What is Leonardo AI

Leonardo AI is a creative platform for image, video, design, motion, upscaling, and custom-model workflows. It combines first-party models, selected third-party models, token-metered subscriptions, team workspaces, and a separate pay-as-you-go API.

Core offerings

  • Image and video generation, Realtime Canvas, Blueprints, Flow State, and enhancement tools.
  • First-party models including Lucid Origin and Phoenix, plus integrated third-party models.
  • Personal model training, private generations, token rollover, and relaxed generation on eligible models.
  • Shared-token team plans and a separately funded production API.

Pricing

As of July 20, 2026, Leonardo’s solo plans are Free at US$0 with 150 fast tokens per day and public creations; Essential at US$12 per month with 8,500 monthly fast tokens, private creations, a 25,500-token bank, two concurrent generations, and up to 10 personal models; Premium at US$30 with 25,000 fast tokens, a 75,000-token bank, three concurrent generations, 20 personal models, and unlimited relaxed image generation on selected models; and Ultimate at US$60 with 60,000 fast tokens, a 180,000-token bank, six concurrent generations, 50 personal models, and eligible relaxed image and video generation.

Custom team pricing is contact-sales only. API access is pay-as-you-go with US$5 starting credit, no commitment, automatic top-ups, up to ten concurrent generations, and non-expiring API credit; higher-volume API contracts are custom priced.

Model footprint

Leonardo is a multi-model creative suite rather than a single-model product. Token cost varies with the compute intensity of each action, and unlimited relaxed generation applies only to eligible first-party or selected models, not every third-party model.

Why select Leonardo AI

Leonardo is worth shortlisting when a creator or team wants image, video, editing, training, and API routes in one platform with visible token allowances and rollover capacity.
