ImgGPT has a generous free tier and three paid plans. The right choice depends on whether you need AI generation, project storage, or both.

Free Tier — All Editing Tools, No Limits

Every editing tool on ImgGPT is free to use without creating an account. That includes remove background, compress, resize, crop, convert, rotate, watermark, collage, merge, round, border, hue and saturation, replace color, passport photo, favicon generator, image to PDF, aspect ratio converter, and batch resize.

There are no watermarks, no resolution limits, and no daily caps. You can compress a thousand images in a row if you want.

The free tier is genuinely free. No credit card required, no signup needed.

What You Need a Paid Plan For

Paid plans unlock three things: AI credits for generation, project storage with version history, and CDN hosting with permanent URLs.

AI Credits

AI image generation, Magic Eraser, AI Enhance, and AI Upscale all require credits. Different models cost different amounts — from 1 credit for Flux Schnell up to 50 credits for Recraft V4 Pro.

Project Storage

Save images to organized project folders with version history. Every edit you make is tracked, so you can go back to any previous version.

CDN Hosting

Get permanent, fast-loading URLs for your images hosted on Cloudflare's global CDN.

Plan Comparison

Starter — $9.99/month

  • 300 AI credits per month
  • 25 project folders
  • 500 MB storage

The Starter plan works well for casual creators who generate a few dozen images per month.

Pro — $14.99/month

  • 1,000 AI credits per month
  • 100 project folders
  • 2.5 GB storage

The Pro plan is the sweet spot for most users. With 1,000 credits, you have room to experiment with different models and iterate on prompts.

Business — $24.99/month

  • 2,000 AI credits per month
  • 200 project folders
  • 5 GB storage

The Business plan is for power users — agencies, e-commerce sellers, or teams generating content at scale.

Credit Costs by Model

Not all AI models cost the same:

  • Flux Schnell — 1 credit (ultra-fast, great for testing)
  • Flux Dev — 3 credits (balanced quality and speed)
  • Flux Pro — 5 credits (premium detail)
  • Flux Kontext Pro — 8 credits (identity-preserving edits)
  • Flux Kontext Max — 15 credits (maximum fidelity)
  • Seedream 3 & 4 — 6 credits each (aesthetic photography)
  • Recraft V3 — 8 credits (text rendering)
  • Recraft V4 Pro — 50 credits (premium logos and brand assets)
  • Qwen Image — 4 credits (multi-element scenes)
  • Hunyuan 3 — 20 credits (photorealism, CJK text)
  • Magic Eraser Cleanup — 4 credits
  • Magic Eraser Inpainting — 1 credit
Pro tip: Start with Flux Schnell (1 credit) to test your prompt. Once you are happy with the composition, switch to a higher-quality model for the final output.
