Haikei

Haikei turns fifteen generator families, from blurry gradients to polygon scatters, into customizable SVG or PNG assets. Choose a family, tune the canvas, colors, and shape controls, then roll toward a background worth keeping.

What is Haikei?

The workspace puts its whole box of geometric ingredients up front: blobs, waves, peaks, steps, scattered symbols, and a crumpled-looking low-poly grid. Pick one and the panel narrows the problem into concrete choices such as canvas size, direction, color, complexity, and contrast. The result is less like drawing from scratch and more like giving a tidy shape machine increasingly specific instructions. SVG and PNG buttons sit at the end of the visible workflow, so the page is aimed at making an asset you can carry into a site, slide, post, or larger design rather than keeping you inside a heavyweight editor.

What you can do there

• Choose a visual generator
• Adjust canvas, color, and shape parameters
• Randomize a visual variation
• Export the result as SVG or PNG

Why we picked it

Fifteen distinct starting points give this little tool unusually broad range without hiding the premise behind a sprawling application shell. The visible controls are specific enough to shape an idea, while the documented randomize step leaves room for productive accidents—the design equivalent of shaking a snow globe with better color choices.

How to get the most from it

Start with Blob, Wave, or Blurry Gradient and settle the canvas size before polishing details. Change one family-specific control at a time, use the dice-style randomizer when the composition stalls, and export SVG when you want to recolor or edit the result later; choose PNG for a ready-to-place bitmap.

Good to know

The Basic plan is listed as free with no signup or credit card, fifteen generators, unlimited SVG downloads, and unlimited medium-resolution PNG downloads. Personal and professional use is allowed without required credit, but the terms described on the pricing page restrict using the output to offer a competing generator service. Project saving, keyboard and touch behavior, sound, accessibility, and offline use are not documented well enough to promise.
