Pros and cons

EzImageAI

Pros

  • Has a no-account guest trial and a one-time 10-credit allowance for new accounts.
  • Includes a Photo to Coloring Page tool with A4 and US Letter printing, plus docs, a blog and a changelog.

Cons

  • No company or operator name is published; the terms say only that it is run by an individual.
  • Free use is tiny: two watermarked guest edits per day, or 10 one-time credits for two images, limited to Nano Banana 2 Lite 1K.
  • Sensitive-content rejections by the provider are charged the full quoted credits, including the first.
  • Web only, with no API or mobile app, and the video feature is still a beta.

  • Free plan with 125 credits that do not expire

  • Standard and Pro credits do not roll over at the end of the month
  • Some App Store reviewers complain about the cost of failed or unusable generations
  • 4K upscaling is unlimited only on Pro and Max
