Image generation with your own trained models
Leonardo generates images from a prompt and, unlike most of the tools that do, lets you train a model on your own pictures and keep using it. That is what people stay for: a character or a product that looks the same across fifty images rather than approximately the same. The canvas and the real-time editor sit alongside it, and there is an API if the work belongs in something you built.
Our note
Leonardo is the pick when consistency matters more than the single best-looking render, because training a model on your own images is the feature its rivals mostly do not have. For one-off images, NightCafe costs the same and gives you more models to try.

Product photos with the background removed
Photoroom cuts a subject out of a photo and drops it onto something better, which is most of what selling a physical product on Instagram or Etsy requires. Batch mode does a whole catalogue at once. It is built around commerce imagery rather than general editing, so a portrait retoucher will find it narrow.
