Magnific is the new name for Freepik's AI creative platform. It includes AI image, video and audio generation with many third-party models, the Magnific image and video upscalers, editing tools, a shared canvas called Spaces, and a stock library of 250M+ assets. In the US, plans started at $20 a month on 27 September 2026, and prices vary by country.

Magnific is now the new name for Freepik

Magnific began as an AI image upscaler at magnific.ai. Freepik has since renamed its whole platform Magnific: magnific.com says 'Freepik is now Magnific', and magnific.ai now redirects there (checked 3 October 2026).

According to Magnific's FAQ, existing magnific.ai subscriptions continue without disruption until they expire. The upscaler is now one tool inside a larger platform with image, video and audio models and a stock library.

What it really isMagnific (formerly Freepik): an AI creative platform with image, video and audio models, the Magnific upscalers and a stock library.
Our takeMagnific is no longer only the upscaler our earlier review covered.
It is Freepik's platform under a new name, with credit-based plans that include image, video and audio models, the Magnific upscalers, Spaces and 250M+ stock assets. Credits on annual plans are valid for a year, and Magnific says it does not train on your data.
Why we rate itMagnific puts many leading image and video models, its own upscalers and a large stock library behind one credit system, with a commercial AI license on every plan.
The catchPricing is localized and promotions change often, so the price you see may differ.
Credits are spent at different rates per model, which makes costs harder to predict.

Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

  1. Time to value
    Moderate: Requires subscription and learning curve to utilize advanced features.
  2. Scale breakpoint
    Heavy video or 4K image use burns credits quickly; extra credits can be topped up.
  3. Walled garden
    Moderate: Outputs are exportable, but the tool's unique features are not easily replicated elsewhere.
