Pros and cons

Artgen

Pros

  • Six deterministic image effects are free with sign-in and need no credits
  • Credits never expire and roll over between months
  • Wide catalog of 51 tools covering images, editing, video and audio
  • Chrome extension and documented API alongside the web app
  • Credit cost is shown before each AI run

Cons

  • The site does not name the company or team behind it
  • Even the free effects require sign-in
  • Pixel art output is a single opaque 512 px-max PNG with no transparency or sprite sheets
  • Individual credit pack prices were not visible on the pricing page
  • Some video and audio features appear to be limited or still rolling out

Dzine

Pros

  • Layer-based editing and auto-selection give more control than prompt-only generators.
  • Access to several third-party image and video models from one workspace.
  • Reusable characters support consistent visuals across a project.
  • Free account with 100 credits lets users try the tools before paying.
  • Public pay-as-you-go API for developers.

Cons

  • Free credits are a one-time 100 and expire after 12 months; the earlier daily refresh has been removed.
  • Video generation is credit-expensive, for example 37 credits for a 5-second Kling 2.1 STD clip.
  • Trustpilot reviewers report billing after trials, credits consumed by failed or cancelled jobs, and slow support.
  • Web only; no native desktop or confirmed mobile app.
