Leonardo AI

Leonardo AI is a creator-focused generative platform that bundles image generation, video generation, an image editor, and an upscaler into one subscription. Rather than relying on a single model, it hosts multiple options including its own Lucid Origin and Lucid Realism models alongside third-party models such as Seedream 4.5, Nano Banana Pro, GPT 1.5, and Flux.2 Pro, letting users pick a model suited to a particular style or task. A canvas-based editor supports inpainting to modify specific regions of an image, outpainting to extend the canvas, and image-to-image generation that uses an existing image as a starting point, so users can composite and layer multiple generations into a single scene. A core differentiator is custom model fine-tuning: users can upload their own image sets to train a model that reproduces a specific visual style, which is useful for teams that need consistent output matching a brand, game, or design language. Leonardo targets artists, designers, developers, and teams needing volume and stylistic consistency rather than one-off images. Pricing runs from a free tier (150 fast generation tokens per day) through Essential, Premium, and Ultimate solo plans, plus team plans starting at 3 seats. Leonardo was acquired by Canva in 2024, and its Essential tier is now bundled with Canva Business subscriptions.
