The flow, step by step
Each step takes the previous step's output. The tool named is the one we would reach for first; the swaps further down show other routes.
Step 1: Generate scene and background options
Why this tool. It produces scene options from text prompts. The Basic plan's Fast GPU time is capped each month, so check the allowance before a large batch.
Step 2: Edit and extend the chosen image
Why this tool. Adobe's image model for edits and extensions. Read the licence terms on the review page before any commercial use.
Step 3: Build ad and listing variants
Why this tool. It builds ad and listing layouts from the product image. The tool is sold by credits.
Monthly cost, with the arithmetic
List prices for the lowest paid monthly plan in our pricing tracker. Annual figures are the per-month equivalent on annual billing, shown for reference only and not used in the total.
| Step | Tool and plan | Monthly | Annual, per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | MidjourneyBasic plan | $10 | $8 |
| 2 | Adobe Firefly | price not published | n/a |
| 3 | AdCreative.ai | price not published | n/a |
| Total per month | $10plus 2 tools not published | ||
Sum
$10 + price not published + price not published = $10 plus 2 tools with price not published
Only published monthly list prices are added. Each line is the plan named above. Seats, credits bought on top, usage over the stated allowance and taxes are not included.
Cheaper and premium swaps
Each swap replaces one step and recalculates the total. The difference is taken from the published prices above.
Premium
Replaces Midjourney. 30 hours of Fast GPU time a month, against 3.3 hours on Basic.
Costs $50 more a month. $10 to $60. Blueprint total with this swap: $60 + price not published + price not published = $60 plus 2 tools with price not published.

How this blueprint was built
The steps are a suggested order based on what each tool's review and official documentation describe. The price figures come only from the pricing tracker, read from each vendor's pricing page and checked on the dates shown. Nothing here has been timed or benchmarked, and the chain is not a promise of any result.
Before you buy, read the tool's review for usage limits, seat rules and commercial-use terms. Those can change the plan you need, and so the total.
