Xara

Quedlinburger Strasse 1, Berlin, 10589, Germany

Overview

Xara develops Xara Cloud, a 100% browser-based drag-and-drop editor that helps non-design professionals produce designer-quality documents and marketing assets. The product includes pre-made templates for social graphics, flyers, brochures and presentations, plus reusable custom templates. Features include smart grid alignment, collaboration tools, and automated brand application (logo, fonts, colours) across templates. Xara Cloud can generate colour schemes from uploaded images and provides professionally created palettes to speed design. CEO Matt Bolton frames the product as closing the gap between basic document editors and professional design software, and cites brand-consistency research (23% average revenue impact) to justify the business case. The company is Berlin-based and has disclosed outside funding support.
