Keep Vizcom, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Vizcom you would be making an image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 106 of the 168 other AI image and video generators grade higher. It costs $588 a year.

What you could not

  • An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
  • A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
  • A real app for macOS and Windows. Something home-made would be a web page.
  • Several people working in it at the same moment.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.

What this rests on. Vizcom’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is Vizcom?

Vizcom is an AI design platform for product and industrial designers. You sketch or upload a drawing, describe materials and colors, and it produces rendered images that can be edited, animated, turned into 3D models and upscaled. Plans are measured in monthly credits, with a free starter tier.

Worth knowing

  • The free Starter plan allows 10 files and about 200 images a month.
  • Free users' generated images may be used by Vizcom to improve its services; paid plans are not used for training.
  • Every action draws on one credit balance; extra credits are add-ons and unused add-on credits roll over.
