Pricing, explained
One credit, one finished photo. That's the whole model.
FoodPhoto.ai prices by the photo, not by the seat or the shoot. Each credit buys one fully enhanced photo including every export format for it — delivery-app crops, social formats, print resolution. No watermarks, no per-format charges, no feature tiers.

What "everything included" means
Pricing tiers change how many photos you get and how fast — never what you get. Every plan, including the $2.99 Try Pack, includes the full feature set for each photo:
AI relighting & color
Professional lighting, shadow shaping, and color correction on every photo.
Background cleanup
Clutter removal, background replacement, and all the style presets.
Every export format
Delivery-platform crops, social media formats, and HD output for web and print — no watermarks.
How this compares to a traditional shoot
A professional food photography session is typically a project with scheduling, studio or on-site time, and post-production — costs commonly run from several hundred dollars upward depending on market and scope, and a re-shoot is needed every time the menu changes. The credit model flips that: photograph new dishes yourself the day they launch, and pay cents per finished image.
We wrote an honest comparison — including the cases where a human photographer is still the better choice — in AI vs hiring a photographer.
Pricing questions
What exactly does one credit buy?
One credit = one photo enhancement, including all AI processing (lighting, background, color, upscaling) and every export format for that photo. Different crops and formats of the same photo do not cost extra.
Do credits expire?
Credits roll over while your account stays active. One-time Try Pack and top-up credits never expire while the account is active.
Is there a free trial?
No. The lowest-commitment way in is the $2.99 one-time Try Pack (5 photos) — it requires no subscription, so you can judge the quality on your own dishes before committing to a monthly plan.
Can I cancel?
Yes, subscriptions can be cancelled anytime. If you believe you were billed in error, FoodPhoto.ai support will review refund requests.
What about high volume — chains, franchises, agencies?
FoodPhoto.ai offers a custom-volume Enterprise plan, with API access available to Enterprise customers on request. Contact them via the pricing page with your expected volume.
