Category: Digital Assets / MarketplaceVerified for 2025
Top Recommended Replacements
Envato Elements
Best Value Upgrade
Why we like it
The 'Netflix' of assets; $16.50/mo for truly unlimited downloads of 60M+ assets (stock video, music, fonts, WP themes); includes AI tools in 2025; simple commercial licensing.
Keep in mind
Does not include the 'Premium' high-end WordPress themes found on ThemeForest; no item support from authors.
Creative Fabrica
FREEBest for Designers/Crafters
Why we like it
Aggressively priced (often ~$47/year on sale); massive library of fonts, SVGs, and graphics; includes 'Spark' AI tools; free trial gives 10 downloads; allows commercial use on almost everything.
Keep in mind
Weaker on code/web templates compared to Envato; search interface is cluttered.
FreeDesignResources
FREEBest Free Alternative
Why we like it
High-quality curated freebies; excellent for mockups, fonts, and UI kits; no subscription required; clear license terms for each item.
Keep in mind
Smaller library; you can't rely on it for specific niche needs (e.g., 'Dentist Website Template').
Gumroad
Best for Creator Support
Why we like it
Buy directly from the designer/developer; often includes access to private Discord communities for support; better for niche, high-quality UI kits and Notion templates.
Keep in mind
No central search (you have to find creators on Twitter/YouTube first).
Motion Array
Best for Video Editors
Why we like it
Superior video assets compared to Envato; includes a 'Review' tool for client feedback; plugins for Premiere Pro come included; owned by Artlist (high quality audio).
Keep in mind
More expensive than Envato Elements ($29/mo) if billed monthly.
UI8
Best for UI/UX Pros
Why we like it
The 'Premium' tier of design assets; highly polished Figma/Sketch kits that are actual production quality (not just pretty pictures); used by top agencies.
Keep in mind
Expensive (kits can be $98+); the 'All Access' pass is pricey.

FREEBest for Stock Photos
Why we like it
Completely free, high-resolution photography; easy to use; no attribution required (though appreciated).
Keep in mind
Everyone uses these photos, so your designs might look generic.
IconScout
FREEBest for Icons/Lottie
Why we like it
Massive library of 3D illustrations and Lottie animations; integrates directly into Figma/Canva; 'Unicons' set is free and open source.
Keep in mind
The best 3D assets are locked behind a subscription.
