Icons8

Use it when

You need a curated icon and illustration library for product or marketing work, and occasionally want AI generation or cleanup (upscale, background remove, Mega Creator) in the same vendor stack.

What it does well

• Hand-drawn icons, illustrations, photos, and 3D assets in consistent styles for UI and marketing
• AI generators and editors (icons, illustrations, people photos, face swap, upscale, background remove)
• Mega Creator for composing AI and—on graphics plans—hand-drawn elements
• Designer apps and plugins, including Figma and Lunacy workflows around the library
• Clear plan split: Only AI tools vs AI and graphics (icons + library quotas + higher AI credits) vs Unlimited graphics

Skip it when

• You only need an open-source icon framework with free SVG inserts and per-set OSS licenses—that's Iconify
• Free's attribution link and format limits block a clean client handoff—upgrade before shipping
• Only AI tools won't cover hand-drawn library downloads—choose AI and graphics or Unlimited
• You want generative vector/icon systems as the primary workflow—compare Recraft

Fits your workflow

Search Icons8 or the Figma plugin for matching icons/illustrations, download into your UI or marketing kit, then use Mega Creator or AI editors only for gaps. Prefer AI and graphics when you need both library downloads and AI credits. Keep Free-attribution assets out of no-credit client deliverables.
