Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
A family of image generation models with a reputation for prompt accuracy and for handling text inside images better than most, available through an API and as open weights.
Who it is for
Developers and designers who need images that match the brief closely, especially with words in them.
Where it is strongest
Images where the prompt has to be followed precisely, and anything containing readable text — the area where most generators still fail visibly.
Where it falls short
No interface of its own; you reach it through other platforms, each with its own pricing. The open weights have licence conditions that matter commercially. And it still fails on hands, crowds and anything with many interacting elements.
Our verdict
Recommended on output quality, particularly for text in images. Read the licence before anything commercial — the open version is not unconditionally free to use.
