Past software Ĭricut's first software was Cricut design studio. Following the backlash, its CEO apologized, and Cricut scrapped the plans a few days later. This announcement was criticized by users at the company's unofficial subreddit, and a petition was launched in protest. On 12 March 2021, Cricut announced it would be limiting users to 20 free uploads per month to Design Space at an unspecified date the old unlimited uploads would remain available under a paid subscription. To use Cricut cutters, users must use the company's own web-based design software, Design Space, which allows users to draw designs, select and combine designs from its own online library, or upload vector or bitmap files they have created in other software. The cartridges are interchangeable, although not all options on a cartridge may be available with the smaller machines. While some cartridges are generic in content, Cricut has licensing agreements with Disney, Pixar, Nickelodeon, Sesame Street, DC Comics and Hello Kitty. Currently over 275 cartridges are available, with new ones regularly released. Each cartridge provides for hundreds of different cuts.
There are two types of cartridges, shape and font. Designs can be cut out on a PC with the Cricut Design Studio software, on a USB connected Gypsy machine, or can be directly inputted on the Cricut machine using the keyboard overlay. The purpose of the universal overlay is to simplify the process of cutting by only having to learn one keyboard overlay instead of having to learn the overlay for each individual cartridge. However recently Provo Craft has released a "Universal Overlay" that is compatible with all cartridges released after August 1, 2013. The plastic keyboard overlay indicates key selections for that cartridge only. Each cartridge comes with a keyboard overlay and instruction booklet.

The Cricut operates as a paper cutter based upon cutting parameters programmed into the machine, and resembles a desktop printer. Both the Cricut and Cricut Explore Air 2 require mats and blades which can be adjusted to cut through various types of paper, vinyl and other sheet products. The largest machine will produce letters from a half inch to 23 1⁄ 2 inches high. The original Cricut machine has cutting mats of 6 by 12 inches (150 mm × 300 mm), the larger Cricut Explore allows mats of 12 × 12 and 12 × 24. The machines are used for cutting paper, felt, vinyl, fabric and other materials such as leather, matboard, and wood. Cricut is an American brand of cutting plotters, or computer-controlled cutting machines, designed for home crafters.
