Canvy Is Great for Static Mockups.
What About Video?
Canvy delivers 1,500+ rooms and Etsy export. But if you want cinematic video reels, multi-angle mockups, and a portfolio that embeds motion—there's a better fit.
Canvy is a web and mobile art mockup tool with 1,500+ scenes and Etsy integration. It does not produce video reels or multi-angle views per room. MOCKLIO is the Canvy alternative built for artists who need cinematic video reels, front/left/right angles per scene, and a video-integrated portfolio—all in one web-based workflow.

What MOCKLIO Gives You
The weekly selling system Canvy doesn't build.
Multi-Angle Room Mockups
Front, left, and right views per scene. More angles = more weekly content from a single artwork—and more spatial trust for buyers.
Cinematic Video Reels
10-second HD animations with professional camera movements. Built for Reels and TikTok. No editing skills, no software, no studio.
Video-Integrated Portfolio
Your username.mockl.io page shows mockups and reels side by side—a full buying experience in one shareable link.
Web-Based & Cross-Platform
No app required. Works on any browser—laptop, iPhone, Android. Start a drop on your lunch break, finish it on your couch.
Weekly Drop Infrastructure
A system, not just a tool. The workflow is upload → mockups → reel → portfolio → post. Repeat. Every week. Under an hour.
Art Photo to Published Drop in Under an Hour
1. Take a clean artwork photo
Phone camera, natural light. No studio needed. MOCKLIO handles the rest.
2. Generate 2–3 room mockups
Use different angles — front, left-angle, right-angle — to build a week's worth of visual variety from a single artwork.
3. Generate one cinematic reel
Match the camera movement to the mood: slow push-in for intimate work, wider sweep for large-scale or landscape pieces.
4. Publish your portfolio page
Add the new piece with mockups and the embedded video. Update your link-in-bio to the live URL.
5. Export to Etsy / your shop
Best static mockup becomes your hero listing image. Better photo = higher conversion on existing traffic.
6. Post the reel to Reels / TikTok
Caption: price, dimensions, availability. CTA: 'link in bio.' The reel drives reach; the portfolio handles the close.
7. Reply to every DM with your link
One link replaces the photo dump. The system answers questions before buyers ask them.
"But Canvy Has More Rooms…"
It does. Here's why that's not always the point.
“Canvy has more rooms. Why would I switch?”
You probably shouldn't—fully. Canvy's room volume is real. Keep it for Etsy static images. Use MOCKLIO for video, multi-angle mockups, and portfolio. They solve adjacent problems.
“Canvy already has a portfolio builder.”
A subdomain portfolio with no video integration and minimal SEO lift is a starting point, not a destination. MOCKLIO's portfolio pages embed your reels and inherit domain authority—structurally different.
“I don't have time for another tool.”
MOCKLIO consolidates what you're already doing badly or skipping. One workflow: upload → mockups → reel → portfolio → post. Under an hour. That's the entire point.
“My prints aren't 'cinematic.'”
Cinematic is a buyer trust signal, not an art quality judgment. A $50 print in a slow push-in reel inside a beautiful room converts better than the same print in a flat photo. Always.
What to Actually Remember
Canvy is a legitimate mockup tool with 1,500+ rooms, Etsy integration, and art inventory management.
Canvy's core gaps: zero video output, single angle per room, static-only portfolio with limited SEO.
The best Canvy alternative adds video reels and a video-integrated portfolio—not just more mockup options.
Cinematic video reels get 3–5× more algorithmic reach on Instagram Reels and TikTok vs. static posts.
Multi-angle mockups (front, left, right) give buyers spatial context—critical for originals over $500.
A username.mockl.io portfolio with embedded reels handles the buying journey in one shareable link.
Canvy and MOCKLIO can coexist: Canvy for Etsy exports, MOCKLIO as your weekly system hub.
One format is not a system. You need mockups + motion + portfolio—every week—to sell consistently.
