What our research says

getimg.ai

The right pick when you want a dozen third-party models on one bill instead of five separate subscriptions. The wrong pick when you need the single best model for one specific job and will pay for it.

Pros

  • Entry tier is $10/month with commercial rights, below most single-model subscriptions
  • API is billed per generation and does not require a paid plan
  • Model roster is refreshed fast as new image and video checkpoints ship

Cons

  • Everything is credits, and video generation drains them far faster than images
  • API credits are separate from plan credits, so you track two balances
  • Free plan is personal-use only and excludes editing features and the model trainer

Leonardo.Ai

Leonardo is the generator to pick when you need control over the model rather than one house style, and it is the only major one with a real API and custom training. Token accounting is the tax you pay for that flexibility.

Pros

  • Large library of fine-tuned model presets instead of a single opinionated model
  • Custom model training on your own images is available without an enterprise contract
  • A genuine documented API, which the obvious competitor still does not have
  • Free tier of 150 daily tokens is enough to evaluate properly

Cons

  • Token costs differ by model, resolution and feature, so per-image cost is hard to predict
  • 150 free tokens go in roughly ten generations
  • Concurrency and queue position are tier-gated, so cheap plans wait
  • Roadmap now serves Canva's product priorities, not standalone power users

Choose Leonardo.Ai if you need

  • Game and product teams that need consistent assets from a fine-tune they control
  • Anyone who wants generation, canvas editing and upscaling in one place
  • Developers who need image generation behind an API rather than a chat window
  • Users who want to train a model on their own reference set
