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

Gemini Notebook

Pros

  • Answers cite the uploaded sources, so claims can be checked against the original text
  • Free Standard tier with 100 notebooks and 50 sources per notebook
  • Wide range of outputs, including Audio Overviews, Video Overviews, mind maps, flashcards, quizzes and slide decks
  • Accepts PDFs, websites, YouTube videos, audio files, Google Docs and Google Slides
  • Available on web, iOS and Android, and synced with the Gemini app

Cons

  • Works from the sources you add and is not built for live web news search
  • Higher limits require a Google AI subscription; Ultra starts at $99.99 per month
  • The cloud computer for code execution started with Ultra and Workspace AI Ultra Access customers, with Pro rollout still described as upcoming
  • No public API for the consumer product, and the renamed brand can make older guides and app listings confusing
