Why is Krumzi the best alternative to Piktochart?

1

Social media-first design vs infographic-first retrofitted for social

Piktochart was built for infographics and data visualization — social media design was added later. Krumzi is purpose-built for social media: every AI model, every design decision, every workflow is optimized for creating social content that gets engagement.

2

AI generates from scratch around your brief — Piktochart's AI fills templates

Piktochart's AI works within its template system — selecting and populating existing layouts. Krumzi's AI generates original designs from your text description: layout, typography, colors, shapes, and composition created specifically for your brief.

3

Brand Kit built into the AI pipeline at every plan — not a $24/month upgrade

Piktochart locks Brand Kit behind its Business plan at $24/month (annual) or $49/month. Krumzi's Brand Kit is available on the Pro plan at $19/month and is automatically applied during AI design generation — not a separate manual step.
