Studio Lifetime
Early bird
Early bird price. Standard price at launch is €249. Early bird price for seats. Standard would be €.
Each extra seat is €49 early bird (€99 standard), one-time. Add a second seat and your library and projects become team-shared automatically, with per-user attribution. No upgrade needed.
What Studio includes
These are built today. What's left before Studio opens is launch prep, not features. Buy to lock the early-bird price and get invited the moment the doors open.
- Cloud-saved projects. Your work persists across devices, with multiple canvases per project.
- Your personal panel library. Pick the cabinets you actually use from the master catalog, group them by brand, keep them across sessions.
- Your logo on every export. Every map you hand over arrives looking like yours.
- Save your brand theme (planned). Set the colors your team uses on every job, then make one the default so every map you hand over reads as yours.
- Brand-matched themes (planned). Point Studio at your site or logo. It pulls your colors into a map-ready palette that stays readable on LED.
- Logo on objects. Place your logo or a client logo directly on a panel object.
- Read-only project sharing (planned). A branded link clients and colleagues can view without an account.
- Add teammates. Each gets their own login. Shared library, shared projects, see who edited what.
- Refund anytime before launch, no questions.
- Lifetime price locks in the moment you pay.
- You'll get the lifetime license the moment Studio ships.
Before anything hits the screen
Someone has to figure out which pixel goes where
That's HappyMaps. You design the layout, export the map, and load it into whatever runs the show.

A note from Wouter
Why I'm building Studio
I built HappyMaps because I needed it. I'm building Studio because some of you have asked how to keep using HappyMaps as your work gets more serious, and how to do it as a team.
A one-time payment is how I keep going without turning HappyMaps into another subscription you have to justify every month. You buy in once. You have it forever. And the direction Studio takes is shaped by the people who use it.
Free HappyMaps stays free. I'm not going to paywall what's already yours, and new free features keep landing regardless. Studio is the extra layer for the people who want their work saved and their team in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why a lifetime license instead of a subscription?
Because you should pay once and have it forever. A lifetime license respects your time and your wallet. You buy it, you have it. No yearly renewals, no "is this still worth it" loop.
What's built, and what's left before launch?
Studio is built: cloud-saved projects, your personal panel library, logo on objects, teammates, and the login layer to reach it all. What's left before I open the doors is launch prep, not features. The final checks and deployment, the unglamorous pre-flight part. A couple of extras come after (brand-matched themes, read-only sharing). Early bird buyers get full access the moment Studio opens, included.
What happens to free HappyMaps when Studio launches?
Nothing. Free HappyMaps stays free, forever. Every feature you use today stays free. New free features (multi-canvas, color picking, more panels) will keep landing. Studio is purely additive: it doesn't take anything away from the free tool.
When does Studio actually launch?
Studio launches when it's ready. Early bird buyers get full access the moment Studio launches. I'd rather ship things right than ship them fast. Waitlist signups will be the first to know.
How do seats work? Can I add teammates later?
You buy Studio once for yourself at €149 (early bird) or €249 (standard). When you need a teammate, add a seat for €49 early bird or €99 standard, one-time. The moment you have 2+ seats, your library and projects become team-shared automatically. No separate "Team plan" to upgrade to.
Can I cancel or get a refund?
It's a one-time payment, so there's nothing to cancel. If you buy Studio and it's not for you, email me. I'll refund without questions, anytime before launch. The full policy is in the terms.
Is HappyMaps Studio the same as remap.video?
No. They are separate products from the same maker. HappyMaps generates pixel maps for LED video walls. remap.video turns those pixel maps into rendered video. You can use one without the other.
Who is building this?
Wouter. I built HappyMaps because I needed it. I'm building Studio because enough of you have asked for the things only an account can give you.
What exactly am I paying for before Studio launches?
You're locking in the lifetime price (€149 instead of €249) and full access the moment Studio opens. Studio itself is built. What's left is the launch prep before the doors open. Everything on the Studio roadmap is included, no extra payment.
When will I actually be able to log in?
Studio is built, login included. What's left is the launch prep before I open it up: final checks and deployment. I'll email every early bird buyer the moment login is live.
What if you never finish Studio?
You get a full refund, no questions. You can request one anytime before Studio launches. The free tool you already use stays free either way.
