Microsoft Designer Review
Free DALL·E-powered image generation via Bing and Microsoft Designer — no subscription needed.
Rating: 3.8/5
Microsoft Designer (formerly Bing Image Creator) is the best free option for casual image generation. It uses DALL·E 3 under the hood, so quality is solid, and you don't need any subscription. The tradeoff: minimal editing controls, no inpainting, no API. It's great for social media posts, quick mockups, and exploring what AI image generation can do — without spending a cent.
Pros
- Completely free with no subscription required
- Powered by DALL·E 3 — decent quality for a free tool
- Simple interface that anyone can use immediately
Cons
- Limited editing controls — text-to-image only, no inpainting
- Slower generation after daily boosts are used up
