Pros and cons

Leonardo AI

Pros

  • Free plan with 150 tokens per day
  • Many first-party and third-party image and video models in one account
  • Personal model training on paid plans
  • AI Canvas for inpainting and outpainting
  • Apps for iOS and Android, plus a pay-as-you-go API

Cons

  • Free generations are public and the daily allowance is small
  • Token costs vary by model and settings, so spend is hard to predict
  • Unlimited relaxed video generation needs the $60 Ultimate plan
  • Official pricing page blocks automated access, so plan details need checking on the site

Napkin AI

Pros

  • Permanent free plan with 500 weekly AI credits and unlimited PNG and PDF export.
  • Generates visuals from plain text with no prompt writing.
  • Every generated element stays editable, and editing is unlimited on all plans.
  • Imports PPT, DOC, PDF, HTML and Markdown files.
  • Paid plans start at $9 per user per month, with a 25% listed discount for annual billing.

Cons

  • Free-plan visuals carry Napkin branding, which limits client-facing use; branding is removed only on Plus and Pro.
  • PPT and SVG export are paid-only.
  • Visual generation is not yet available on mobile, and no official iOS or Android app was found.
  • Credits are consumed per word selected, so long texts use the free weekly allowance quickly.
