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.Try the free plan on one idea first. If you'll use it most months, Pro is cheap on the yearly plan. Business only makes sense if you need your own brand kit across a team.Standard is the sweet spot: three dollars more than Basic gets you more than three times the photos. Move to Professional or Enterprise only if you stage several listings a week. The vendor says yearly billing saves more, so check both options at checkout.
