01Rules
How we compare
We’re part of the comparison, so the rules are simple and verifiable.
Only the provider’s public pages
A figure appears on our page only if it’s written on the provider’s own page. Next to it are a link and the date it was checked.
Not checked? We say so
If a page doesn’t name a price, a payment method, or a limit, the cell says “not checked” or “not on their pages” instead of a guess.
Price per image and rate per token
Where a provider charges per token, we show its rate and don’t invent a price per image.
We’re part of the comparison
Every page has a “When to pick them instead” block. How we check and correct mistakes is on the “About the editors” page.

02FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Where do other providers’ figures come from?
Only from their public pages: model pages, price lists, and documentation. Every figure has a link to the page and a check date (October 26, 2026). If a page has no figure, we write “not checked” or “not on their pages.”
Why do some providers have no price per image?
Some providers charge per token rather than per image: the total depends on size, quality, and the number of references. In such cells we show the provider’s rate and don’t invent a price per image.
Do you compare image quality?
No. We compare prices and terms from public pages. Quality depends on the prompts and the model, so it’s best to check it on your own tasks.
How often do you update the pages?
Every page shows its check date. Providers’ prices change, so before you decide, open the provider’s page through the link next to the figure.
