Q: How come Dalle-3 images cost so many credits?
Hey, I have just purchased tier 2 of your plan, which I am pretty happy with after testing the models out on your website. But I did wonder, while I tested various models, how come dalle-3 image generations cost so much? The other models are anywhere from a standard 1 to 4 credits but dalle-3 seems to start at 19 credits. Just wondered why this is? Thank you for your time.

Feb 17, 2025A: Hi,
The DALL-E AI engine uses more credits, as it is not self-hosted by us and is provided through an external provider.
Apart from the DALL-E AI engine, most of the other AI engines, such as Stable Diffusion, 3D Animation Diffusion, Anything V6, Wifu Diffusion, and Analog Diffusion, use one credit per standard-size image (512px x 512px), as they are self-hosted by us.
Cheers,
Neil
