Switch models without rewriting the prompt and compare the results side by side. ### Priced by the model you pick Each model shows its credit cost before you generate: 1 credit on Z-Image Turbo, 5 for Nano Banana or Kontext, up to 23 for GPT Image 2.5 at 4K (the 4K tiers are on paid plans). One balance, no per-model subscriptions. ### Prompts and pictures kept together Every result lands in My Creations with the prompt and settings that made it, so a good result is easy to rerun or tweak later. ### Charged only for finished images A failed or timed-out generation costs nothing. Batches of 2 or 4 run in parallel and you pay per image returned. ## Every image model in one place Pick any of these from the Model menu above; the price is shown before you generate. Each name links to what that model is good at.

The “Try an example” button in the prompt box loads prompts written this way; load one and edit it. - Step 2 ### Pick a model and a size Z-Image Turbo is the fast, 1 credit default. Choose a square, wide or portrait frame and how many images you want. - Step 3 ### Generate, then iterate Results appear in seconds and are saved to My Creations. Change one thing in the prompt and run again rather than rewriting from scratch. ## How to write a prompt for Text to Image ### Subject first Lead with the thing you want: "a matte black ceramic mug" beats "an image of a mug that is black". ### Light and lens "Soft window light from the left, shallow depth of field, 85mm" changes more than any adjective. ### Framing Close-up, wide shot, overhead. Say it, or the model decides for you. ### Skip the filler "8k, masterpiece, trending" does nothing on these models. Spend the words on what is in the frame. ## Pricing Every tool draws from one balance. 40% OFF No hidden fees • Cancel anytime • Unused credits roll over 16% OFF - Save $18.8 $8.3/month $9.9/month $100/year billed yearly 480images / year $0.21 per image on Nano Banana - [Included] 2,400 Credits renew yearly - [Included] Or 120 images in 4KGPT Image 2.5 · 4K - [Included] All 26 tools, one balance - [Included] All 18 models, including the 4K tiers - [Included] Download without watermark 20% OFF - Save $70.8 Popular $24.0/month $29.9/month $288/year billed yearly 1,920images / year $0.15 per image on Nano Banana - [Included] 9,600 Credits renew yearly - [Included] Or 480 images in 4KGPT Image 2.5 · 4K - [Included] All 26 tools, one balance - [Included] All 18 models, including the 4K tiers - [Included] Download without watermark 40% OFF - Save $238.8 $30.0/month $49.9/month $360/year billed yearly 4,320images / year $0.083 per image on Nano Banana - [Included] 21,600 Credits renew yearly - [Included] Or 1,080 images in 4KGPT Image 2.5 · 4K - [Included] All 26 tools, one balance - [Included] All 18 models, including the 4K tiers - [Included] Download without watermark Swipe to compare plans → ## Text to Image: frequently asked questions ### ### Which model should I start with? The default, Z-Image Turbo: 1 credit and about four seconds, good for trying ideas. Nano Banana and FLUX.1 Kontext at 5 credits follow a detailed description more closely. Move to GPT Image 2.5 when you need readable text inside the image, or Seedream 5 Pro for the most photorealistic detail. ### ### How much does one image cost? Between 1 and 23 credits depending on the model and resolution tier. The price is shown next to the model name before you click Create. ### ### Can I generate several images at once? Yes, 1, 2 or 4 per run. They are generated in parallel and each finished image is charged separately. ### ### Can it write readable text in the picture? GPT Image 2 and 2.5 and Seedream are the strongest at signage, labels and posters. Put the exact words in quotes in the prompt. ### ### What happens if a generation fails? You are only charged when an image comes back. If the model fails or times out, nothing is deducted and you can simply run it again. ### ### Do I need an account? Yes. Sign in with Google and you get 10 free credits to try any tool. Credits are one balance shared across the whole site. ### ### Can I use the results commercially? You keep ownership of what you upload and what you generate, on every plan; see the Terms of Service. Free downloads carry a small watermark, paid plans download without one. ## Describe it, then see it Start with 10 free credits. The prompt box at the top of this page is the whole workflow.
