## 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.
