Quick Verdict
The widest feature set in AI art at a low entry price - but the credit system will frustrate you, and video generation eats credits fast.
Visit OpenArt →Overview
OpenArt is an AI image and video generation platform built around a suite of creative tools: text-to-image, image-to-video, consistent character creation, custom model training, inpainting, background removal, upscaling, and over 100 premium models from Stable Diffusion variants to Flux. It is aimed at hobbyist artists, content creators, and social media producers who want an all-in-one creative workspace rather than a single-model generator. The platform recently expanded into video and audio generation, story creation, and a ComfyUI-powered workflow community, making it one of the more complete creative suites in the AI art space.
The platform's strongest selling point is breadth: most image editing and generation tasks can be done inside one account without stitching together separate tools. Custom model training (LoRA fine-tuning) is available from the $7/month Essential plan, which is the lowest entry point for LoRA training among comparable platforms. OpenArt also hosts a large public workflow library for ComfyUI users who want advanced pipelines without building from scratch.
The credit system is the platform's most cited frustration. Credits don't roll over, video generation is expensive (users report a 3-minute music video burning 6,000+ credits), and the free tier offers only 40 one-time trial credits - barely enough to evaluate the tool. Trustpilot reviews (329 reviews, 3.0/5) consistently flag credit drain, confusing subscription upgrade flows, and occasional broken model outputs. Customer support is consistently praised as responsive, but multiple Trustpilot reviewers describe the credit structure as feeling designed to push upsells.

Pros
- All-in-one creative suite: text-to-image, image-to-video, upscaling, inpainting, background removal, and character generation all inside one account
- Custom LoRA model training available from the $7/month Essential plan - one of the lowest entry points for LoRA training in the AI art category
- Large public ComfyUI workflow library with thousands of community-built pipelines for advanced users who want fine-grained control
- Consistent character creation system lets you generate the same character across multiple scenes from a single reference image or description
- Access to 100+ premium models including Stable Diffusion XL, Flux, and specialized anime and photorealistic models across all paid plans
- Responsive customer support that issues credit refunds for platform errors, which is notable given the volume of credit complaints
Cons
- Free tier provides only 40 one-time trial credits - not renewable daily or monthly - which is insufficient for meaningful testing of the platform
- Credit economy is aggressive: video generation and multi-step editing tasks drain credits fast, and credits expire at renewal with no rollover
- Subscription upgrade flow has generated multiple billing complaints on Trustpilot (329 reviews, 3.0/5), including accidental annual plan charges and difficult refund processes
- Video and audio generation quality is inconsistent - user reviews cite broken renders, wrong on-screen text in music videos, and unusable outputs that still consume credits
