Folio Poster vs Text to Poster

Folio Poster is a web editor for scientific conference posters intended for A0 print. It exports A0 or A1 PDFs in portrait or landscape at 300 DPI, and each poster can include a companion web page reached through a QR code printed on the poster. The editor supports research sections such as introduction, methods, and results, alongside tables, charts, KPIs, and figures. Listed data blocks include tables, bar charts, donut charts, and large-number KPIs. Seven color themes are available, and the interface and section labels can be displayed in English or French. Its listed audiences span medical and health research, experimental sciences, psychology and humanities, thesis and doctoral work, engineering and computing, and allied health. The free plan provides four templates, A0 PDF export, and a companion page, but its PDF carries a light Folio Studio watermark. A one-time 0.99 EUR payment removes the watermark from one poster; the one-time 2.49 EUR AI pack adds five generations but does not unlock Pro templates or remove the watermark. Pro costs €3.99 a month or €29.99 a year and includes all 17 templates, 10 AI-assisted generations every 30 days, and watermark-free exports for all posters.

Text to Poster turns a written brief into up to four poster directions, including artwork, layout and typography. Users can also paste an article, event page or announcement URL; the service extracts a title, key message and points into an editable brief. Listed styles are Movie, Minimal, Anime, Business, Vintage and Neon. Guests can make two watermarked generations without signing in, and those images remain available for 24 hours. A free account receives 20 welcome credits that do not expire, with account images kept for seven days. The free plan costs nothing and includes 1K output, low or medium quality, watermark-free downloads and up to two reference images. Paid plans include Creator at $9.90 a month for 500 credits, Studio at $19.90 a month for 1,000 credits, and Scale at $49.90 a month for 3,000 credits. A standard 1K poster costs two credits and a 4K Max run costs 115; failed generations are not charged. Subscription posters may be used commercially subject to model provider terms; watermarked trial posters are for personal use only.
