Gusta Draw

What it is
Gusta Draw is a free browser vector editor for creating logos, posters, stickers, app icons, and machine-cut designs. Its tools include selection, node editing, shapes, pen, pencil, polyline, text, and eyedropper editing for SVG paths. Folders, visibility and lock controls, and unite, subtract, intersect, and exclude operations organize and modify geometry. The editor offers linear and radial gradients, blur, drop shadow, palettes, type pairings, and a seeded roughen effect. Users can upload TTF or OTF fonts, turn text into outlines, and save embedded fonts. SVG files can be imported; SVG, PNG, and PDF can be exported, along with editable.gustadraw.json projects. Documents autosave in the browser, while rendering, geometry operations, and export run locally. After the page loads online, editing and export work offline; AI, cloud saves, and publishing need a connection. The AI copilot requires an account and Gusta tokens. The Free plan costs nothing. It runs on Android, iOS, and the web, adapting to phones and tablets.
