How much does AI virtual staging cost here?
AI Staging Photos uses one-time credit packs rather than a subscription. One credit generates one design in the room tool or property studio. A pack is an upfront purchase, so a small project may leave credits for later. Compare that cash outlay with the per-design rate when choosing a pack.
| Pack | Upfront price | Designs | Price per design if fully used |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $19.9 | 29 | $0.69 |
| Plus | $39.9 | 60 | $0.67 |
| Pro | $99.9 | 160 | $0.62 |
Budget for versions, not just final photos
Six photos with two designs each means twelve generation attempts, even if you select only six final images. Regenerating or trying another style uses another credit. An attempt that fails returns its credit; deleting a completed design does not. The estimate checks combinations of the current packs that cover your planned designs, including any unused credits.
Purchased credits do not expire. Paid designs include full-resolution downloads without the preview watermark. Free previews are separate: each account starts with 2 free watermarked designs and no credit card is required. This calculator does not subtract those previews or inspect your account balance.
How does this relate to traditional staging costs?
For context, NAR’s 2025 Profile of Home Staging reported a median cost of $1,500 when a staging service was used and $500 when the seller’s agent handled staging. These are survey figures for home staging, not per-image virtual staging prices or a quote for your property.
Source: NAR’s May 6, 2025 report announcement. The survey received 1,266 usable responses in February 2025. Figures checked October 8, 2026. Our calculator uses only our published credit packs; physical staging includes different services such as furniture and installation. The figures do not establish a savings percentage or a sales outcome for this product.
