AI reverse image search that identifies faces, locations, and objects from uploaded photos with categorized results.
Editor's take: “Free search runs on limited credits — seeing the results is what costs” — Sohail Akhtar
How we checked: read directly from the vendor's own pricing page — source
Re-read 25 September 2026. The pricing page still names three tiers and prices none of them. It also says free search runs on credits and sells unlimited searching as a paid feature, the opposite of what our listing told readers in nine places.
| What | What we found | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Tier names | Starter, Professional and Developer. Confirmed on the vendor's own pricing page. | Confirmed |
| Prices | Not published. lenso.ai/en/pricing compares the three tiers by feature and shows no figure for any of them; the numbers appear only inside the signup flow.Our $19.99 / ~$60.63 / ~$2,425 figures are retained but relabelled as indicative rather than confirmed. Precision like $60.63 is the shape of a real annualised figure, and deleting a possibly-correct price helps nobody — the akool precedent. | Vendor doesn't publish this |
| The unlock model | Free search runs on credits. The pricing page's own words: 'Not enough credits in free search? With Starter Plan, you can make unlimited searches for all images, in all categories!' Paid tiers are sold with unlimited search and 'no watermark'; revealing a match spends a metered unlock.Our 8 September entry recorded searching as unlimited on every tier while quoting this same sentence. That was our misreading, not a change by Lenso. It had spread to the meta description, both relevant FAQs, the rating reason, the review, the summary, the pricing text, the free-tier row and a con; all nine were corrected on 25 September 2026. | Confirmed |
| A contradiction we were publishing | Two near-duplicate FAQs gave opposite answers. One said searching is free and unlimited; the other said the free tier has limited daily searches and that paid plans buy higher search volumes.The second was wrong twice: searches are unlimited on every tier, so 'higher search volumes' describes a product Lenso does not sell. It also duplicated a question inside the FAQPage JSON-LD. Replaced with the question a buyer actually has here — whether the price is visible before signup. It is not. A catalogue-wide scan found this was the only listing with duplicate FAQ questions. | Changed since last check |
Editor verification notes
Checked by the TheToolsVerse Verification Desk — by reading the vendor's own published pages, not by testing the product in an account. Lenso.ai can change prices at any time without notice. The date above is the last time we looked; if it looks old, treat every figure here as unconfirmed and check Lenso.ai directly before paying.

Limitations
| Plan | Details |
|---|---|
| Free | Searches with basic filters across face, place, and object detection, on a limited allowance of credits — and results are previews only and watermarked, so you can see that matches exist without seeing them properly. No unlocks, alerts, or API access. |
| Paid | Starter $19.99/mo (50 unlocks, 10 alerts, watermark-free, saved images); Professional ~$60.63/mo (500 unlocks, 50 alerts, Research Mode with up to 10,000 results, advanced filters); Developer ~$2,425/mo (API with 5,000 calls, 5,000 unlocks, 500 alerts, priority support). Annual billing saves ~20%. None of these figures is published on lenso.ai/en/pricing, which compares the three tiers without pricing them, so they are indicative rather than confirmed by us. Checked 8 September 2026. |
Lenso.ai works on an "unlock" model, which is the key thing to understand: free searching runs on a limited allowance of credits and only shows result previews (watermarked, basic filters), while paid plans add unlimited searching — and revealing the actual matches costs unlocks. Starter is $19.99/month for 50 unlocks, 10 monitoring alerts, saved images, and watermark-free results. Professional is around $60.63/month for 500 unlocks, 50 alerts, and Research Mode (access to up to 10,000 results) with advanced filters. Developer is an enterprise tier (roughly $2,425/month) adding API access with 5,000 API calls, 5,000 unlocks, and 500 alerts. Annual billing is advertised as cutting about 20%. One caveat on all of those figures: lenso.ai/en/pricing, read on 8 and again on 25 September 2026, names Starter, Professional and Developer and compares their features but publishes no prices — the numbers only appear inside the signup flow. We have kept ours because they are specific enough to have come from a real source, but we did not confirm them against Lenso's own page.
