Production at scale, without the busywork.

Monarch is a suite of plugins that takes over the repetitive part of large-batch print and digital production, right inside the Adobe apps you already use.

The suite

One plugin per app, one bridge between them

Every Adobe app gets its own Suna-Monarch panel. The Monarch bridge connects them, so work moves between apps instead of being rebuilt by hand.

Bridge
How it works

Install once, automate everything

A small menu-bar app runs the bridge and installs a plugin into each Adobe app for you.

Open the dashboard

Start Monarch from the menu bar and press Install next to each Adobe app.

Connect to Monarch

Open the panel in any app. The badge switches to Serving the Monarch once it's connected.

Run the batch

Point a tool at a folder, a CSV or a selection, and let it work through hundreds of files.
