It looks like a total copy of Canva. Please explain why it is not :)

@wagner_brenner1 I'm sorry you think that way. But can you go out and check our MAD button. You'll then realise why Picmaker is different. I'm sure you will have your mind blown.
@wagner_brenner1 Hi Wagner - Sure, we're happy to explain. There are 3 BIG differences between our competitors and us (although, in reality, there are many more):
1. AI-based designs: Imagine if you could change entire design templates with the click of a button. You could change fonts, pictures, backgrounds, all with a click. No other provider including Canva offers this at the moment. You could turn entire designs upside down whilst still retaining the core theme. Go on, give it a try, you'll surely like it.
2. Background removal: Picmaker offers free background removal unlike our competitors. Our background removal tool is driven by AI and can help you create designs smoothly.
3. Customer support: We don't take ages to respond to customer issues and queries. We have learnings from Animaker, which is our flagship product. Animaker has more than 12 million users and very few pending issues at any given moment. That is because we are relentlessly focused on solving customer issues - free/paid doesn't matter to us. TLDR: we know how to help customers.
4. Multiple folder structures - You can create as many folders as you want. You can can create as many layers of folders inside each folder. This is what helps agencies and SMBs work efficiently for different clients. Even individual YouTubers have lauded this feature because they get to organize their video thumbnails and look them up easily.

@jagadeash_s1 I don't think that way - just sharing my first impression based on its UI and trying to understand how it is different. Thank you for pointing the MAD button I'll check it out.
@karthik_subramanian Thank you for sharing these features. I like the idea to randomize layouts automatically and work on trial and error in some situations - especially for non-designers. Better folder structure is something I miss on your competitor and I'll definitely try it out. And customer support is always important :) Tks again for clarifying.
@wagner_brenner1 Sure, Wagner. Every feedback that you give is extremely valuable to us because you are investing your time to tell us how we could be better everyday. Thank you, and we will strive hard to ensure you have an awesome user experience. Best wishes!
@xem8tqbvoqwyhfu It is! :) Please let us know if you're looking for any specific features. Thank you for your support.
Hi, Do you have an API? We have a real estate CRM, it might be nice if we can automatically upload real estate photos to a picmaker user account so they can create content from their photos.
Regards
James.

Hello PH Family 👋
I am Raghav, CEO and founder of Animaker, the parent company of Picmaker.
TL;DR⚡️
MAD Button + Overused Templates = Unique Designs = Picmaker 2.0
We brainstormed a simple way to share what we did for the last one week and we came up with the above equation. If you like it, please comment, if not, read the explanation below. Thank you! 😉
Picmaker 2.0 is an AI-enhanced DIY design platform that lets anybody create awesome professional designs in minutes. Best of all - you don't need any design knowledge to get going on Picmaker. Create awesome YouTube thumbnails, Instagram posts, ads, logos, stickers, presentations, and more like a pro.
Long Draft 🗒
When we launched Picmaker 1.0 in PH in 2018, the response was overwhelming. We were the first to help YouTubers create DIY YouTube thumbnails in minutes. All that they had to do was pick a template, make edits, and swoosh - their designs were ready! 🔥
As a result, we signed up about 250k users until December 2020, who created 1.1 million stunning designs with Picmaker.
We were truly humbled by it. 🙏
That also led us to an awakening - an awakening that our users need more than just YouTube graphics.
So, today, we’re glad to launch Picmaker 2.0 with even more design categories. If you’re looking to create amazing designs without a steep learning curve, you know where to start. 🙌
The best part? We’ve enabled AI in our design platform, so you can get awe-inspiring suggestions for - fonts, backgrounds, colors, and pictures. Or, flip entire designs upside down.
Long story short: No two designs will ever be the same again.
Besides, I’ll be frank - nobody has even acknowledged this yet. (More about this later).
With Picmaker, you get access to:
💥 Thousands of premium design templates for free
💯 100 million+ jaw-dropping stock images
💫 Drag and drop 100k icons, illustrations, and design objects
🎯 Social media-ready designs

🎆 An AI-enhanced MAD Button to enhance your designs in one-click

Besides, tons of professional design tools to get you started in seconds. FOR FREE!

A special thanks to @kevin for hunting our product 🙏
@raghavan_r @rnsk Thanks Suhithkumar, Please try and share your feedback. Also happy to know if we need to improve anything.
@raghavan_r Have been a huge Picmaker fan! Your Youtube thumbnail templates are simple, yet effective. I also love your new features like drop shadow and MAD button.
@sanjana_murali Thank you, Sanjana, so nice of you to hear from you. Will keep our eyes peeled for your YouTube videos - and make sure you use our thumbnail templates 😜
@abirxhossain Of course, Abir. :) Our MAD button itself is enough for our users into racing fans. Plus, there are many more features we are planning. Our product and design folks are working very hard for it.
@abirxhossain Sure, Abir, will think about it. Thank you very much for your suggestion and please do let us know if you wish us to enhance anything else :)
It's hard for a marketer to not use Picmaker, any Animaker's product for that matter! And the MAD button seems like such a cool feature! Can't wait to try it out! Congrats team, on this drool-worthy product!
@nandhini_t_s Thank you, Nandhini, those are awesome thoughts. You are always welcome with your suggestions. Take care and see you around :)
@ankitsharmaofficial Thanks for taking the time to comment. We can be a bit cocky and say it's better than Canva. But we will leave the decision to you. If you need any help with Picmaker, please do let us know. We're MAD to help you become a kickass designer.
I've heard high praises and user stories from many of my friends on Picmaker. Something they say has to be right? correct? Which is why I have also started using it and so far its been great.
@novnish_ramesh Awesome, brother Novnish. Thank you for your support, feel free to use it for your YouTube videos on content marketing.
I have been using Picmaker for over a year now and i find it much much better than Canva. All of our blog creatives, social media posts, YouTube thumbnail maker are now created using Picmaker by not just me but our entire team. We easily share and collaborate on Picmaker using a common Picmaker workspace!
Having used a lot of background removal tools i can safely say that the AI powered background removal tool is one of the best that's available and it's completely free as well. Do check out Picmaker out and i'm sure you'll keep going back!
@surya_shanmugam Thanks for the response and love ❤️, Have you tried Mad button?
Before joining Picmaker I worked as a marketer with Hippo Video.
One of my main struggles was overcoming my fear of design.
From blog banners to social media posts, I always needed the help of a designer.
Once I joined Picmaker, I got the power to design. With our templates and MAD button, I am now able to design everything from banners to posts in minutes.
If you haven’t tried this out yet, go ahead.
Picmaker will blow your mind.
Love the trailer video. The MAD button is so hooking and amusing, congrats.
Product looks awesome, I used logojoy in the past to create AI logos and this seems to take it to the next level with AI designs. I think this is the future of designs as it saves us non-professional designers and indie makers so much time. I want to try the MAD button.
@mohamed_habib1 Absolutely, Mohamed - we are thrilled to hear your kind words. We want awesome designers like you to use our MAD button ;) Would you be using Picmaker for any particular feature, Mohamed? Would you want us to work on anything else on Picmaker, please? Your suggestions are welcome :) 🙏
@mohamed_habib1 We're super thrilled to hear this. Take our MAD button for a test ride and i'm sure you will be mind-blown. If you need any help or guidance, feel free to contact any of us. We're MAD to help you out.
@balaji_shetty Go go go for it Balaji, we're sure you won't be able to stop using it ;) On a serious note, please check out our premium design templates and stock images. There's so much to do in here.
This is my first real job out of college and kind of feels like a MAD dream come true.
Here are 3+1 reasons
1. The product is awesome and ROADMAP is designed to blow our competitors out of space
2. We're literally the first tool to blend the power of AI with graphic design (we call it the MAD button)
3. The team and the working atmosphere is just LIT.
But above all that I have a fourth and a very important reason here
4. The management team trusted me with their new product (Picmaker) and I'll always be grateful for that
I pursued an electrical engineering degree in college and I was no good. Had a ton of backlogs while trying out a bunch of other stuff on the side. Eventually digital marketing and content creation stuck with me.
So I just jumped into freelance and learnt Digital marketing with practical work.
After about 2 years as a freelancer, I started applying for multiple jobs and eventually found this team. Everyone from the HR team to the management team saw me for my talent and no for my failures. They were ready to take a chance at a failed engineering graduate. They were ready to offer me a chance at a fairly new product (Picmaker) and i'll always be grateful for that.
I made a lot of mistakes, experimented with so many things while learning to a better marketer.
I learnt a ton of stuff about digital marketing and I still am learning new things from my team.
Now we are working towards a terrific product that I am sure will break through the design space.
I'm sure that together we will propel Picmaker into outer space. Together we will make it invincible.
If you're looking for an AI powered design tool, do check out our tool. And please do leave an UPVOTE.
Maybe even a comment if you are generous. It does help the algorithm rank our product on top.
P.S: When you UPVOTE this product, you're not just supporting a business. You're supporting the hordes of misfits and creative individuals (like me) who are working on Picmaker.
Stay safe
Stay MAD
@movaid7 Hi Muhammad - Thank you for your thoughts. I will try my best to answer on both your comments in this one.

Thank you!
P.S. If you wish, and if you have the time, we could show you a demo of how we are different from the competition. It will not take more than 10 mins. The very fact that we are launching on Product Hunt means we have a lot of differentiated features. We will launch many more such features, and if you wish, we will keep you posted about it.
@brandoncorbin Hi Brandon - thank you for taking the time out to review our product, mighty kind of you to do that. We noticed that you couldn't download your design as a PDF. In fact, it works, it is just that it takes a while to download. We are working on it and will make sure you're able to download it super-fast.
@brandoncorbin Hello Brandon Corbin - Thank you for this great video, really wonderful to see your review. We noticed that you couldn't download your design file. We checked it at our end for three browsers - Chrome, Firefox, and Safari - we were able to download it. Sometimes, when browsers are not updated to their latest version, it could cause a bit of a delay in downloading files. Could you please tell us which browser and version you used for your review? We will make sure to look into it. You may even write to us at yo@picmaker.com or chat us as well.
Thank you very much for you efforts.
Best wishes,
Team Picmaker
