Pros and cons
Leonardo.Ai
- Custom model training included in paid tiers (up to 50 models/month on Ultimate).
- Relaxed generation allows unlimited image/video generation on select models after tokens run out.
- Team plans share tokens and include team management and private generations.
- Token limits and rollover caps (e.g. 180,000 max bank) may constrain heavy users.
- Free tier creations are public and cannot be private.
- Pay-as-you-go API pricing and limits are not clearly detailed on the pricing page.
OpenMaker
- One-time credit bundles (no recurring subscription) suit sporadic or project-based generation workflows without monthly commitment.
- Unusually broad tool set in one browser tab: text-to-image across multiple named models (Seedream 5.0, Recraft, Nano Banana Pro), text-to-video, image-to-video, 4K video, background removal, and upscaling.
- Node-based AI Canvas workspace connects prompts, reference images, and outputs in one view, a structural feature absent from most entry-level AI image tools.
- The free tier is explicitly limited to low-quality AI generations, which means you cannot meaningfully evaluate output quality before purchasing a credit bundle.
- Credit bundles expire after 100 days on all paid plans, so infrequent users who buy the Super bundle ($199.99 for 112,000 credits) risk losing unused credits if they do not generate at pace.
- No subscription option exists: there is no monthly plan with rolling credits, which makes cost unpredictable for teams with consistent but variable monthly generation needs.
Our verdict
Leonardo.Ai verdict
Best for creators who want detailed control over image and video generation and flexible token plans. It offers custom model training, relaxed generation, and team pooling, but token limits and rollover caps may frustrate heavy users. If you need unlimited, flat-rate generation, consider Midjourney instead.

OpenMaker suits casual creators and small e-commerce teams who want a single browser tab for image generation, background removal, and short video clips without installing anything. Its one-time credit bundles are an unusual pricing model that works well for sporadic users but gets expensive fast for anyone generating at volume, and the free tier's low-quality output limits real evaluation before you pay. Teams needing consistent style control or high-volume generation will find Leonardo.Ai's subscription model and style presets a better fit.
