What Is AI Box Packaging Design?

AI box packaging design is the process of using artificial intelligence to create custom box artwork, structural templates (dielines), and 3D mockups from natural language descriptions. Instead of hiring a graphic designer or learning Adobe Illustrator, you describe your product, brand, and preferences — and the AI generates a complete box design.

Traditional box design costs $500–$5,000+ and takes 2–3 weeks. AI box design is free and takes 60 seconds.
