Token-efficient; free tiers go a long way. Last reviewed April 2026; plans and model names change often, so check the tool's own pricing page before you buy.
Leonardo's fine-tuned models (AlbedoBase, DreamShaper, RPG 4.0) produce specialized outputs — use game-specific models for assets, not the default.
Free tier: 150 tokens/day (≈30 images) — enough for daily creative exploration without paying.
Use Image Guidance (style transfer) to apply a reference image's visual style to your new generation — stronger than Stable Diffusion's img2img.
Elements (LoRAs) let you add specific styles, objects, or characters to any model — stack 2–3 elements for highly controlled outputs.
PhotoReal v2 is Leonardo's best photorealistic model — surpasses Midjourney on product photography and architectural visualization.
Use the Canvas editor to combine multiple generated images into a single composition — extend scenes, add elements, or fix specific regions.
Motion (video generation) is integrated — select any image and generate 4s of motion directly within Leonardo.

Use SDXL (Stable Diffusion XL) as your base model — it produces significantly better detail and composition than SD 1.5 at the same generation speed.
