Plotterpix vs. The Competition
We did the homework so you don't have to. Here's how Plotterpix stacks up against the leading drawing-bot on the market — Foto Master's Draw Me Bot.
We respect what our competitors build — Foto Master makes a polished product. This page sticks to what's published on their official Draw Me Bot page (fotomaster.com/pages/draw-me-bot) so you can decide for yourself.
Same idea. Very different price.
Both bots draw photos with real pen on real paper. The difference is what you pay, what you keep, and how far you can scale.

The Drawing Bot That Brings Photos to Life
Credit Where It's Due
Foto Master ships a generous starter kit. We'll give them that.
1,000 sheets included
The Draw Me Bot package ships with 1,000 sheets of 6×4 in / 300 GSM drawing paper — enough for a full season of events out of the box.
12 markers in the box
Twelve drawing markers come bundled, so you can start drawing without ordering consumables on day one.
Hardware bundle
Their Turn-Key package includes an iPad Pro 11" and a MacBook Neo, so operators with no existing hardware can plug in and run.
What that means in dollars
Comparable starter setups, side by side.

Hardware-only comparison. Draw Me Bot adds about $1,884/yr in recurring software fees from year 2 onward (DMBot license, FMX license, Cloud subscription, and 24/7 support, all billed annually); PromptPhotobooth ships with a lifetime license. Prices reflect Plotterpix list prices and the published Draw Me Bot pricing on fotomaster.com at the time of writing.
Why operators are switching to Plotterpix
You own the software, forever
PromptPhotobooth ships with a lifetime license — no annual renewals, no $1,884/yr software fees, no surprise invoices when the season starts.
Your styles, your prompts
Two preset styles aren't enough for serious operators. With Plotterpix you get 18+ presets plus an open prompt system to design styles that match every client and brand.
Scale without buying more controllers
One $349 PromptPhotobooth Box drives up to 4 Plotterpix units at once. Add bots, not laptops.
Bring your own hardware
Already own a Mac or Linux PC? Skip the bundled iPad Pro and MacBook. Your computer, your camera, your call.
Real pen on real paper
Fine-tip archival ink on 250 gsm acid-free cardstock — true hand-drawn aesthetics, no compromises.
Touchpix-ready out of the box
Plug into the industry-standard Touchpix app on iOS, Android, iPad or Mac, and the bot becomes a drawing printer for any photo booth setup.
