The Design-First Fotor Alternative
Go beyond photo editing. Krumzi generates complete social media designs from text — no templates, no photo editing workflow.
Why is Krumzi the best alternative to Fotor?
AI-first design tool vs photo editor with AI bolted on
Fotor started as a photo editor and has progressively added AI features on top. Krumzi was built from the ground up as an AI design tool. The difference shows in the output: Fotor helps you edit photos and apply effects; Krumzi generates complete social media designs from your text description.
Transparent credit system vs a 1.1-star Trustpilot billing nightmare
Fotor has a 1.1-star Trustpilot rating, with widespread complaints about unauthorized charges, difficult cancellation, and hidden billing practices. Krumzi offers transparent pricing with no hidden charges — cancel anytime with no penalties.
Creates social media designs vs creates edited photos
Fotor's strength is photo editing: retouching, filters, HDR effects, AI enhancement. Krumzi's strength is design generation: creating complete social media posts with layout, typography, colors, shapes, and composition from your text description. Different tools for different jobs.
