Buying guides

A few things worth settling before you pay. Every conclusion here rests on what an official page states.

Credit rules

Credits are each platform's own unit. What matters is how many your own work uses up.

Budget and billing cycle

A lower per-month figure is not a saving if you stop using it early.

Regions and editions

First confirm it is the same product with the same entitlements; only then ask where it costs less.

Heavy and technical use

It depends on whether you create in an interface, or generate in bulk inside your own workflow.

Data and trust

What is confirmed, what is not, and any commercial relationships, kept apart.
