Predis.ai pricing free plan

15 posts per month. One brand. One user. Watermark on every output. Manual download only. That's the Free plan in five constraints. Everything else is locked.

The post types you can generate are limited to single-image and carousel formats. Video posts, the headline feature of paid tiers, are gated behind Premium. AI caption generation works but the brand-voice customisation tooling is Premium-only - you get generic-Predis voice, not your-brand voice.

Template access is limited to the basic library. The richer templates - product showcases, before/after layouts, multi-frame stories - require Lite or higher. Stock asset access is throttled at Free; you'll see fewer images and fewer rights-cleared options compared to paying tiers.

The hard constraints worth memorising: 15 posts/mo (resets monthly, no rollover), single brand, single seat, watermark forced, no scheduling, no video. If any of those is incompatible with your use case, Free isn't the tier for you - skip straight to Lite at $32.

It works as a 14-30 day evaluation. Generate 5-10 posts, test the quality and workflow fit, decide if Lite at $32 is worth the upgrade. This is the intended path - Predis structured Free specifically to demo the product without enabling indefinite freeloading.

It works for the absolute solo creator posting 2-3x/week on one platform, who doesn't mind a watermark and doesn't need scheduling. That's a real but narrow audience - hobby bloggers, side-project owners testing whether to make the side project bigger.

It doesn't work for any brand that cares about brand image. The watermark is non-removable on Free, and 15 posts/mo isn't enough to sustain a real organic content presence. For DTC brands, agencies, SaaS founders - Lite is the floor, Premium is the realistic target.

The right move: treat Free as a free trial. Use 10-12 of your 15 posts in the first week to evaluate quality. Decide on Lite or Premium based on whether 60 posts (Lite) or 120 (Premium) plus video matches your tempo. Don't try to live on Free - the workflow tax of manual downloads alone makes it false economy.

The honest question isn't 'should I pay for Predis?' - it's 'is my time worth more than $32/mo?'. The math: Lite at $32/mo unlocks (a) direct scheduling on 4 platforms, (b) 4x more posts, (c) watermark removal, (d) full template library, (e) a second team seat. That's a $0.50/day spend to unlock 3-5 hours of workflow time per month for most users.

The single trigger that flips the decision: the moment you publish your first Predis-generated post and notice the watermark. For any brand or business account, that's the upgrade prompt - you can't sustain watermarked output without it being noticed eventually.

The other trigger: hitting the 15-post ceiling mid-month. If you're posting 4-5x/week on one network, you'll exhaust Free quota in the third week. The choice then is wait for next month or pay $32. Most people pay.

If you blow through Lite quickly: predis-ai-pricing-2026 covers the Premium and Agency tier decisions. The short version: Premium at $59 is the default sweet spot for serious users; Agency at $179 only makes sense for actual agencies running 5+ brands.

Canva Free + Buffer Free + ChatGPT Free: roughly comparable free experience to Predis Free, just split across three tools. Lower watermark stigma (Canva watermarks are subtler than Predis branding), more design control, no built-in scheduling on the free Buffer tier. Slower workflow but higher craft ceiling.

ContentStudio Free: 10 posts/mo on a more scheduler-focused free tier. Useful if you want to test scheduling-first AI tools rather than content-first. Limited AI generation, no video.

creatopy-pricing free tier: different category (design tool, not social-AI), but worth knowing exists. Free tier covers basic ad templates with no scheduling. Pick based on whether you need design quality or generation speed.

The honest answer: all the AI social free tiers exist to demo the product. None are sustainable for real publishing. Pick the paid floor that matches your workflow - Predis Lite at $32, Buffer Essentials at $6 + Canva Pro at $13 = $19, or ContentStudio Starter at $25. Predis wins on AI generation, the others win on different jobs.
