OpenArt AI Review: Confirmed Pricing, Thin Free Tier
OpenArt's pricing is confirmed directly from its own site, from $14/mo for 4,000 credits. The free tier is a one-time 40 credits, not a recurring allowance.
OpenArt aggregates image, video and audio models behind a single subscription, with a broader model catalog than most competitors we have looked at: Seedance 2.5, Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0, Sora 2, Wan 2.7, LTX 2.3, PixVerse V6, Hailuo 2.3 and more, per the platform's own pricing page.
What it costs
Unlike some platforms in this category, OpenArt's pricing page rendered cleanly and the numbers below are confirmed directly from openart.ai, not a comparison site's summary:
| Plan | Price/mo | Credits/mo | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $14 | 4,000 | ~50 videos, watermark-free, ~13 consistent characters |
| Plus | $34 | 12,000 | ~150 videos, commercial use rights |
| Pro | $56 | 24,000 | ~300 videos, priority support |
| Wonder | $240 | 106,000 | ~1,300 videos, unlimited creation |
The site also advertises a discounted per-seat rate next to each price (for example, Plus at $27/seat against a $34 sticker price). We could not confirm from the pricing page alone whether that discount requires annual billing or applies only at higher seat counts, so budget for the sticker price above until you have confirmed the discount terms directly at checkout.
Free tier: thinner than most
40 credits, one time, expiring after 7 days. That is not a recurring monthly allowance like Higgsfield's daily reset; it is a single trial window. Plan to hit the wall fast if you are evaluating this seriously rather than just poking at it once.
What we found when we looked past the pricing page
Trustpilot reviews raise a specific, recurring complaint: unused credits, including paid add-on credits, do not roll over and are wiped at renewal. One reviewer described losing over 16,000 credits across two months. A second theme is a confusing, multi-step cancellation flow, and unclear disclosure that purchasing extra credits creates its own separate recurring charge on top of the base subscription. Some other reviewers praised responsive support, so this is not a uniform picture, but the credit-expiry complaint shows up often enough that we would budget conservatively and use credits inside the month you pay for them rather than banking them.
What we have not tested ourselves
Same caveat as every platform review on this site: we have not run our own 40-prompt battery through OpenArt's own pipeline. The model scores you will find elsewhere on sloptv.co (Kling, Sora, Grok) were generated through Magnific, not through OpenArt, and platform-specific API access can affect output even for the same underlying model.
Should you use it
The model catalog here is genuinely wide and the entry price is reasonable, but the free tier gives you almost nothing to evaluate with, and the credit-expiry complaints are specific enough to take seriously if you tend to pay for a plan and use it unevenly month to month. If breadth of model choice is what you are optimising for and you plan to actually use your credits each cycle, it is a reasonable pick.
For a platform with a more generous, recurring free tier, see our Higgsfield review; for the full field, see our platform comparison.
