Which plan to pickUse Free for social posts and quick checks. If you need the cleaned photo for print, a listing or a website hero, Pro is cheap enough to pay for a month when you need it.An individual should take Professional: the free redo is worth the extra $10 over Basic. Companies should use the Team plan, where credits never expire and the per-person price drops as you buy more.Pro covers most sellers who design regularly and need print-quality exports. Only move to Expert or Max if you generate lots of AI product images or video every week. Monthly billing costs roughly a third more than yearly.
