Krea Realtime Freemium

Live AI image generation that redraws as fast as you type or draw

Krea Realtime is a live canvas from Krea AI that redraws an image as you move your cursor or change the prompt. There is no render button โ€” you watch the picture update in front of you, which changes how you explore ideas rather than just what you end up with.

What is Krea Realtime?

Krea AI is a design-tool company whose canvas lowers image generation latency to near-zero. Realtime mode streams a continuous preview, so you can scribble a shape and see it become a realistic object instantly. It runs in the browser, has a free tier, and Pro costs about $24/month with higher resolution and priority compute.

Krea Realtime Features

  • Live canvas: the image updates continuously as you draw or edit.
  • Sketch-to-image: rough shapes convert into detailed objects in real time.
  • Prompt blending: change text and watch the scene shift without a full re-render.
  • Image-to-image: drop in a reference and refine it interactively.
  • Upscaling: Krea’s enhancer sharpens output for export.
  • Model choice: swap between supported base models on the paid plan.

Product Highlights

The feel is the feature. Moodboarding at 30 frames per second makes you try ten directions in the time one static generation used to take. For art direction and client calls, showing a live morphing image beats sending a dozen stuck renders.

But realtime trades fidelity for speed. The live preview is lower quality than a full offline render, so final pieces still need a standard generation pass. Heavy scenes also lag on modest machines, and the best resolution sits behind the paid tier.

Who Should Use Krea Realtime?

Ideal for concept artists, product designers and art directors exploring direction fast. Not the right tool if you only need one polished final image โ€” a standard generator is cheaper and sharper.

Use Cases

  • Moodboarding visual directions in a live client session.
  • Sketching a product concept and seeing it rendered instantly.
  • Iterating color and lighting without re-rendering each time.
  • Turning a rough wireframe into a styled mockup.
  • Blending two reference images interactively.
