AI, or artificial intelligence, can create artwork, fonts, wall art, and more, making it a lucrative way to create digital products on Etsy. Per Etsy’s policies, you can sell AI-created products on the platform. However, you must disclose that the product has been created with AI and alter the product in some way. Etsy may require evidence of human manipulation, so always save the AI version of the artwork and the final product with your human edits. 

So, what are the best digital products to create with AI and sell on Etsy? Keep reading for the top seven.

1. Customized Digital Art and Illustrations Generated with AI

Personalized digital art and illustrations created with artificial intelligence are one of the most popular items to sell on Etsy. 

One of the biggest reasons is the quick turnaround. Unlike a traditional painter, illustrator, or artist, you can create customized digital art or illustrations much quicker using AI software. 

The custom aspect of these listings also means that you can typically charge more because you are offering the client a unique piece specifically made for them.

2. AI-Generated Calligraphy Fonts 

An interesting AI-generated digital product niche is fonts, specifically calligraphy fonts, which many businesses and individuals use on their marketing materials, email signatures, and more. 

Consider offering customized AI-generated calligraphy fonts to companies and individuals looking for a unique, personalized signature, logo, or effect on their marketing materials. 

3. AI-generated Marketing Mockups

Another fantastic Etsy niche is mockups. Many businesses use mockups to create visually appealing examples of their products in use, such as their artwork on different walls.

Many industries could use AI-generated mockups, including: 

• Frame mockups used by photographers or artists

• Etsy listing mockups or templates

• Fashion and streetwear mockups

• Mockup infographic templates (or custom orders)

• Kitchen counter mockups to feature food, meal prep services, and more

Check out the following example with an Etsy seller that listed a bundle of 50 AI-generated frame mockups.

4. AI-generated Social Media Templates

AI software is so advanced that it can now create entire marketing campaigns, including social media templates. Many AI software can also resize your template into multiple formats for different social media platforms, like Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and more, saving you time and energy manually resizing these templates. You can offer AI-generated social media templates as a themed bundle or customized templates for an even larger price point. 

5. Customized Printable Wall Art and Home Decor

Many people have a vision for the artwork and home decor they would like to feature in their homes. However, they lack the artistic ability or time to create their ideal result. 

Fortunately for them, many Etsy sellers are offering customized printable wall art and home decor to bring the customer’s creations to life. 

This process works with the customer providing examples of the style of art they like, a detailed description of the artwork, and their general vision for the piece, such as preferred colors and stylistic elements. You generate the artwork and tweak it using AI software to meet their preferences, making this a great niche if you enjoy working with buyers.

6. AI Digital Scrapbooking Templates and Elements 

Love digital scrapbooking? Sell digital scrapbooking templates, backdrops, sticker templates, images, and more. The digital scrapbooking niche on Etsy is enormous, so this is an excellent opportunity to break in with AI-generated scrapbooking bundles. 

Use AI software to design attractive, thematic scrapbooking backgrounds, layouts, stickers, or images buyers can use on digital scrapbook pages.

When creating this product, I recommend having a specific theme, such as cozy Christmas vibes, anniversaries, or back to school. Market your bundles to a specific niche on Etsy to stand out. 

As you grow your Etsy shop, consider creating an “ultimate” bundle with multiple bundles and themes for even higher profits. For example, you could make an ultimate holiday bundle with your Valentine’s Day, Christmas, Halloween, and Thanksgiving-themed templates and elements. 

7. Personalized digital cards and invitations

Invitations, digital greeting cards, and printable greeting cards are a huge niche on Etsy, with practically unlimited opportunities for different holidays, events, weddings, thank yous, and more. With the help of AI, you could easily offer personalized invitations and greeting cards for clients looking for that extra unique wedding or bridal shower invitation or a truly incredible birthday card for their special someone. 

I love the following example featuring a personalized anniversary card with a custom AI-generated portrait of the couple on the front of the card. The seller also offers additional items, like adding a colorful heart or heart garland to the front of the card. In addition, they provide a quick turnaround time of less than 24 hours - perfect for busy shoppers who needs their anniversary cards quickly!

The option to sell AI-generated art on Etsy opens up even more opportunities for sellers like myself who don’t have a background in graphic design. I love that the sky's the limit with AI art and designs as long as you, or the client you’re working with, have a great idea to list.
