Example — generated from this input

A friendly round robot gardener tending glowing blue flowers inside a glass greenhouse dome on Mars at night, under a deep sky full of stars with two small moons, cool silver moonlight on the red dunes beyond the glass, the flowers glowing brighter in the dark, cinematic digital art.

Pricing

Unit price $0.03 / megapixel

Billed by the actual pixels of each image; larger sizes and more images cost more. 1024×1024 is about 1 megapixel.

Typically about $0.03 per image at default settings.

Each request temporarily reserves $0.03; you are charged for actual usage, usually within a minute: any unused amount is released and any usage above it is charged to your balance, even if that takes it below zero; while your balance is below zero, new requests are paused until a top-up covers it.

Failed generations are not charged.
