Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Looka
A logo and brand kit from a few answers
Looka generates logo options from a business name and a handful of style choices, then sells you the files. Buying the brand kit rather than the logo alone gets business cards, social templates, letterheads and invoices built from the same mark. The one-time packages are the cheaper road if the logo is genuinely all you need. Full ownership is stated either way.
Our note
Take the $65 one-time package rather than the subscription unless you actually want the templates, because vector files are the part you will still need in two years. The generated marks are competent and rarely surprising, which is the honest trade at this price.
Vexels
Print-ready merch designs by subscription
Vexels sells the artwork rather than the shirt: thousands of print-ready designs licensed for merchandise, plus an editor and a mockup generator for putting them on a product photo. A download limit per month is what separates the tiers. For a seller who can pick a niche but not draw, this replaces commissioning every design. The catalogue leans hard into slogan tees, and it shows.
Our note
Check the licence tier against how you sell before buying, since merchandise rights are the whole reason to be here and they are what differs between plans. Treat the lifetime offers with the caution any undated discount deserves, and note the monthly-billed price is not published at all.
