The ongoing-feedback alternative to Domestika
Domestika sells beautifully produced video courses you buy one at a time and watch. Croqui works the other way around: you keep drawing, and a council of three AI mentors keeps reviewing your actual work. A course ends; your practice — and your feedback — doesn't.

Why artists choose Croqui
A loop, not a one-off
A course ends after the last video. Croqui keeps responding to every new drawing you make, day after day.
It looks at your page
A produced course shows the instructor's project. Croqui reviews yours — the specific drawing in front of it.
Three reads per piece
Three AI mentors, each with a focus, surface what a single walkthrough never could.
Frequently asked questions
Is Croqui a good alternative to Domestika?
Yes, if you want continuous feedback rather than a one-time course. Domestika sells produced video courses to watch; Croqui reviews the drawings you make with three AI mentors and points to what to practice next.
Does Croqui sell courses like Domestika?
No. There are no per-course purchases. Croqui is a practice-and-feedback tool: you upload your work and get structured notes, as often as you draw.
How much does Croqui cost?
The free plan is free forever, with no credit card required to start. Pro is $6.99/mo and Premium $16.99/mo — less when billed yearly.
Can Croqui replace a human mentor?
No. It's the closest thing to a mentor read when one isn't around — fast and consistent, but not a replacement for real human critique.
What kind of drawings can I submit?
Anything: sketches, studies, watercolor, or digital illustration, at any stage, in English or Russian.
