Flexible AI image generation with fine control over style and consistency.
- Pricing
- Free daily credits, paid from around $12/mo

The best free-to-start image generator for sellers - reach for it when a Midjourney subscription is hard to justify.
Pros
- Daily free credits make it genuinely testable
- Strong style control and reusable trained models
- Good for print art, KDP covers, and product graphics
Cons
- More of a learning curve than Midjourney
- Free credits run out fast on a productive day
Leonardo AI sits between Midjourney's polish and a hobbyist tool's price. The daily free credits mean you can test it on real work before paying, and the style controls reward sellers who need a consistent look across a product line.
