- *Real-time canvas with AI drawing assist — paint rough shapes and watch the model fill in details live
- *Custom model training on your own images — upload 10-20 reference photos and train a model on them in under 30 minutes
- *Prompt generation mode writes detailed prompts from a simple concept description
- *3D texture generation for game asset workflows — applies AI-generated textures to uploaded 3D models
Pricing
Free: 150 tokens per day (roughly 15 standard images at 10 tokens each)
Apprentice$10/month
Artisan$24/month
Maestro$48/month
Strengths
- +The model variety is genuinely useful — you can switch from photorealistic (Kino XL) to concept art (Phoenix) to anime within the same project without leaving the platform
- +Custom model training at $24/month is a significant value — comparable tools charge far more or require technical setup to do the same locally
- +The Real-time Canvas is the closest thing to Photoshop's generative fill inside a dedicated image generation tool
Limitations
- -The token system is confusing — different models cost different amounts, higher resolution costs more, and the math isn't obvious until you've burned through a day's allocation unexpectedly
- -Motion output quality is behind Runway and Kling for video — it's useful for simple loops but falls apart with complex movement
- -The UI has a lot of panels and options that make it feel cluttered compared to Midjourney's simpler prompt-and-go approach
