PRICING CHECK (2026-10-17): photoroom.com/pricing now shows three paid plans plus Enterprise -- **Pro $7.50, Max $20.99 and a new Ultra tier at $82.50 per month, billed yearly** -- with monthly AI-credit pools (8,000 / 25,000 / 75,000) and export allowances (1,000 / 3,000 / 10,000). Core tools are uncapped on every paid plan; credit tools draw from the pool. Each paid plan includes an API/MCP credit wallet worth the plan's price, usable through the REST API or Photoroom's MCP server in tools like Claude. The free tier is not shown on the pricing page itself.
