Canva alternatives built by indie makers
Design tools launched on ShipX by independent makers: focused products for graphics, mockups, branding and more, most built by one or two people.
Made by indie makers
Every product here was launched by a maker with fewer than 1000 followers on X, usually a solo founder or a small team you can actually reach.
Focused, not everything
Most do one job well rather than everything at once. Each page shows what it does, who it’s for, its pricing model and its tech stack.
Real feedback
On ShipX, upvoting starts with a visit to the product’s website, so upvotes, comments and reviews come from people who looked.
