With our personal plan, you receive 10 credits per month. Each video credit is equivalent to up to 1 minute of video. This means you can create a single 10-minute video, ten 1-minute videos, or a combination of both. Please note that anything between 1 and 60 seconds in length will be rounded up and count as a credit, so you can create a maximum of 10 videos per month.

Example, a video that is 1 minute and 30 seconds long would consume 2 credits.

Credits will only be charged when a video is generated.

Please note that if you edit a video and re-generate it, the appropriate amount of credits will be consumed.

If you need to re-generate your video due to a technical error, please contact our support team so that we can discuss providing the necessary credits back to your account.

Yes you can add additional credits by contacting our support team!

We offer additional credits at a rate of $30 for 10, or $60 for 20 (which is the monthly maximum).

If you are interested in more than 30 credits per month, you may want to consider our corporate plans. In that case, please contact our sales team to book a free demo on our website.

Currently, it is not possible to see how many credits you have left or used on the platform. However, our teams are working hard to make this feature available. If you would like to obtain a credit update, please contact our support team.

Once a video is generated on STUDIO, it must go through a processing phase that includes all uploaded assets, such as images, audio, and backgrounds. We also perform moderation on all of our content, both automatically and manually.

The overall processing usually takes only a few minutes, but it can take longer depending on the length of your video and the assets used. If your video has been processing for more than a few hours, please contact our support team.

We moderate 100% of our content. Moderation happens through both automated systems and manually. Whilst automatic moderation is instant, manual moderation requires further time for approval.

If your video is awaiting moderation, it will be reviewed by our Moderation Team as soon as possible. Please do not submit the video multiple times, as this will hinder the process. If your video has been under manual review for longer than 24 hours please contact our support team.

If you have not received your demo video, please check your spam folder. If the video is not in your spam folder, it may have been rejected due to going against our content moderation guidelines. We moderate 100% of our content, so if your script does not meet our guidelines, you will not receive a generated video.

Currently, it is not possible to change the video resolution, aspect ratio, or format of your video.

Please be aware that this process can take up to 3-4 weeks and is currently only available in English.
