Raelume vs Krea. Dollars instead of compute units. A budget per project.

Krea is an AI creative suite with its own models, real-time generation and a node canvas. Raelume is a node canvas built around prices in dollars and a budget for every project.

The short answer. It depends on how you work.

Choose Raelume if

  • You want to see what a run costs in dollars, not compute units.
  • You work for clients and want a budget per project that stops runs before they go over.
  • You want unlimited seats for $119 a month.
  • You want to walk a 3D world and frame shots with real lenses.

Choose Krea if

  • You want real-time generation and Krea's own models.
  • You train LoRAs on large sets of images.
  • Your team of up to 50 wants one pool of units that rolls over.
