Anyone using Higgsfield? Trying to work out the real markup behind the credits
I’ve been looking at Higgsfield and the product looks slick, but I’m trying to understand the actual economics behind it.
Their pricing is all credit-based, which makes it hard to compare against the raw API cost of the models they’re wrapping.
From what I can see, the upsell seems to be:
cheap starter plan with barely enough credits to do much
Plus as the real entry point
Ultra pushed as the “lowest cost per credit” plan
annual billing to lock you in
“unlimited” models that are probably limited to specific lower-cost models
The weird bit is that some models might not even be heavily marked up. Kling/Veo could actually be close to API cost or even cheaper than public pricing if they have bulk deals. But then cheaper image models, unused credits, annual plans, and vague credit burn are probably where the money is made.
Has anyone here actually used Higgsfield heavily?
Do the credits last in real use, especially with premium video models like Veo, Sora, Kling, Seedance, etc.? Or do you quickly get pushed into the higher tiers once you start generating properly?
