Frequently Asked Questions
Will the cartoon still look like the person?
Yes — every style's instruction explicitly preserves the person's face, likeness, hairstyle, expression and pose. You get a stylised version of them, not a random character. And Undo restores the original photo instantly if you want to try another style.
How much does cartoonifying cost?
One AI credit per generation. Credit packs are 100 for $10 (local currency shown on the pricing page), available on every plan including Free, and purchased credits never expire.
Which style works best for badges?
Cartoon and 3D Toon read best at small badge sizes thanks to bold shapes and clean colours. Sketch and Watercolor shine on larger magnets. Comic looks fantastic with a name in bold curved text.
