Pricing
One credit, one dollar
Dark Studio is pay as you go. You buy credits when you need them and spend them on two things: training a person once, and generating photos of them afterwards. There is no subscription and no monthly minimum.
Train from $1.00
Photos from $0.10
Credits never expire
Training: once per person
The tier you pick decides how much detail the model learns, how long training takes, and what every later photo of that person costs. It is chosen per person, so a quick social-media model and a print-quality one can live side by side.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | 512 × 512 | $1.00 | around 30 minutes | $0.10 | around 30 seconds per photo |

Generating: per photo
Every generation is a template, a photo count, and a price you see before you send. You can ask for between 1 and 32 photos at a time.
A worked example
A trained person and a 16-photo shoot
Training at Standard (1024 × 1024)
$2.00
16 photos × $0.20
$3.20
Total
$5.20
Every later shoot of the same person costs $0.20 a photo — the training is not repeated.

What happens to your money
Failed jobs return their credits to your balance automatically. Results you simply do not like are not refundable, because every generation uses real GPU time whatever comes out of it. Consumers in the EU keep the statutory right to their money back on unspent credits for 14 days.
Train your first person for $1
Start at the Basic tier to see what a model of your own face looks like, then train again at a higher tier when you know it is worth it.
