We've curated 49 of the best alternatives to Hippo, ranked by feature overlap, topic similarity, user ratings, and popularity. Illustro - AI Illustration Generator, Zyro, and Illustroke lead the list as the closest matches.
Updated May 18, 2026
The list includes 1 paid and 48 with a free trial, so whether you're looking for a no-cost replacement or a more capable paid tier, there's an option to compare. Hippo itself is free-trial, which makes free-trial alternatives the most natural starting point.
Many of these tools cluster around use cases like Api, Web Design, Text To Image, and Content Generation — the same problem spaces Hippo addresses. Cross-referencing tools that overlap on multiple topics gives a more reliable signal than category alone, because two products in the same category can still serve very different workflows.
Our ranking weighs eight signals: shared category, topic overlap, feature overlap, name and description text similarity (via PostgreSQL's pg_trgm and tsvector), Bayesian-smoothed user ratings, pricing-model match, popularity, and editorial overrides. Scores are then normalized within each tool's own candidate pool so the top match always represents the strongest available alternative.
