## Ideogram

- `compute/ideogram` | paid-only | evidence inferred | binding volume-quota | category inference API
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-10-22 (live) | stale on 2026-11-22
- url https://ideogram.ai/pricing/
- free tier: No free plan is listed. The published plans on 2026-10-22 begin at Plus ('USD 15 per month, USD 180 billed annually, 2,400 priority credits a month'), then Pro at USD 60 for 7,500 priority credits, Team at USD 30 a user, and enterprise tiers per credit. 'Unlimited slow credits' appears only as a Pro feature line. A capture of the same page on 2026-09-21 recorded the free weekly allowance as de-published, and a January 2025 capture recorded the free tier tightened from 10 slow images a day to '10 credits per week'. | unit: unlimited | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: none-published
- per-object cap: not applicable | source: [1]
- retention: not applicable | source: [1]
- egress: not stated | metered: no | source: [1]
- identity: email | detail: an account, with no card or hold stated: the published plans are all paid and no free row appears. If any free allowance remains, a Korean-language report dated 2026-10-18 claims free accounts get 30 credits a week signing in with Google, Apple or Microsoft and that email signups are excluded, reported and not confirmed. So whether an email-only account reaches any free capacity is unknown, and which identifier the paid signup requires is not stated
- interface: unknown
- limits:
  - volume-quota (binding): the free lane is not on the price list: the cheapest published entry is USD 15 a month, so a person with an email address and no card has nothing to generate with, and the only reports of a remaining free allowance are 10 to 30 credits a week, which is a handful of images. [1]
- limits note: the free lane is not on the price list: the cheapest published entry is USD 15 a month, so a person with an email address and no card has nothing to generate with, and the only reports of a remaining free allowance are 10 to 30 credits a week, which is a handful of images.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
- tooling: not stated
- composes with: nothing to chain at the free tier. The paid entry is USD 15 for 2,400 credits, which at one credit an image is a cheap image lane, but it is a subscription rather than a credit grant.
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: These are inference credits, not general compute. The inference is that the free lane closed, because the vendor's price list no longer carries a free row and because a September 2026 capture recorded the allowance as de-published while an October 2026 third-party report claims a 30-credit weekly allowance for social logins only. Not done.
