New accounts receive five credits without a credit card. The free plan is available, and the listed subscription with 80 credits per month costs $5 a month. Other subscription and pay-as-you-go credit packages are listed. Main-platform credit purchases have a 14-day refund guarantee, but Shopify App credit purchases are non-refundable.

Pincel is a browser-based suite of more than 50 AI tools for creating and editing images, video, and audio. Its tools include photo editing, object removal, generative fill, portraits, virtual try-on, image-to-video, text-to-video, and audio features. Pincel identifies e-commerce sellers, marketing teams and agencies, small and local businesses, designers, and content teams as its audience. The free Starter plan includes 20 credits and selected tools. Creator costs $19 per month and adds 1,000 credits each month, with unused credits carrying over while the plan remains active. Pincel says generated or edited images may be used personally or commercially, subject to applicable laws and its terms. It says uploaded images are not used to train AI models and that it does not create or store biometric templates. Free-account uploads and outputs are deleted after seven days; paid-account content is deleted after 60 days, with remaining content deleted seven days after a subscription ends. Its Workflows API runs saved image pipelines asynchronously, charges credits per step, supports up to 25 rows per call, and limits concurrent in-flight runs to 75. Web payments are processed by Stripe, which Pincel says does not store card details on its behalf.
