Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 11 of the 50 other tools for selling digital products we grade
The Hungry JPEG, once a marketplace for fonts and graphics, now lets people describe a design and get four vector takes back, paid for with credits. Made vectors can be shared into a library that others download for credits, and a free browser editor exports SVG or PNG.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about The Hungry JPEG, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You pick prompts and credit amounts, and manage what's shared.
- 1
Best for making cutting-machine vectors to order with credits
New vectors go into a public library unless you switch sharing off, and the files aren't exclusive.
- 2
What it costs
Paid plans start at $5 for 500 credits, one-time top-up with no subscription.
- 3
You can try it first
Free sign-up gives 50 credits, valid for 30 days.
- 4
It runs on Web
Web.
- 5
Vectors made to order
Describe a design and get 4 takes from 20 credits, cleaned to a transparent background with one layer per color.
- 6
Free browser editor
Recolor layers, add text, resize the artboard and export SVG or PNG as often as needed, at no credit cost.
- 7
Shared design library
Shared vectors can be downloaded by anyone for 3 credits, and the maker earns 2 of them.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 11 of 50
That is against the other tools for selling digital products we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace The Hungry JPEG you would be making an image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for making cutting-machine vectors to order with credits
The Hungry JPEG is no longer a font marketplace: it generates vectors for a credit price, from $5 for 500 credits. New vectors go into a public library unless you switch sharing off, and the files aren't exclusive.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | $5 buys 500 credits, about 25 generations or 100 vectors, and credits never expire. That's a one-time price, with the category's one-time middle also at $5. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Joining free gives 50 credits valid for 30 days, with no card. After that you pay. |
| Features | C | Vectors made to order, a browser editor, a shared library and cutting-machine files. It does that one job; it is a narrow one. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. You pick prompts and credit amounts, and manage what's shared. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only, with no integrations or apps listed. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who The Hungry JPEG is for
- Fits if you cut vinyl or paper and want vector designs without drawing them
- Works for occasional use where a $5 top-up lasts
Who it is not for
- Watch out: new vectors go to the public library unless you turn off Share all 4
- Not for you if you need exclusive designs, as others can download the same shared file
- Tight if you want unlimited use, since standard 4 vectors cost 20 credits, detailed 25, premium single 40
- Skip it if you expected the old font marketplace, as it's no longer that
Good to know
Good for
- Sellers who need quick SVG art for shirts, stickers and cut files
- People who want to pay per design instead of a subscription
- Creators who want to earn credits from shared vectors
Worth knowing
- The site is no longer the font and graphics marketplace it was; the about page describes it as a place to make vectors to order.
- New vectors are shared to the public library unless "Share all 4" is switched off.
- Credit costs vary: standard 4 vectors cost 20, detailed 25, and a premium single vector 40.
- Files are not exclusive, so others can download the same shared design.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace The Hungry JPEG you would be making an image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 28 of the 50 other tools for selling digital products grade higher. It costs $5, paid once.
What you could make
- Digital downloads and templates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. The Hungry JPEG’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
