Playground is a free-to-use online AI image creator that allows users to create and edit images with AI-powered tools, offering functionalities like mixed image editing, object fitting, and sketch conversion into realistic images.
Playground offers a powerful AI image editor to create graphics like a pro without being one. Competitors include other AI image generation platforms like MidJourney, Stable Diffusion, DALL-E by OpenAI, Artbreeder, DeepArt, and many others. Playground differentiates itself with user-friendly UI and tools for both novice and professional creators, focusing on mixed image editing and community collaboration. It offers great flexibility and a vast array of tools, all nicely displayed in one pleasant and intuitive interface. Compared to MidJourney’s Discord bot or various interfaces of Stable Diffusion, Playground definitely stand out for its user experience. Furthermore, it tries to add a layer of creativity with its Canvas functionality. Finally, Playground stands out for its pricing strategy, offering up to 100 image generations per day for free, and paid plans are cheaper than MidJourney.
The target user base includes digital artists, designers, content creators, and anyone interested in exploring AI-powered image creation without the need for advanced technical skills.
Users can sign up using Google. No other method is currently available.
The image generator editor is quite rich in parameters and features that users can play with:
Filter: users can choose some pre-defined filters to give their prompts a well-defined style.
Expand Prompt: users can use AI to expand and enrich their initial prompt.
Exclude from image: users can specify what they DO NOT want to see in their generated image (aka, negative prompts).
Upload image: users can upload or draw an image as additional reference.
Control Traits: users can control traits like edge, depth and pose, eventually even uploading a reference image.
Presets: users can save their settings and prompt for future generations.
Model: users can choose between proprietary model (Playground v2 or v2.5) or Stable Diffusion. Alternatively, they can let the program choose autonomously based on the prompt and settings.
Image Dimensions: users can choose the preferred ration and size.
Speed & Quality: users can choose whether to prioritize speed or quality (adding steps improve quality but requires more time).
Seed: users can input a number. Different numbers will generate different images.
Number of images: users can choose whether to generate 1, 2, or up to 8 images.
Private Session: users can choose to make the images generated private. For continued usage, Pro subscription is required.
One generated, users can choose to:
create variations of that image (the result will be a very similar image)
download
creative upscale (improve the definition and enrich with details the existing image).
Edit in canvas: directly move the generated image to canvas, a playground where users can edit images, combine two or more images into one, and much more. Canvas is a super useful tool where users can have a comprehensive overview of a series of creations. Especially useful for storyboards, comics, or other projects where many images, often with some common elements, are needed.
Users can create up to 100 images per day for free. Anything above that requires a subscription, which can be Pro or Turbo. Check below the three tiers:
Playground allows anyone to generate images with a simple prompt, leveraging Playground proprietary model (currently up to v2.5). Playground's further innovations involve intuitive image editing tools powered by AI, such as erasing unnecessary elements, fitting objects into scenes seamlessly, and turning sketches into realistic images.
