Claid: cost, fit and limits
Claid is an AI image tool and API made by Lets Enhance Inc. that runs AI photoshoots, background removal, upscaling, shadows and fashion models on product images, priced in credits per operation for online sellers and developers.
What to know first
Claid prices every action in credits: a background removal costs 1 credit, an AI photoshoot 4 credits, an upscale 2 to 8 credits and a 5-second AI video 60 credits. The free trial gives 50 credits, and Essentials and Pro allowances are printed (for example 125 and 500 AI photoshoots per month), but their dollar prices were not readable in the page text. A separate API has its own pricing page.

What Claid does
- AI Photoshoot
- Generates product photo scenes at 4 credits each. The Pro plan lists 500 of them per month, so scene work and cutouts share one credit pool.
- AI Backgrounds and AI Fashion models
- Template backgrounds and AI models for apparel are listed together, aimed at stores that show clothing on people without a shoot. The 4-credit price of a photoshoot applies to each generation.
- Image Expander and AI Shadows
- Outpainting extends a product image beyond its frame, and AI Shadows adds shadows so a cutout does not float on a new background. Both are listed as product-image operations on the pricing page, billed from the same credit pool as photoshoots.
- Upscale and cutout
- Remove background costs 1 credit per operation and Enhance and Upscale 2 to 8 credits, depending on the size, according to the pricing page. Upload size caps differ by tier.
- AI Video
- A 5-second clip costs 60 credits and is listed for the Pro and Essentials tiers, with Essentials capped at 8 generations per month. Higher tiers list more generations, but the credits are shared with photo work.
How Claid handles your data
Claid's privacy policy says data is kept as long as necessary to provide the services and for fraud or legal purposes, that it is not stored indefinitely, and that data can be deleted from the account. A Data Processing Agreement is offered for GDPR and CCPA. The terms bar customers from using the paid services to generate AI training data, but the pages we opened do not say whether Claid trains its own models on uploads. No hosting region and no certification such as SOC 2 are stated.
Where Claid falls short in practice
- Two paid prices unreadable. Essentials and Pro cards are rendered by script, so their prices were not in the opened text. Business is quote-based, so a buyer must check the live page.
- Trial and entry upload caps. The trial has no AI video, keeps history for 24 hours and caps uploads at 10 MB, and Essentials caps uploads at 24 MP, which matters for large studio files.
- Company location not stated. The terms cite California law and JAMS arbitration in Los Angeles County, but no opened page states the company's country, which matters to buyers with data residency rules.

Alternatives to Claid
Claid: common questions
How many credits does a Claid AI photoshoot use?
An AI photoshoot costs 4 credits per generation. The 50-credit free trial therefore covers 12 photoshoots, and the pricing page lists 125 on Essentials and 500 on Pro per month. Background removal costs 1 credit and upscaling 2 to 8.
What does Claid's free trial include?
The trial gives 50 credits to use on any operation: 25 upscales, 50 background removals or 12 AI photoshoots. It has no AI video, a 24-hour browse history and a 10 MB / 48 MP upload limit, according to the pricing page.
Does Claid have an API for product photos?
Yes, the API has its own pricing page and a 50-credit starter pack. It lists endpoints for upscaling, background removal, shadows, AI fashion and text-to-image, and an Enterprise API is also named on the site. Business adds custom SLAs for larger accounts.
Can Claid make product videos?
AI Video is listed at 60 credits per 5-second clip. Essentials allows 8 generations per month and Pro 33, while the free trial has none. Photo work is the main use of the credits, so plan video separately. The pricing page does not list AI video on the free trial.
Does Claid use my images to train AI?
The pages we opened do not say. The terms bar customers from using the paid services to generate AI training data, which is a different matter, and a Data Processing Agreement is offered for GDPR and CCPA. Ask the vendor about training before uploading unreleased products.
