Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
DeepAI
Images, chat, video and music on one prepaid wallet
DeepAI puts image generation, chat, short video and music generation behind a single subscription with a monthly allowance for each, and tops up from a prepaid balance when the allowance runs out. Nothing has to be bought per tool. The allowances reset monthly whether you pay by month or by year. Anybody who needs one model in particular will find a dedicated tool sharper than this one is at any of them.
Our note
Read the video allowance before buying on the strength of the image numbers, because 25 seconds a month is the line most people hit first and it is easy to miss beside 500 images. For image work alone the allowance is large enough that the wallet rarely comes into it.

Recraft
Image and vector generation with style control
Recraft generates raster and vector art, and the reason to pick it over a general image model is that a style can be defined once and reused, so a set of icons or covers comes out looking related. Output on the free plan is public and owned by Recraft. Paid plans move generations to private and hand over commercial rights.
