| Pricing | $20/month (Pro) · free tier: Hobby — free, no credit card required, limited Agent requests (quota not published), access to Composer | Not published (pricing page rendered plan cards with "/ month" and no numerals in the retrieved source) · free tier: Free plan includes image generation described by the vendor as "limited and slower"; image generation with Thinking is not available |
| Pricing model | Subscription with usage-based on-demand overage | Subscription (per user per month; annual plans for Business and Enterprise) |
| Best for | Professional developers and agent-heavy engineers in large existing repositories who will realistically buy Pro+ ($60) or Ultra ($200), plus teams and regulated enterprises needing SSO, SCIM, audit logs and access controls. | Marketers, founders, consultants and generalists already paying for ChatGPT who want competent image generation as part of one general AI workspace, with heavy image users on Pro. |
| Avoid if | You need a hard, predictable monthly bill, plan to hammer the most expensive frontier models on the $20 Pro tier, rely on a dependable refund path, or are an India Start-plan buyer who needs third-party frontier models. | You need a contractual numeric image quota for budgeting, are judging quality on the Free tier, are buying Go specifically for image work, or require verified independent satisfaction and compliance data before committing. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
