Ideogram alternative

An Ideogram alternative, with Ideogram v4 included

Ideogram is the go-to for text inside images: logos, posters and signs that are spelled right. Its free work is public, its free credits only go to accounts that sign in with Google, Apple or Microsoft, and monthly credits don't roll over. Thague includes Ideogram v4 alongside other strong text models like GPT Image and Qwen Image, privately, with credits that carry over.

Ideogram's models are in Thague too

Ideogram v4 is in Thague's Image tab, at about 15 credits ($0.15) an image, next to GPT Image, Qwen Image and Recraft.

Questions

Can I use Ideogram's model in Thague?

Yes, Ideogram v4 is in the Image tab at about 15 credits ($0.15) an image (checked October 2026). Ideogram's newest model, 4.5, is only on Ideogram itself.

What's the best Ideogram alternative for text in images?

For accurate lettering, try GPT Image 2.5 (about 7 credits an image) and Qwen Image 3.0 (about 9 credits, strong in non-Latin scripts) alongside Ideogram v4. Thague lets you run the same prompt on all three.

How much does Thague cost?

Can I use the same models I used on Ideogram?

Often, yes. Thague has 80+ image models and 58 video models from many makers, including Nano Banana, GPT Image, Seedream, Flux, Ideogram and Recraft for images and Veo 3.1, Kling, Seedance, Hailuo, PixVerse, Pika, Vidu and Wan for video. You pick the model for each run.

What happens if a generation fails?

Its credits are refunded automatically. Every image, edit and video is priced before it starts, so you always see the cost first.

Does Thague keep my prompts?

No. Your prompts and history are kept in your own browser, there's no public gallery, and the server removes finished jobs a day after they finish.
