Imgflip review

Imgflip is the meme maker many people already know, and its AI is now part of the standard editor: Imgflip says the AI button in the main Meme Generator supports all templates, including custom uploads. You can choose between an OpenAI GPT model, which gives more polished captions and works best when you type a subject, and the older classic model, which Imgflip describes as a character-level network trained on its top 48 templates. GPT captions are free for 25 a month with a login. Pro Basic costs $4.95 a month billed yearly or $5.95 billed monthly and adds AI creation tools, background removal, no ads and removal or customization of the imgflip.com watermark. Full Pro at $11.95 a month billed yearly adds watermark control and higher quality on GIFs. The catalog of over 1 million templates is the biggest draw. Image editing is basic next to Canva. We compared documented features and published prices rather than testing the app.
