Common questions
Firefly is built into Photoshop — why would I switch?
Adobe integration is a real strength if your workflow lives in Creative Cloud, and Firefly now offers partner models too. The difference is access and pricing: on VapuAI every one of the 20+ models is included on every plan with no per-model credit metering or tier-gating, you're not tied to a Creative Cloud subscription, commercial rights come on every plan, and failed generations are automatically refunded.
Is this comparison biased?
We keep it factual and non-disparaging. Both tools are strong — this page is here to help you match one to how you actually work, not to talk anyone down.
Can I try VapuAI before switching?
Yes. Open Image Studio and generate with full access to all 20+ models on your plan, so you can compare the output for your own briefs before you commit.
Do I keep commercial rights to what I generate?
Commercial usage rights are included on every VapuAI plan, so client and commercial deliverables are cleared for use out of the box.
How does VapuAI pricing work?
VapuAI uses credits with 90-day validity and locked pricing for subscribers. A generation costs 1–8 credits depending on the model and settings, and failed generations are automatically refunded. See the pricing page for current rates.
What happens if a generation fails?
It is automatically refunded to your balance — a misfire on any model never costs you credits.
