Leonardo.Ai
The creator-first generative AI platform
Leonardo.Ai is a generative AI platform for images and video, created from prompts or custom models. A free plan gives 150 fast tokens per day, and paid plans start at $12 per month, billed monthly. It covers generating images, creating videos and animations, editing photos and videos, and upscaling images, with a developer API on pay-as-you-go pricing.

What Leonardo.Ai does
Start with a prompt or a custom model and Leonardo.Ai generates visuals from it. Static images can then be turned into video with its animation and motion tools. When you need changes, its editing keeps characters, composition and style intact across images and video, and resolution upscaling sharpens the result. Realtime Canvas and Realtime Generation, Leo Agent, Blueprints, Flow State and Elements round out the workspace.
The Free plan includes 150 fast tokens per day, Auto-only model access and public creations. Paid individual plans open access to 80+ models, including third-party ones, keep generations private and let you train personal AI models. Essential costs $12, Premium $30 and Ultimate $60 per month, each billed monthly, with 8,500, 25,000 and 60,000 fast tokens per month respectively. Premium and Ultimate add unlimited relaxed generation on selected models.
Teams have Starter and Growth plans, listed at $72 and $144 per month on its pricing page ($24 and $48 per seat), plus a custom plan. Developers can use the API on a pay-as-you-go basis, with credit that doesn't expire and up to 10 concurrent generations, or arrange an API Custom tier.
