Pricing

Pay for what you use.

No subscription. Sign up for 25 free credits, buy a pack when you want more, and buy the next one whenever it suits you. The more you buy at once, the less each credit costs. Credits are pooled across a team and a call that returns nothing costs nothing.

What a credit buys

2 CR

Standard edit

2 credits for an area up to 1K, 3 above. The size follows the area you select.

1 CR

Draft edit

1 credit for any area. Faster and cheaper, and the default for trying a prompt before the real run.

BY SIZE

Enhance and upscale

Enhance is about 2 credits per two megapixels of output, Upscale per eight. The app asks before it spends.

Questions

Is there a subscription?

No. You buy a pack when you want credits and spend it at your own pace. Nothing renews and there is no bill you did not agree to.

Do credits expire?

Yes, a year after they arrive, the free ones included. The credits closest to expiring are spent first, and the billing page shows when each batch runs out.

What happens when I run out?

Editing stops until you buy another pack. The credits land the moment the payment clears.

What does the first pack change?

Until then you are on the free tier: exports carry a small watermark, and a workspace holds 2 GB of pictures. The first pack lifts the watermark, unlocks the layered PSD export and raises the ceiling to 100 GB.

Who can see a project?

Everyone in the workspace it was made in. A personal workspace is just you; a team is whoever you invite.

What is sent to the model?

The area you selected plus a margin of context, any reference areas you marked, and your prompt. Never the whole picture unless you select the whole picture.

Which AI?

Tessera picks the model behind each tier and moves to better ones as they arrive, at the same price. No client ever depends on a particular one.

Can I delete my pictures?

Yes. A deleted project can be brought back for fourteen days, then it and every picture in it are purged. A project in a workspace that has never bought credits is purged after thirty days without a change.
