Credit consumption in Video Studio depends on the model you select and your generation settings. This page explains how costs are calculated and lists base credit costs per model.
Credit costs are updated regularly as new models are added and pricing changes. The tooltip in Video mode is always the authoritative source — check it before generating if you want to confirm the exact cost for your current settings.

How to check credits before generating

1

Hover the model name

In Video mode, hover over any model name for approximately 3 seconds. A tooltip appears showing the model’s base credit cost.
2

Adjust your settings

Select your desired options. The following settings can change the total credit cost depending on the model:
  • Duration — longer videos cost more credits
  • Resolution — higher resolutions (720p → 1080p → 4K) increase cost
  • Generate Preview — creates preview frames before the final video, adding to the total
  • Prompt enhancer — AI-assisted prompt improvement may consume additional credits
3

Hover the Create button

Hover over the Create button (or Preview, depending on the mode) to see the total credits for your exact current settings before you commit.

Base cost vs total cost

Base cost is the starting price for a model at its minimum duration and default settings. Total cost increases when you select longer durations, higher resolutions, or optional features like preview generation. Use the base cost table below to compare models, then use the in-app tooltip to confirm the exact cost for your specific configuration.

Credit consumption can vary based on your settings and how many preview frames or variations you generate. The figures above reflect a single generation at the minimum duration with default settings.

Factors that affect credit cost

FactorEffect on credits
Model choicePremium models (Sora 2 Pro, Google Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0 Pro) cost significantly more than standard models
DurationLonger clips consume more credits; cost scales with duration
ResolutionHigher resolutions (1080p, 4K) cost more than 480p or 720p
Generate PreviewEnabling preview frames adds credits to the total before generation begins
Prompt enhancerUsing the AI prompt enhancer may add a small credit cost
