Pricing and free tier
Leonardo offers a free tier granting 150 fast tokens daily for public generations. Paid plans include Essential ($12/month or $10/year billed annually), Premium ($30/month or $24/year), and Ultimate ($60/month or $48/year), unlocking private generation and larger token banks.
Check the official Leonardo pricing page for current concurrency limits and API credit allowances.
Limitations to check
Free-tier generations are publicly viewable by the community and cannot be made private without an active paid subscription. High-resolution upscaling and model training consume fast tokens quickly.
