The short answer: 1 credit = 1 second of finished video. You buy credits when you need them, in the amount you choose, and you only spend them when you generate. There's no subscription and no plan to pick.
How credits work
credits used = seconds of finished video
That's the whole rule. A video uses exactly as many credits as it is seconds long, so you always know the cost before you press generate. Every style, presenter, voice, and caption option uses the same rule: nothing costs extra.
A single video can be up to 30 seconds long. A shorter video uses fewer credits, so a quick hook costs less than a full-length piece.
Your first 30 seconds are free
Every new account starts with 30 credits, which is your first 30 seconds of video:
- No card needed to sign up
- No watermark, so you can post the result
- Free credits never expire
- The full product: all 5 styles, presenters, voices, captions, and publishing
Create a free account and make your first video before you spend anything.

| Creator (most popular) | 500 | $45 |
| Studio (best value) | 2,000 | $160 |

Packs are a convenience, not a commitment. You can buy a Starter pack today, a Creator pack next month, or nothing at all for a while.
Examples
Just testing an idea. Use your free 30 seconds first. If you want a little more to test, the Starter pack gives you 50 credits for $5, which is 50 seconds of video.
A steady month of posting. The Creator pack gives you 500 credits for $45, which is 500 seconds of video. It's the most popular choice for founders who post regularly.
Posting heavily across accounts. The Studio pack gives you 2,000 credits for $160, which is 2,000 seconds of video. It's the best value if you post a lot.
You want an exact amount. Type in a custom amount from 50 credits up. For example, 120 credits is $12 and 250 credits is $25, at $0.10 per credit.
Credits don't disappear
- Bought credits stay usable for 6 months from purchase, so a quiet month doesn't waste them.
- Your free 30 seconds never expire.
- No subscription means there's nothing to cancel and no monthly charge.
What if something goes wrong?
If a render fails on our side, the credits are refunded automatically. If you cancel a generation yourself, they aren't, because the work has already been done.
Does the style change the price?
No. Corner Overlay, Reaction Cam, Mixed B-Roll, Phone Screen, and Screen + Voice all use the same rule: 1 credit per second.
