “DON’T ERASE” in the corner.
Explain Everything & Wacom
Explain Everything is a full-featured digital whiteboard that allows recording of video, hosting collaborative sessions, creating resources and revision materials, and seamlessly utilizing voice recordings.
Software bundles for educators at all levels
Today’s teachers are embracing technology — and Wacom drawing tablets are at the cutting edge of empowering teachers to create more exciting, engaging classroom experiences than ever before. Whether through real-time, collaborative annotation, live or recorded demonstrations of concepts, formulas, or diagrams, or making captivating slide deck presentations, Wacom tablets are a modern teacher’s best friend — especially when bundled with powerful education software like Pear Deck, Kami, Collaboard, and Explain Everything.

🎨✨ Navigating license agreements as an artist can feel like a maze. Too often, we’re faced with contracts that lean heavily in favor of clients, leaving us with little protection.
For artists like Zeynep Alpay, finding a way to make these agreements fair and transparent has been a true game changer. Now she can focus on what she does best, creating art, while the details are handled with Yuify.

"I love the new dial, it has haptic feedback, which I was always looking for ... I can feel its position, I can feel its options, and I can feel what I have to do to reach my aim.”

HOME. by @mahnoorahmad9 🏠☁️🪁📺
What do you see when you close your eyes and you dream of home?
For Mahnoor it`s the home she spent the 90s and early 2000s in.
The rooms brimming with stories and memories of aromas, anecdotes, routines, cozy moments, and a whole lot of love.
Mahnoor drew this from memory, looking at no pictures, because those special moments are forever ingrained as home.
