These are great! Nice work.

I was a little confused on the pricing page[1]. Since the icons are free to download, is the main reason to pay to get access to Figma files?

It looks like the pro version has 27,000 icons (vs. the free 3,800) and bundles N requests for custom icons per month. Beautiful icon sets are a dime a dozen. But direct contact with the set's creator to design custom icons for your product/brand seems like a rare and attractive perk. I guess it depends on what exactly "request" means in practice

Let me explain: There are 7 styles of icons, totaling 28,000+ icons currently, with an additional 8,000+ icons nearly ready.

Of these, 3,800 icons+ (4k apprx.) are completely free. They are free in the web app, free in the Figma file, free in the plugins,free on npm (almost everywhere).

Hope this helps.

Ah, thanks. That definitely clarifies it.

For the pro license, am I able to build a tool that allows my users to search and select SVG icons to use in their webpages created in my app? My app is a website builder. I'd love to enable support for hugeicons. But maybe this is a gray area use case for the pro license?

Hi, really appreciate your interest.

For the use case you said, I see there's two possible way to use it,

1. Your users who are also Pro subscribers of Hugeicons can use their license keys to access and utilize Pro icons directly within your platform.

2. They only use free stroke icons from your platform.
