Ideogram

What it is

Ideogram specializes in images with lettering: posters, covers, banners and packaging. Ideogram 4.0 (June 3, 2026) is an open-weights model with a commercial license: dense multilingual text, control over where a logo or headline sits through bounding boxes, and output in 2K. It works on the website and through the API, and there's a free plan.
