+# Pricing Research for Midjourney Alternatives
+
+## Status: In Progress
+
+---
+
+## 1. Ideogram (ideogram.ai)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** "Free: Credit-based, Per image: 0.25-1 credit"
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+- **Free**: $0 (always free) - 10 slow credits/week, limited public generation, 2 canvases
+- **Basic**: $7/month (billed annually, save 12%) - 400 priority credits/month + 100 slow credits/day
+- **Plus**: $15/month (billed annually, save 25%) - 1,000 priority credits/month + unlimited slow credits [Most Popular]
+- **Pro**: $42/month (billed annually, save 30%) - 3,500 priority credits/month + unlimited slow credits
+- **Team**: $20/user/month (billed annually) - 1,500 priority credits per user/month
+- **Enterprise**: Custom pricing
+
+**Credit costs:**
+- Model 3.0: 2-6 credits per 4 images (depending on rendering: Turbo/Default/Quality)
+- Model 2.0: 1-3 credits per 4 images
+- Model 2a: 0.5-1.5 credits per 4 images
+- Upscale: 1 credit per 1 image
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free: 10 slow credits/week
+Paid: From $7/mo (400 credits) to $42/mo (3,500 credits)
+```
+The credit-based system is correct, but needs clarification that there IS a free tier with limited credits.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Civitai (civitai.com)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** "Free: Buzz credits for on-site generation"
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Civitai uses "Buzz" as their internal currency for on-site generation. Currently, only PREPAID memberships are available.
+
+- **Bronze**: $10/month - 10,000 Buzz per month
+- **Silver**: $25/month - 25,000 Buzz per month
+- **Gold**: $50/month - 50,000 Buzz per month
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Regular membership purchases are currently unavailable
+- Only prepaid memberships can be purchased
+- Buzz is used for on-site generation (txt2img, img2img, ControlNet)
+- Free users can earn Buzz through rewards and community participation
+- Models themselves are free to download and use locally
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free: Model downloads, earn Buzz through community
+Paid: From $10/mo (10,000 Buzz) for on-site generation
+```
+The current statement is misleading - it's not exactly "free" generation, it's paid memberships with Buzz credits.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Replicate (replicate.com)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** "Per image: ~$0.003 (cheap) to $0.03+ (premium), SDK: Python, JavaScript"
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Replicate uses model-specific pricing. Some models charge per output, others by hardware time.
+
+**Example per-image prices:**
+- FLUX Schnell: $3.00/thousand images = $0.003 per image (cheapest)
+- FLUX Dev: $0.025 per image
+- FLUX 1.1 Pro: $0.04 per image
+- Recraft V3: $0.04 per image
+- Ideogram v3 Quality: $0.09 per image (most expensive)
+
+**Hardware pricing (for time-based models):**
+- Nvidia T4: $0.81/hour
+- Nvidia A100: $5.04/hour
+- Nvidia H100: $5.49/hour
+- Nvidia L40S: $3.51/hour
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Pay only for what you use (zero-scale economics)
+- No idle capacity costs for public models
+- Private models billed for setup + idle + active time
+- Fast booting fine-tunes only billed for active processing time
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Per image: $0.003 (FLUX Schnell) to $0.09 (premium models)
+Or: Hardware-based pricing from $0.81/hour (T4) to $5.49/hour (H100)
+```
+The "cheap to premium" range is correct, but should clarify it varies by model. SDK info is correct but not pricing-related.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Runware (runware.ai)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** "Free: $10 credits (~16,000+ images), Per image: $0.0006 (FLUX Schnell), SDK: REST API, WebSocket"
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Runware offers $2 free credit for testing when you sign up with a business email (NOT $10 as stated in article).
+
+**Per-image pricing examples:**
+- FLUX.2 [klein] 4B: $0.0006 per image (cheapest available)
+- Z-Image-Turbo (512×512): $0.0013 per image
+- FLUX.2 [dev] (512x512): $0.0051 per image
+- ImagineArt 1.5 Pro (4K): $0.045 per image
+- Nano Banana Pro (1K): $0.138 per image
+
+**Video pricing examples:**
+- Seedance 1.5 Pro (480p, 5s, no audio): $0.06 per 5 seconds
+- Kling VIDEO 2.6 Pro (5s without audio): $0.35 per 5 seconds
+- Wan2.6 (720p, 5s): $0.5 per 5 seconds
+
+**Important notes:**
+- $2 free testing credit requires business email signup (not $10)
+- Per-image pricing varies by model
+- Powered by Sonic Inference Engine for optimized performance
+- 103+ models available (image, video, audio)
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free: $2 testing credit (with business email)
+Per image: From $0.0006 (FLUX Schnell) - varies by model
+```
+The free credit amount is WRONG in the article - it's $2, not $10. The per-image price for FLUX Schnell is correct.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Banatie (banatie.app)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** No pricing block
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Currently in "Active Development" phase with early access program.
+
+**From the website:**
+- "Free early access. No credit card required."
+- "Get Early Access" - waitlist based
+- "No credit card required • Free to start • Cancel anytime"
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Platform is in active development (shown as banner on homepage)
+- Early access is free
+- No public pricing structure yet (pre-launch)
+- Models powered by Google Gemini (2.5 Flash Image and 3 Pro Image)
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free for early adopters (active development)
+```
+The article currently has NO pricing info for Banatie, which is correct since they're in early access phase with no public pricing yet.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Krea.ai (krea.ai)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** "Free: Yes"
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Krea uses a compute units system with multiple pricing tiers.
+
+- **Free**: $0 - 100 compute units/day, limited access to models, 1 image concurrency
+- **Basic**: $9/month - 5,000 compute units/month, commercial license, full access to image/3D/lipsync models
+- **Pro**: $35/month - 20,000 compute units/month, all video models, 8 parallel image gens, 4 parallel video gens
+- **Max**: $105/month - 60,000 compute units/month, unlimited concurrency, unlimited LoRA trainings, relaxed generations
+  - Options: 40k, 60k, 80k, or 100k compute units
+- **Business**: $200/month - 80,000 compute units/month, up to 50 seats, business ToS
+  - Options: 20k to 1.5M compute units
+- **Enterprise**: Custom pricing - custom ToS, SLA support, analytics API
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Compute units system - different models consume different amounts
+- Annual billing saves 20%
+- Commercial license starts at Basic plan
+- Real-time canvas included in all plans
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free: 100 compute units/day
+Paid: From $9/mo (5,000 units) to $105/mo (60,000 units)
+```
+The current "Free: Yes" is too vague - should specify the daily compute unit limit and paid plans starting at $9/mo.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Freepik AI (freepik.com)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** No pricing block
+
+**Actual pricing:**
+Freepik uses an AI credits system. Currently showing special discounts (up to 61% off annual plans until Jan 18, 2026).
+
+**Regular annual pricing (with current discounts):**
+- **Essential**: ~$5/month (149.50 THB/mo, ~$4.68 USD) - 84,000 AI credits/year
+- **Premium**: ~$7/month (213.33 THB/mo, ~$6.67 USD) - 216,000 AI credits/year + Premium stock content
+- **Premium+**: ~$25/month (780 THB/mo, ~$24.37 USD) - 540,000 AI credits/year + Unlimited generations on selected models
+- **Pro**: ~$156/month (5,000 THB/mo, ~$156.25 USD) - 3,600,000 AI credits/year + 20% cheaper credits
+- **Enterprise**: Custom pricing
+
+**Important notes:**
+- Credits system varies by model (GPT Image 1.5: 150 credits/image, Nano Banana Pro: 250 credits/image, etc.)
+- Annual billing saves up to 61% vs monthly
+- Premium+ includes unlimited image generation with Nano Banana, Seedream, Flux (in Relax Mode)
+- Premium+ includes unlimited video with Wan 2.2, Hailuo 2.3 Fast, Kling 2.5
+- Commercial AI license starts at Essential plan
+- Free plan: 10 downloads/day (stock only, no AI credit info visible)
+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+Free: 10 downloads/day (stock content)
+Paid: From ~$5/mo annual (84k AI credits) to ~$156/mo (3.6M credits)
+```
+The article currently has NO pricing info, which should be added. Freepik's pricing is complex with credits system and varies significantly by model.
+
+---
+
+## 8. FLUX / Black Forest Labs (bfl.ai)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** No pricing block

+
+**Recommendation for article:**
+```
+API: From $0.014 per image (FLUX.2 klein) to $0.08 (Kontext max)
+Open weights: Free for non-commercial use
+```
+The article currently has NO pricing block. Should add API pricing and note open-weight availability.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Stable Diffusion 3.5 / Stability AI (stability.ai)
+✅ VERIFIED: January 18, 2026
+
+**Current info in article:** No pricing block
