Patternly vs Repper

Patternly is a web tool that turns uploaded artwork or written descriptions into seamless patterns for fabrics, wallpaper, crafts, and digital products. It supports ordinary seamless repeats and multi-directional layouts built from rotated, mirrored, and scaled arrangements. Live previews show tiled results in 3×3 or 5×5 grids. Output sizes range from 500px swatches to 10,000px production files, with exports in PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF, TIFF, and WEBP at up to 600 DPI in RGB or CMYK. Designs remain in a dashboard for later review and re-export, with unlimited projects. New users receive 10 credits without entering a card; each pattern uses 3 credits. One-time packs cost £3.00 for 10 credits, £5.00 for 20, £9.00 for 40, or £20.00 for 100. An Unlimited plan costs £39.99/year and includes unlimited generations, commercial use, and a priority queue. The maker says users can sell resulting designs for fabrics, wallpaper, wrap, and scrapbooks.

Repper turns a source image into a seamless, tileable pattern that users can adjust and export. It offers more than 30 tiling styles, including classic wallpaper groups and the Penrose Diamond, plus color controls and effects such as duotone, black-and-white, gradients, halftone, and Metamorphosis. Users can start from bitmap or vector images or browse more than a million Unsplash photos inside the app. Repper also offers 3D previews of products including clothing, pillows, scarves, notebooks, and fabric. Export formats include JPEG, PNG, and SVG/vector; the Pro membership page lists exports up to 35k × 35k pixels. Desktop and tablet access runs in a browser without installation, and Repper Mobile runs in a phone browser on iOS and Android. The mobile and desktop apps are separate, so designs cannot be accessed across both. Repper Mobile is free, but uploads are limited to the first two weeks and exports are simplified. Pro Monthly costs $12.99 a month, including taxes, and includes commercial use rights, 3D preview and export, and account sync and backup.
