Generated Photos vs Magic AI Avatars

Generated Photos is the synthetic-people library: search thousands of AI-generated faces and full-body humans, or generate custom ones with set age, ethnicity and clothing. 2026 pricing shows $19.99/month for the face generator with 15 monthly downloads, $199/year for the human generator plan with 1,000 priority generations, and API access from about $250/month (check official site). Magic AI Avatars is the smaller, consumer-leaning counterpart aimed at generating stylized avatars from selfies (current pricing unverified; check official site). If the job is licensed stock-style model imagery for ads, Generated Photos is the documented fit; for playful personal avatars, try Magic AI Avatars first. We did not hands-on test either product, so no quality winner is declared.

Use the same input

A marketer needs licensed synthetic model imagery for campaigns and must choose between a stock-style AI people library and a selfie-avatar generator.

What a successful result must preserve

The tool must produce consistent, on-brief synthetic humans for marketing use, grant a clear commercial license, and price the downloads or generations in a way a content team can budget.
