AI video and image generation pricing

Credits, settings and example counts

1 Credit = US$0.01. The table estimates each pack independently at one public reference profile. Video prices describe the reserve-cap budget, not a historical sample bill. Always request a fresh quote before generating.

How much does one video actually cost?

These are three common Seedance 2.5 text-to-video profiles: 16:9, silent, without reference media. Values come from current public quotes and describe reserve caps, not a guaranteed final charge. Request a fresh quote for image-to-video or added references.

Actual charge example: the three product-photo videos generated on 2026-10-15 used Wan 3.0, 5 seconds, the 720p profile, adaptive aspect ratio and audio. Each settled at 60 Credits (US$0.60), excluding image editing. This measured task reserved 135 Credits (US$1.35), settled at 113 Credits (US$1.13) and returned 22 Credits. This is one historical settlement, not a fixed price for future tasks. Historical tasks illustrate settlement, not a future price guarantee.

Image preparation: uploading an existing licensed product photo does not consume image-generation credits. Creating or editing a scene in the image tool is a separate paid task. Image editing and video generation have separate quotes and charges. Planning shots and downloading a completed result do not trigger another video-generation charge.

Preview and plan your next creation: upload references with clear lettering and shapes, and review one shot before arranging another generation. Successful outputs normally remain billable, including results whose lettering, shape or effect needs adjustment. Another generation is a new task with a fresh quote, reserve and separate credit charge. A confirmed failed task with its refund processed releases reserved credits; for pending, uncertain or review statuses, check the original task and return record first. Credit returns and cash refunds are handled separately; returned credits do not automatically trigger a cash refund.

Compare budgets at the same settings

Start a model comparison with the intended shot and input workflow. Text-to-video begins with a prompt; image-to-video adds a reference image. A quote for one workflow cannot stand in for another. Record the model, duration, resolution, aspect ratio, audio and reference media, then request valid quotes for the same task. An available range in a model catalog does not mean every parameter combination can be submitted. The valid quote in the studio is the basis for proceeding.

Test one shot for composition and motion before budgeting the full project. Revising a prompt or setting and generating again creates another task that needs its own budget. Downloading an existing result, editing it in an external tool and generating a replacement are different actions. Any subscription or fees charged by an external editing tool are outside these ClipmivoAI credit estimates.

After a successful payment, check the balance and order first. If the balance has not updated, refresh the account and review the transaction record before buying again; contact support if needed. For a pending generation, review your creations before choosing another action. Keep your required outputs and project files. The validity period of a credit top-up is not a promise of permanent media storage.

Questions before buying and generating

Do I need a subscription? Will I be charged automatically?

No. Credits are one-time top-ups, with no subscription or automatic renewal.

How long do purchased credits last?

Purchased credits are valid for 365 days. Top-ups expire separately; check your account records.

Are credits returned when generation fails?

Confirmed failed tasks release reserved credits. Check your creations before repeating a pending task. Top-up refunds are separate and follow the Terms and Refund Policy.

Do the website and API share one balance?

Website, API and CLI generation under the same account uses one credit balance. Each generation needs its own quote.

How can I check my payment receipt?

Check your account order and the payment provider’s receipt. Tax invoice or receipt availability depends on the provider and transaction region. Contact [email protected] for help.

Are the example counts guaranteed?

No. Each count independently assumes the whole balance is used for one example profile; video and image counts cannot be added together. Request a new quote after changing model, duration, resolution, audio or references.
