Generation, layout and motion — the AI surfaces that slot into a design workflow instead of replacing it.
Flocci AI Tools lists 56 of them, ordered free tiers first: Genmo (Mochi 1), Hunyuan Image (Tencent), PicLumen, Stable Diffusion (Stability AI) and Adobe Firefly. 51 of the 56 are free or have a free tier. Each entry states what it uniquely does rather than a score.
4 on this page are marked fully free with no paid plan at all: Genmo (Mochi 1), Hunyuan Image (Tencent), PicLumen and Stable Diffusion (Stability AI). The remaining 52 are freemium, trial or paid, and each is labelled with its exact tier so nothing surprises you at sign-up.
They are every catalog entry in 3 sub-categories that map to what designers actually do: explore visual directions, produce assets, lay out a deck, add motion. There is no sponsorship and no paid placement anywhere in the ordering.
