Is Higgsfield AI Free? Can You Use It Without a Subscription?
No, Higgsfield AI is NOT Free. You CANNOT use it without a subscription.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is LYING to you or trying to scam you.
I use Higgsfield for a living, so I can tell you quite clearly you NEED to be on a paid plan on Higgsfield to be able to use it.
But then why do they have a free plan?
Honestly, no one knows.
In the past, sometimes they have allowed the free users to use some free tools like Higgsfield Popcorn.
But then they stopped that too.
What’s the cheapest plan?
The cheapest plan is the Basic plan which currently costs $9/month. Here is the pricing page on Higgsfield.
Can I just buy credits and use it on a free plan?
No, you can’t. You need to be on a paid plan to be able to top up credits. LOL.
Sigh! Well at least the unused credits on a paid plan roll over to the next month? Right?! Right?!!
No, they don’t. Credits reset every month. LOL.
So basically I can’t use Higgsfield for free at all?
That’s right!
So is Higgsfield worth paying for?
Absolutely, it’s the best all-in-one AI app. Take it from me – nothing else even comes close to it. Not Freepik, not OpenArt, not Leonardo AI, not Krea…NOTHING!
But why is Higgsfield so special?
Because it’s not just a simple all-in-one AI app where you can use third party AI tools. It is more than that.
That’s because the Higgsfield people themselves come up with a lot of custom apps that make the usage of the existing AI models very easy.
One such example of this is the Cinema Studio feature by Higgsfield. It allows you to use other AI videos in a very streamlined way so you can easily use it for film-making. Here is our tutorial on it:
Example #1- Cinema Studio
Another such example is the Shots app by Higgsfield, which uses Nano Banana Pro as the base model but it allows you create multiple angles of the same shot with a single click. Such an app therefore saves you a lot of time as compared to having to do this on your own manually just with Nano Banana Pro. Here’s our tutorial on it:
Example #2 – Higgsfield Shots
But at least tell me an alternative to Higgsfield that I can use for free?
Honestly there is none. But if you are ok with using an all-in-one AI app with similar but less powerful features than Higgsfield, then the only one which can be used for free is Leonardo AI.
Leaonardo AI can be used for free because on the free plan, they give you credits that replenish on a daily basis, whereas most of the other all-in-one AI apps give free credits that can only be used once and don’t replenish.
To get an idea of this, you can watch our tutorial on Leonardo AI:
Conclusion
Higgsfield AI is the fastest growing AI company in the world (based on actual revenue figures). Yes, you cannot use it for free but trust me, it’s worth trying it out at least for a month. You can always cancel your subscription if you don’t like it.
But there’s no doubt that it currently reigns supreme in the AI world!
