Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite) is a stock-asset and creative platform that rebranded from Freepik on April 28, 2026. Magnific's pricing page now lives at magnific.com/pricing; freepik.com/pricing redirects there. It resells partner models (Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0, Flux.2, Nano Banana 2/Pro, GPT Image 2.0, MiniMax H3, and others) on one annual credit balance, next to a 250M+ stock and vector library. TheNextWeb's rebrand piece cites $230M ARR, 1M+ paying subscribers, and a bootstrapped, profitable company. If your team already pulls Freepik stock, that bundle is the product.

The credit year is the usual reason people search. Premium is $20/mo ($14.5/mo yearly) for 240,000 credits. Premium+ is $45/mo ($33.75/mo yearly) for 600,000 plus a narrow unlimited mode. That pool is annual. Flowith and Photutorial summaries say unused credits do not roll over (not confirmed on an official Magnific policy page). eesel.ai reports heavy video use can exhaust a year's pool in 2-3 days, and that credits can be deducted for errors or unusable results with no automatic refund. The same writeup says annual plans have no mid-term refund after 30 days. Premium+ unlimited covers about 10 image models. Premium image and all video still burn the pool.

Elyum is one studio and one credit balance on the models catalog (50+ video, image, and audio models). 1 credit equals $0.01. Free is up to 150 credits once (our algorithm may grant them), no card. Plus is $9/mo, Pro $29/mo, Ultra $69/mo, and you can top up. Every render returns as a free preview (a take). KEEP is the only charge. KILL refunds the rest, automatically. Failed generations are never charged. Free allows one kill a month; paid plans kill freely. Kept files download clean, no watermark, commercial use included. Listed rates already sit about 20% under Higgsfield, OpenArt, and Runway anchors. Plan math lives on the pricing page.

Skip Elyum if you need Magnific's 250M+ library, Business shared seats, or the in-house Magnific upscaler in the same product. Elyum has no timeline editor, no stock footage, no talking-head avatars, no mobile app, no team seats, and no community feed. Those gaps are product facts, not a roadmap claim.

Why people switch from Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite)

  • Annual credits, no monthly reset

    Magnific Premium puts 240,000 credits on a yearly clock. Flowith and Photutorial say unused credits do not roll over. eesel.ai reports heavy video can empty that year in 2-3 days. Elyum bills monthly (Plus $9, Pro $29, Ultra $69) and sells top-ups when you run out.

  • A bad take is not a sunk cost

    eesel.ai states Magnific deducts credits for errored or unusable outputs, with no automatic refund. That is third-party reporting, not an official policy page. Elyum never charges a failed generation. KILL refunds a preview you do not KEEP.

  • Paid plans start at $9/mo

    Magnific Premium starts at $20/mo ($14.5/mo yearly). Elyum Plus is $9/mo. Magnific's free tier is about 20 in-house images a day and 10 stock downloads, with no credit balance and no API. Elyum Free is up to 150 credits once (our algorithm may grant them), no card.

  • KEEP/KILL before credits move

    Elyum charges only when you KEEP a take. Magnific draws the annual pool as you generate. A 3-second Kling 3.0 4K clip is 1,200 Magnific credits up front. The same family on the Kling 3.0 page is {{price kling-3 per second 5}} for a 5s take, paid only if you KEEP it.

  • Agents and a documented API

    Magnific's free plan has no API, per eesel.ai. Paid-tier API terms were not in the fetched sources. Elyum runs in the browser or from Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor through the MCP docs.

  • Same flagship models, listed rates

    Magnific and Elyum both list Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0, Nano Banana 2/Pro, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, Flux.2 Pro, Seedream 5 Pro, MiniMax H3, and GPT Image 2. Side-by-sides live under the Kling 3.0 compare. Magnific cents-per-credit is not published.

Where Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite) still wins

  • 250M+ stock in one subscription

    Magnific bundles a 250M+ asset library with the AI suite. Free users get 10 stock downloads a day. Paid plans add Premium stock. Elyum does not offer stock stills or footage. If download-and-composite is the daily job, Magnific is the better home.

  • Business seats and a shared pool

    Magnific Business is $55/mo on yearly billing, 1,080,000 credits a year shared, minimum two seats. Elyum has no team seats. One invoice and a shared pool is still a Magnific feature.

  • In-house upscaler and music rights

    Magnific ships the Magnific upscaler it acquired in May 2024, plus its own image model on the free tier (about 20 generations a day). Premium+ and above add a music-rights commercial license. Elyum does not include that upscaler or a separate music-rights SKU.

  • Volume drafts on Premium+ unlimited

    Premium+ unlimited covers about 10 specific, mostly lower-tier image models. It does not cover premium image models or any video. For those 10, a high-volume stills workflow can stay cheaper on Magnific than burning Elyum credits.

What it actually costs

Magnific's pricing page lists Premium at $20/mo ($14.5/mo yearly) for 240,000 credits/year (about 1,600 images or 255 videos by Magnific's estimate). Premium+ is $45/mo ($33.75/mo yearly) for 600,000 credits, unlimited on about 10 image models, and a music-rights license (about 4,000 images or 638 videos/year). Pro is $280/mo ($210/mo yearly); magnific.com lists 1.5M-4M credits/year, eesel.ai lists 4,000,000. Business is $55/mo yearly, 1,080,000 shared credits, min. two seats. List prices: Kling 3.0 3s 4K = 1,200 credits; Veo 3.1 4s = 2,080; GPT Image 2.0 = 400; Nano Banana 2 = 75; Flux.2 Pro = 50; 30s ElevenLabs Music = 600. Cents per credit are not published.

Elyum is Free (up to 150 credits once (our algorithm may grant them), no card), Plus $9/mo, Pro $29/mo, Ultra $69/mo, plus top-ups. 1 credit = $0.01. Pro and Ultra add fair-use unlimited image generation on selected models. Nano Banana 2 is fair-use unlimited on Ultra. Listed model prices already sit about 20% under Higgsfield, OpenArt, and Runway anchors.

Take a 5-second clip on the Veo 3.1 page at 720p: 105 credits ($1.05). You see that as a free take and pay only if you KEEP it. Magnific lists a 4-second Veo 3.1 clip at 2,080 credits. Without a published cents-per-credit figure, that 2,080 cannot be turned into dollars from the research. Two Elyum previews of the same line would read 2 × 105 credits = 210 credits ($2.10), still charged only on KEEP.

Moving from Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite)

  1. Download the Magnific outputs you still need, plus any stock files you already licensed. Leftover Magnific credits are annual and, per third-party summaries, do not roll over, so treat them as use-or-lose on that account.
  2. Create an Elyum Free account (up to 150 credits (our algorithm may grant them), no card). Wait to add a card until a KEEP is worth Plus at $9/mo, Pro at $29/mo, or Ultra at $69/mo.
  3. In the studio, open the Seedance 2.5 page or the matching Kling, Veo, Wan, or Nano Banana model you already use on Magnific.
  4. Generate a preview. KEEP the take you will use (credits charge then). KILL the rest for a full refund. Free accounts get one kill a month; paid plans kill freely.
  5. If you called Magnific from code, paid API terms were not confirmed in the research. Point agents at Elyum's MCP server or scripts at the API docs.

Frequently asked questions

Is Elyum cheaper than Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite)?
Plus is $9/mo against Magnific Premium at $20/mo ($14.5/mo yearly). Ultra is $69/mo against Premium+ at $45/mo or Pro at $280/mo. Magnific does not publish cents per credit, so a 1,200-credit Kling clip cannot be converted to dollars from the research. Elyum prints dollars: a 5s Kling 3.0 take is {{price kling-3 per second 5}}, charged only on KEEP. Failed takes are never charged.
Does Elyum have the same models as Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite)?
Both list Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0, Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana Pro, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, Flux.2 Pro, Seedream 5 Pro, MiniMax H3, and GPT Image 2.

Seedance 2.0, Gemini Omni Flash, and Grok Imagine 1.5 are on Elyum; they were not confirmed on Magnific's fetched pricing list.
What happens to a bad render on Elyum vs Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite)?
On Elyum a failed generation is never charged. A take you dislike can be KILLed for a full automatic refund (one kill a month on Free; unlimited kills on paid). eesel.ai says Magnific deducts credits for errors or unusable results with no automatic refund. An official Magnific policy page confirming that was not in the research, so treat it as third-party reporting.
Can I use Magnific (formerly Freepik AI Suite) and Elyum together?
Yes. Keep Magnific for the 250M+ stock library, Business seats, or the Magnific upscaler. Use Elyum for KEEP/KILL previews on the shared video and image models, monthly top-ups, and agent access. Nothing in either product requires an exclusive login.
What happened to Freepik AI Suite in 2026?
On April 28, 2026 Freepik rebranded the consumer product as Magnific. freepik.com/pricing redirects to magnific.com/pricing. The Freepik name remains on the contributor/stock marketplace. The footer still reads Freepik Company S.L.U., 2010-2026.
Does Elyum include Magnific's stock library?
No. Elyum has no stock footage, no stock stills, and no vector library. Magnific's free tier still includes 10 stock downloads a day. If stock search is the job, stay on Magnific for that part and use Elyum only for generation.
Does Magnific Premium+ unlimited cover video?
No. Magnific's pricing page limits Premium+ unlimited to about 10 specific image models. Premium image models and all video and audio still spend the 600,000 yearly credits. Elyum's fair-use unlimited on Pro and Ultra is also image-only, on selected models, not video.
