How do image credits work?
Image credits are your allowance for AI photo edits. In the image editor, use them to stage a room, remove furniture, or turn a daytime photo into twilight.
- Generate a preview: Uses credits to create an AI edit.
- Accept a result: Uses additional credits to keep it.
- Reject a result: Adds no charge. The generation charge remains, and each new attempt uses credits.
The amount depends on your chosen model and photo size. The same action uses the same number of credits on every plan. For single-photo edits, open Model details in the editor to see the generation and acceptance amounts. Multi-angle room staging is explained below.
Which model should I choose?
Try ListingAI Precision Fast for everyday listing photos. You can switch models for your next edit. Model details compares speed, capabilities and credit use so you can decide what suits your photo.
For a single-photo edit, Precision Fast at 2K uses 2 credits to generate + 4 to accept = 6 total for an image you keep on the first try. Every additional preview uses another 2 credits.
How does multi-angle room staging use credits?
Each generation uses image credits; accepting its result adds a charge. Creating a room, uploading photos and reusing an accepted photo are free. Available with Professional, Expert or an active 30-day Professional pass.
Multi-angle staging uses more credits than single-photo editing. Larger outputs and more reference views used can increase the cost; uploading extra photos alone does not. Each extra angle means another generation. The charge for accepting a result is saved when it is generated.
Choose All remaining photos or One at a time after accepting the first look. You review each result either way. We check your balance before generating or accepting, and pause when there aren't enough credits for the next photo.
What else uses image credits?
Headshots, creating reference items and the separate single-photo batch editor have their own costs shown in those tools. That batch editor charges upfront and automatically keeps completed results; multi-angle Rooms still asks you to accept each result.
Cropping, rotating, and color adjustments are free and use no image credits.
