Pros and cons

Canva

Pros

  • Free plan includes the full editor, 1.6M+ templates and 5GB of storage
  • Large library of templates and stock assets covering social, presentation, document and video formats
  • AI tools for generation, background removal, resizing and translation sit inside the same editor
  • Brand Kits and approval workflows on Business and Enterprise help teams keep designs consistent
  • Apps on web, macOS, Windows, iOS and Android, plus a public API

Cons

  • AI usage is capped on every plan, with Free limited to about 20 uses per month
  • Pro covers one person only, so teams need Business at $25 per person per month
  • Monthly billing costs more than annual billing ($18 versus $12 for Pro)
  • Less suited to detailed vector illustration or print-production work than dedicated design software

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.
