Our verdict

A good pick for anyone making social posts from templates, with a usable free plan and apps on most devices. Skip it if you need pro-level photo or vector editing, or pay-as-you-go teams on a tight budget.

What it does well

  • Free plan with 1.6M+ templates and 5GB of storage
  • Apps for Mac, Windows, iOS and Android
  • Pro adds background remover and social content scheduling

Where it falls short

  • Free plan has no background remover or social scheduling
  • Free plan allows only 20 AI uses; Pro caps premium AI at 200
  • Pro is for one person only; teams need Business at US$250 per person per year
