Best for
General concept art and icon ideas
Text/image-to-3D with retopology on paid plans
What it does
General image and video generation platform with trainable custom models; usable for concept art, item icons and texture ideas.
Text/image/multi-view to 3D model generation with retopology, segmentation and up to 4K/8K texture generation. DCC bridge lists Blender, Unity, Unreal, Godot and others.
Verdict
For general concept art and icon ideas; free-tier output can be used commercially but is public and Leonardo holds rights to it, while paid plans give you ownership.
For 3D models with retopology and engine bridges; the free plan is non-commercial, so shipping assets requires a paid plan.
