Does this tool actually generate vectors? Or is it really just an AI image generator with an image to SVG converter added on.

Based on the complexity of the logos it generates, I suspect it might be the latter.

Yet again, another company just launches a product that slaps a UI on top of stable diffusion and tries to make it pass as some revolutionary product.

What's a good alternative for generating a logo with similar tools to this?

Hire a designer.

How about for non-luddites?

Sketched something, described it and hit generate. Immediately asked to pay.

I can't even trial your product without signing up for a $19/mo subscription? That's not going to happen. Especially when your product doesn't seem like much more than a UI frontend for what I can do with MSPaint and free tools in just about the same amount of time.

Hire a designer that uses adobe illustrator.

As evidenced by any example I've seen from these "AI logo generators," image-generation models simply cannot do logos well. They always create insanely detailed illustrations (not logos) that feel like clip art or anime. Is this is a data-set issue (too much art station/deviantart scraping) or just a taste-issue on the part of the creators of these tools (bad prompting)? Or can image-generation models simply not do "…

I cannot imagine relegating something as important as your logo to some low effort AI bullshit. This is a symbol for your whole company. If you can't put in the effort here then what good are you?

The output you get from 99Designs is hardly better and this is the first step for tiny companies.

I’m glad you have the pricing clear in the front page so I won’t use it, unlike another similar service I tried that after wasting my time generating logos with prompts and details only to ask me to pay to download it..

What behavior is that? It seems like they are upfront about the cost right on the landing page.

Dark UX patterns.

What dark UX patterns are you referring to?

IMO Hacker News needs a new rule to ban this tidal wave of wrapper spam.

The rule could be "If your paid website/startup does nothing more novel than common-sense prompting Bing or Bard or Meta would do for free, it doesn't belong here".

I'd be surprised if this website gets a single paying customer at all.
