The AI-Powered Canva Alternative
Tired of template-based design? Krumzi's AI generates social media designs from scratch — no templates, no design skills needed. Try free.
Why is Krumzi the best alternative to Canva?
AI generates your design from scratch — no template picking required
Canva's "AI design" (Magic Design) selects and fills in existing templates. It is template selection with automation, not design generation. Krumzi's AI actually creates the design — layout, composition, color palette, typography, shapes, and visual hierarchy — from your text description. You describe what you want; Krumzi builds something that has never existed before. No template hunting. No "this looks like everyone else's post."
Krumzi makes every design decision so you don't have to
In Canva, even with AI assist, you are still the designer: picking fonts, adjusting colors, moving elements, fighting with layering, resizing manually. Krumzi's AI handles all of it — typography selection, color relationships, layout balance, shape usage, visual hierarchy, spacing — based purely on what you describe. Non-designers get results that look professionally designed without needing to know what kerning, contrast ratios, or grid systems are.
Under 60 seconds from brief to finished design vs. 30+ minutes of template customization
The average Canva session for a social media graphic: searching templates (5-10 min), picking one (5 min), replacing text (5 min), adjusting colors/fonts (10-15 min), fixing broken elements (5-10 min). Krumzi: describe your design in one sentence, receive a fully formed design in under 60 seconds, make any edits you want.
