QuQi vs Recraft: the asset maker and the crew around it

Recraft is the one to pick for vectors, logos, icons and a style held from reference images, and its studio gives a designer fine control. QuQi is for the business that needs posts more than assets: it makes each picture, carousel or video from your website, publishes it to nine channels on a calendar, and writes articles and works on your SEO too.

Choose Recraft if
  • You need a logo, an icon set or a pattern as a real vector.
  • You are a designer and want a canvas with your own fonts.
  • You want a style kept from a handful of reference images.
Choose QuQi if
  • You want posts out every day with nobody exporting files.
  • Your website already sets the look, and posts should follow it.
  • You want articles, videos and SEO handled by the same crew.

Using Recraft and QuQi together

Recraft is a good place to make the pieces your brand reuses: the logo, an icon set, a pattern or a product graphic. Put the logo into QuQi’s brand kit and the crew uses it on every picture and closing card, and drop finished graphics into the chat to post them with your caption.

For a launch, design the hero visual in Recraft and let QuQi carry the rest of the week: the daily posts, the Friday video and the article that goes with them.
