Frequently asked

Choosing ai image & design

Can AI-generated images be used commercially?+

Terms vary by provider, plan, region, and input rights. Review the provider's current license and do not assume an output is exclusive or free of third-party rights.

When is an AI design suite better than an image generator?+

A design suite is better when layout, brand templates, collaboration, exports, and repeatable production matter more than generating a single high-fidelity image.
