AI Image Costs

What one usable AI image costs, from each vendor's own price page.

Ideogram pricing: plans, credits and cost per image

Quick answer

Ideogram Plus is $20 a month ($15 billed yearly), Pro is $60 ($42) and Team is $30 per user ($20). Plus includes 2,400 priority credits a month and Pro 7,500. Pay as you go is 1 cent per credit. An Ideogram 4.5 image at Medium uses 6 credits, so it costs $0.06 on pay as you go, or about $0.05 on Plus monthly if every credit is used. The API lists Ideogram 4.5 at $0.03 to $0.10 per 1K image.

Cost per image, worked out (4.5 Medium, every priority credit used)

How it's worked out: plan price / priority credits = price per credit, then x credits per image. Because subscription credits expire each cycle, the real figure is higher if you don't use them all.
