Aibase vs Trybestspecs

Indie creators who want one credit-based workspace for AI images and short AI video without juggling multiple subscriptions · Anyone picking frames online who wants to see a specific shape, colour and material on their own face before ordering, and who is willing to make an account and buy a small credit pack for a batch of renders. The middle pack is the one that makes sense if you plan to compare several styles. Not a fit for readers who want an anonymity-first try-on with no account and no stored history, who need a real fitting or prescription advice rather than a style preview, who want a free trial long enough to judge output on their own face, or who need a named company and a stated jurisdiction before paying.

PriceFree trial credits + paid plans ($29.9/mo Basic, $49.9/mo Pro, $99.9/mo Ultimate; yearly 20–40% off; pay-as-you-go credit packs available)One-time credit packs, no subscription: 10 credits USD 2.99, 30 credits USD 6.99 and 100 credits USD 14.99, each card showing a struck-through list price of USD 4.99 / 9.99 / 24.99. Credits never expire and each try-on costs 1 credit, so the packs buy 10, 30 or 100 generations; the per-credit arithmetic on the page reconciles (about USD 0.30, 0.23 and 0.15). Signup grants 1 credit, which is the entire free tier. The served plan payload marks every pack interval "one-time" with valid_days 0 and carries no recurring flag; the payment providers listed are Stripe and Creem.

  • Credits-as-cost model makes monthly spend harder to forecast than flat-rate plans; users should run a real task before subscribing.
  • Veo 3.1 Pro and Seedance 2.0 are gated to yearly plans / credit packs — Basic and Pro monthly cannot access them.
  • Because AIBase routes to third-party models, each model's provider's terms and safety layers apply on top of AIBase's own.
  • No explicit SOC 2 / security claims located on the public site.
  • Affiliate program live: 30% recurring for the first year, PayPal NET-15 payouts.
