Common questions
Canva does design too, so why use VapuAI?
Canva's design suite and templates are a real strength if layout is your main job. VapuAI is a dedicated image studio instead: 20+ models in one workspace so you can pick the right one per shot, compare outputs, then edit and enhance, with commercial rights on every plan and failed generations auto-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, so a misfire on any model never costs you credits.
