Customily offers live previews and a complexity surcharge, with no AI sign designer or per-position pricing. Sign Customiser has live previews and surcharges too, prices per letter, position, length and area, and adds an AI Sign Designer, lit neon and SVG files.

## The shortanswer

Sign Customiser is the better choice for selling signs. It has an AI Sign Designer that turns an upload into a checked, priced sign design, pricing per letter, by letter position, by material length and by area, and ten live sign types. Customily has no AI sign designer: its AI tools are generic AI image tools, including DALL·E text-to-image generation.

Customily is good at breadth. It personalises apparel, jewellery, drinkware and gifts, and sends orders to print-on-demand partners such as Printful and Gelato. If signs are a small part of your range, that matters. If signs are your business, the deciding factor is how an order is priced and handed over. Customily does not list neon, channel letter or lightbox signs, and it charges by personalisation complexity. Sign Customiser prices per letter, by position, by letter material length or by area.

## Where the realdifferences show up

- ### An AI Sign Designer

    Your customer uploads an image and gets a design for LED neon, channel letter, metal cut-out, stencil or lightbox, checked for that sign type before they see it. It opens in the customiser with a live price, neon shows as lit tubes, and the design is delivered as SVG. Customily has generic AI image tools, including DALL·E text-to-image generation, but no AI sign designer.

- ### Advanced sign pricing

    Price per letter, or set a different price for each letter position, so early letters can be free. Or price by letter material length, or by area. Customily lists an extra charge by personalisation complexity, and no letter or size pricing. A 60 cm neon sign and a 120 cm one should not cost the same.

- ### Built for signs

    Sign Customiser offers ten live sign types, from neon to Braille. Customily is a general personaliser and does not list neon, channel letter or lightbox signs, so you start without sign logic.

- ### Previews that look right

    Neon shows its jacket colour with the lights off, then the lit glow. Lightbox signs get a 3D view and backboards can be priced by area, so shoppers know what to expect.

## Which onefits your store?

### Choose Sign Customiser if

You sell signs and want the customiser to quote, price and hand off the order for you.

- Signs are your business: neon, channel letter, lightbox, metal, wood, stencil or Braille.
- You want customers to upload artwork and get a checked, priced sign design.
- You price by letter position, letter material length or area.
- You want to work out each sign's shipping charge, or pass its weight to Shopify's rates.
- You want a flat plan with every feature included and no per-item fee.
- Your manufacturer needs an SVG and an order email, not a print-on-demand queue.
- You sell through Shopify or WooCommerce, or quote on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow or Etsy.

### Customily may suit you if

You sell other personalised products and signs are a small part of the range.

- You sell mostly apparel, gifts or jewellery, with signs a small part of the range.
- You want automatic fulfilment through print-on-demand partners such as Printful or Gelato.
- You sell on Amazon, BigCommerce or Magento.

FAQ

## Questions aboutCustomily vs Sign Customiser

[Visit the help centre](/help/)

Is Customily good for neon signs?

Customily is a product personaliser for print-on-demand, apparel, jewellery, gifts and laser-cut items. Its site and Shopify listing do not list neon, LED, channel letter or lightbox signs. Sign Customiser is built for them. Neon shows its jacket colour with the lights off and a lit tube glow, and [Advanced Letter pricing](/models/) follows the material length of the letters.

Does Customily create production files for signs?

Customily generates print-ready files in formats including PDF, AI, PNG, EPS and DXF. Orders then go to print-on-demand partners or a CSV export, and its site does not show a manufacturer email. Turn on SVG generation and Sign Customiser adds an SVG production file to each order, then emails your assigned manufacturer with links to the SVG and the original upload. We do not make or ship signs, but the [Find Sign Makers](/find-sign-makers/) directory helps you find a manufacturer.

How much does Customily cost compared with Sign Customiser?

Customily lists $49 a month per platform on its main plan, plus $1 for each unique personalised item in the first 100 each month, then $0.50 up to 1,000. [Sign Customiser plans](/pricing/) run from Seed at $29 for 5 orders to Ultimate at $299 for 50+ orders, with no per-order fee. At 100 personalised items a month, Customily costs $149 ($49 plus $100), so it can cost less than our matching plan. Sign Customiser's price stays flat however complex the sign, with every feature on every plan.

Can I move from Customily to Sign Customiser?

You can try Sign Customiser before you decide. The 7-day free trial includes every feature and needs no card. Build a customiser for one sign type, set one of the [three pricing models](/models/) and check the preview. You can keep Customily for non-sign products while you test.

Which platforms does each one support?

Customily's main plan covers Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, WooCommerce and Shoplazza. Wix, Squarespace, BigCommerce and Magento need its Standalone plan from $299 a month. [Sign Customiser sells through](/integrations/) Shopify and WooCommerce, and quotes on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow and Etsy, with Quote Mode (add to cart on Wix, Squarespace and Webflow needs custom work). It also offers a hosted customiser link and the API on every plan. We do not support Amazon, BigCommerce or Magento.

Does Customily have an AI sign designer?

No. Customily lists generic AI image tools, including DALL·E text-to-image generation. It does not list an AI sign designer. Sign Customiser's [AI Sign Designer](/ai-sign-designer/) takes an uploaded image and returns a design for an LED neon, channel letter, metal cut-out, stencil or lightbox sign, checked for that sign type before the customer sees it. It opens in the customiser with a live price. A delivered design costs one credit, and failed attempts cost none.
