Multi-model creative suite with its own image model and a live canvas

Krea

AI creative suite for images, video and 3D in one web app. Its own Krea 3 image model, Realtime (renders as you type or draw) and LoRA training on your own art style suit game concept art; it also runs third-party image, video and 3D models such as Nano Banana, Seedance, Kling, Veo and Hunyuan3D.

Is it right for you?

Best forFast concept iteration in your own art style

Pre-production concept art: characters, environments and prop variations in a consistent game style.

For artists who want fast concept iteration: Krea's own image model, live drawing-to-image and a style model trained on your own art, with other image models in the same app. Commercial use needs a paid plan, and the terms word it more loosely than the pricing page.

How it works

What's different: Draw-and-see Realtime generation and training a model on your own art style in one app, with many image models side by side. Midjourney is for mood and style exploration; ChatGPT is for precise edits to existing images.

Where you use it
Web app (also an iOS app), plugins for Photoshop, Illustrator and Blender, an API and an MCP server
You give it
A text prompt, reference images, a rough drawing in Realtime, or your own images to train a style
You get
Images, upscales; also video and textured 3D models (GLB, OBJ, FBX) from third-party models
How you steer it
Choice of model (Krea 3 and others), trained LoRA styles, moodboards and node workflows
How you refine results
Realtime renders update as you draw; edit images with words; chain steps in Nodes

Using it in a commercial game

Paid plans only Yes, but only on a paid plan: Krea's published terms limit commercial use to paid plans.

What the terms say: Krea's pricing FAQ says Basic, Pro, Max, Business and Enterprise plans include a commercial licence to use generated content for commercial purposes 'without restrictions'. Its Terms of Use (last updated 20 May 2024) are softer: Krea 'may allow you to commercialize certain Content' subject to your tier, and 'reserves the right to modify the terms of commercial use' at any time. Free-plan commercial use isn't stated clearly. Read the vendor's terms ↗ · Revenue caps: Not stated by vendor · Checked · Compare every tool's terms
