I've evaluated a lot of these over the years. What stands out here is real-time generation mode — handled better than most — and strong tools for game and concept art workflows. Token system can feel limiting on the free plan is my one real gripe. Worth the time if this is your use case.

Use it every day

Honestly didn't expect to like it this much. Image upscaling and editing tools is exactly what I needed, and real-time canvas and inpainting features. but I reach for it almost every day now and it just clicks.
