In the past, I have also had good response from Syndetics.

Also, I met a representative at NCLA this year from ChiliFresh (
https://home.chilifresh.com/en/products/book-jacket-cover-art ) .  They
provide discovery services and they also provide book jacket cover art for
a flat annual rate as a standalone service.  I don't have personal
experience with them but it might be worth investigating.
