In their own words
Poster
Poster is a web and browser-extension design tool that turns creative prompts into editable posters. It offers five generation paths—Smart, Creative, Exact, Professional, and Style Fusion—then lets you revise text or replace objects with AI, adjust layers and layouts manually, upload images, and add QR codes. Eligible standard 1K and 2K creations with an Edit button can return to the editor; 4K posters are download-only. Generation uses 2–5 credits according to model and resolution, with the exact charge shown before starting. The free plan costs nothing and gives new users five credits, 1080p output, PNG and JPG downloads, and community support. Starter costs $9.90 a month with 200 monthly credits, 4K downloads, PDF export, custom brand colors and fonts, commercial usage rights, and a priority queue. Pro costs $29.90 a month and adds 700 monthly credits, team workflow, API-ready content rights, and priority support. One-time credit packs are also available.
