Best unDraw Alternatives for 2026

What makes unDraw popular — and where it falls short

unDraw has built a massive following because it's genuinely good: open source, regularly updated, one-click color customisation, and no attribution required. For a SaaS landing page it's almost perfect.

But there are real limitations:

• One art style only — every illustration looks identical. If your brand isn't "clean flat tech", unDraw can feel generic.
• Limited industries — unDraw skews heavily toward tech, productivity and general business. Healthcare, education, food, retail and other verticals are underrepresented.
• No people customisation — all figures use the same skin tone and body type.
• No animation support — illustrations are static SVGs with no built-in animation.

1. SketchValley — Best for variety and multiple styles

Best for: Projects that need more than one art style, or illustrations across specific industries
License: Free for commercial use, no attribution required
Formats: SVG, PNG

SketchValley is the closest thing to "unDraw but with more variety." The library spans flat, hand-drawn, 3D and minimal illustration styles — and is organised by industry (healthcare, tech, education, finance, food, retail and more) and use case. You can filter by style and industry to find exactly what you need.

Unlike unDraw, SketchValley also includes a suite of free tools for customising illustrations after download:

• Color Customizer — change any color in the SVG to match your brand
• SVG Animation tool — add CSS animations without writing code
• SVG to PNG converter — export at any resolution
• SVG Optimizer — reduce file size by 30–60%

Where unDraw beats it: unDraw's single-color customisation (change the whole palette in one click before downloading) is faster if you just want a quick brand color match.

2. Open Peeps — Best for people illustrations

Best for: Human-centered illustrations, team pages, onboarding flows
License: CC0, no attribution, free for commercial use
Formats: SVG, Figma

Open Peeps by Pablo Stanley is a modular system of hand-drawn people illustrations. You mix and match body poses, clothing, accessories and hair to create unique characters. The CC0 license means you can do anything with them.

Where unDraw beats it: unDraw has scene-based illustrations (people doing things, using devices, in context). Open Peeps is character-only — no backgrounds or scene contexts.

3. Humaaans — Best for diverse character customisation

Best for: Diverse, customisable human characters
License: CC0, no attribution required
Formats: SVG, Figma, Sketch

Humaaans lets you mix and match human illustrations with customisable skin tones, hair colours, clothing and poses. Particularly strong for teams that need to represent diverse groups of people. Works best directly inside Figma or Sketch where you can drag and drop components.

4. Storyset — Best for animated illustrations

Best for: Illustrations with built-in animations
License: Free with attribution; paid removes attribution
Formats: SVG, PNG, animated SVG

Storyset's standout feature is animated illustrations — many scenes come with smooth CSS animations pre-built. Available in multiple styles (flat, outline, hand-drawn). The free tier requires attribution; a paid plan removes the requirement. A good pick if animation is a priority and attribution is acceptable.

5. DrawKit — Best for hand-drawn aesthetic

Best for: Warm, hand-drawn illustration style
License: Free core packs, no attribution required
Formats: SVG, PNG, Figma, Sketch

DrawKit offers polished hand-drawn and flat illustration packs in multiple color variations. The quality is high and the hand-drawn style feels warmer and less "corporate" than unDraw. Free packs cover most common use cases; premium packs expand the range.

6. Blush — Best for custom character creation

Best for: Unique character illustrations, indie/creative brands
License: Free for personal; commercial requires paid plan
Formats: SVG, PNG, Figma

Blush hosts illustration packs from independent artists. You customise them in the Blush editor or Figma plugin. The variety of artist styles is the biggest draw — you can find aesthetics that unDraw simply doesn't have. Check the license per pack as terms vary.
