Price

Basic at $16/month for 6 photos per month, billed as $192 yearly, per its own pricing page.

About $2.67 per photo at the Basic tier. Its Enterprise tier works out to about $0.53 per photo, far below any per photo reading of RELTO's subscription. Credits do not roll over.

Free offer

Free trial; no free plan, per the Rankite comparison table.

Turnaround as published

About 10 to 15 seconds per photo.

Disclosure and compliance findings

Claims to be fully MLS compliant, but reviewers found no disclosure tool behind the claim, and Rankite notes the site says little about usage rights for staged images. A bare compliance claim earns claim points only under our methodology.

Image integrity verification

No published verification step against the original photo was found.

Where it beats the field

Virtual Staging AI beats RELTO on raw per photo price at volume on its Enterprise tier.
