What is Leonardo AI?

Leonardo AI is a full image studio rather than a single model. It gathers several image models, many tuned for particular jobs such as game assets, product photography or illustration, and adds a canvas for editing, upscaling and background removal.

That variety suits creators who want control and a range of looks in one place. The credit-based system and busy interface take a little getting used to.
