AI image generator for detailed, artistic visuals from text prompts
View detailsKrea is an AI image and video generation platform built around a real-time canvas. Instead of typing a prompt and waiting, you draw, upload a reference, or adjust a slider and watch the image update live. It is designed for designers and creators who think visually: you can train a style on your own images, upscale and enhance photos, and generate video from a still, all in the same workspace.
Key Features
- Real-time canvas that updates as you work
- Train a custom style on your own images
- Image generation, upscaling, and enhancement
- Video generation from still images
- Commercial licence from the Basic plan
- Fast, visual workflow for designers

How it works
The platform's standout feature is its speed. The live canvas responds as you work, which makes Krea feel more like a design tool than a prompt box. It includes models for image generation, upscaling, and video, plus the ability to train a custom style so your outputs stay consistent. For product mockups, social graphics, and concept art, that consistency matters more than raw generation power.
Krea's free plan gives you 100 units a day, which is enough to learn the tool. The Basic plan costs $9 per month on monthly billing, or about $5.25 per month on annual billing, with 5,000 units. Pro at $35 per month on monthly billing, or $21 annual, is the usual choice for working designers, with 20,000 units. Commercial use is included from the Basic plan upwards.
