AI video cost calculator

Estimate what N minutes of AI video generation cost per month across the catalog's video tools — plan price, credit math, and cost per finished minute. Estimates only: credit rates vary by model, resolution, and plan.

Your generation volume

Standard reference: one generation = one 5-second clip at 1080p. Adjust the sliders to your real output.

Why the numbers differ

Credit economies are not comparable at face value. Pika and Luma publish per-generation credit costs on their pricing pages; Runway and Kling AI meter credits in-app; Veo bills per second through the Gemini API; InVideo and VEED bundle credits with subscriptions. Where a tool does not publish per-generation rates, the calculator marks the estimate as rough.

For the buying decision, pair this calculator with the comparisons, each tool's alternatives page, and the official pricing page before subscribing.
