Market Opportunity
Hand-drawn, human illustration style is trending as a counterpoint to polished AI aesthetics. Websites, apps, and presentations use doodle-style illustrations to feel approachable and authentic. AI generates base sketches; human refinement adds authentic imperfection.
The Idea
Create hand-drawn illustration bundles. Use AI for initial sketch generation, then refine in Procreate or Illustrator for authentic hand-drawn feel. Packs: 'Business & Office Doodles', 'Technology & Devices', 'Nature & Botanicals', 'People & Characters', 'Food & Drink'. Consistent sketch style. Price $19–49.
Key to Success
- The IMPERFECTION is the value — too-perfect 'hand-drawn' illustrations defeat the purpose
- Create a consistent 'pen style' — same stroke weight, same level of detail, same level of 'sketchiness'
- Offer both black-and-white line art and color-filled versions — different use cases need different styles
