| Tool | Category | Best for | Pricing note |

Essential $12/month, Premium $30/month, Ultimate $60/month (private generations, more tokens, higher concurrency). Team plans from $24/seat/month; API pay-as-you-go from $5 credit. |
| Ideogram | Image | Creators and designers who need readable text baked into generated images — thumbnails, logos, titles, and social graphics. | Free plan with daily credits available.
