Which one is for you

Pick LlamaGen if

  • Fits if you want to draft comic pages or storyboards from a story idea
  • Works for creators who'll pay for character consistency

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you need characters that stay the same, as that starts at Pro, $24 on yearly billing
  • Watch out: refunds are generally not given, since generation costs are incurred at once
  • Tight on credits: a panel costs about 100 to 150, so Starter's 7,500 credits goes in a few dozen panels
  • Watch out: credit packs and a $50 Pro pass are sold apart from the plans

Pick Neolemon if

  • Fits if you are making a children's picture book and need the same character on every page
  • Works for authors who publish through Amazon KDP

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you work on one book, as it is $29 a month with no yearly plan
  • Watch out: credits do not roll over, and extra credits are for active subscribers only
  • Tight if you stay free, as 20 credits go quickly and commercial rights are for the paid plan
  • Too light for anything beyond illustrated books and character avatars

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
