Overview
Max Studio is a browser-based toolkit for generating and editing media with AI. Its home page advertises more than 100 tools and over 150 effects, sorted into image tools, video tools, image effects and video effects, and it also mentions AI voiceovers.
You choose a tool, add a prompt or upload a file where needed, and generate. Besides text-to-image and text- or image-to-video, it lists utilities such as upscalers, background and object removers, a text eraser and an image expander. It also offers novelty effects like hug or kiss videos, an age changer, a baby generator and a cloth swapper. The site names third-party models you can use through it, including Flux, GPT Image and Gemini 2.5 Flash for images, and its plan tables list video models such as Veo 3, Kling, Sora 2 and Seedance.
Everything described runs on the website; the pages we read didn't mention iOS or Android apps. It is a general creative tool rather than a companion or adult product, and the pages we read say nothing about NSFW content.

Who it suits
Good fit if
- +Creators who want many image, video and audio tools in one web dashboard
- +Short social-media effects such as hug or kiss clips and anime-style filters, using photos you own of people who have agreed
- +Trying several third-party image and video models under one subscription and credit balance
Watch out for
- −Free use is limited: the only free allowance the pricing FAQ mentions is 5 credits at sign-up, and every plan on the pricing page is paid. Credits are shared across tools and each model uses a different amount, so the 'up to' image and video counts depend on which models you pick.
- −The headline prices assume a year billed at once; monthly billing runs from $11.99 to $99.99 a month. The crossed-out prices beside each plan ($23.99 for Basic, for example) are higher than the monthly-billing prices, and while the FAQ likens annual billing to 7 months free, the plan cards put the saving over monthly billing at $24 to $240 a year.
- −Its FAQ says prompts, uploads and results are kept on its servers and suggests leaving sensitive or confidential material out of projects.
- −Several effects change photos of real people (cloth swap, age changer, kiss and hug videos). Only use images you own that show adults who have agreed: creating or sharing sexual or intimate images of a real person without consent is illegal in many countries, for example under the US TAKE IT DOWN Act and the UK Online Safety Act, and can cause serious harm.
Before you sign up
- ✓Confirm the official domain for MaxStudio AI at checkout — typosquat landing pages are common in this niche and can redirect a card payment in seconds.
- ✓Read the privacy policy specifically for how chats, images, and account data are retained, exported, and deleted before you share anything sensitive.
- ✓Check the per-day or per-month image-generation cap on each tier and whether upscaling / private generations are gated to the top plan.
- ✓Verify the seconds-of-video allowance and rendering queue times — video tiers on companion apps often carry the highest hidden cost.
- ✓Test voice latency and accent quality in the free or entry tier; voice minutes are usually the first thing throttled on cheaper plans.
- ✓Try building one character in the creator before subscribing — depth of personality controls varies wildly between vendors.
