AI Video Generator

The AI Video Generator makes short video clips from a text prompt or from your own images. You choose from 20 leading video models, including Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.5 and Kling 3.0, and many of them add sound to the clip. It is made for creators and marketers who need b-roll, product shots, social clips or scenes for a longer edit.

The AI Video Generator needs purchased credits. A clip costs about 3 to 600 credits, depending on the model, the length and the resolution. Runway makes a 5 second 720p clip for 3 credits.

What you can make

  • A scene from a text description, such as a product on a kitchen table at sunrise.
  • An animated version of a photo: your image becomes the first frame of the clip.
  • A clip that moves from one image to another, with a first and a last frame.
  • Clips with sound effects and ambient sound, with models that make native sound.
  • Vertical clips for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, or wide clips for YouTube.
  • Shots for a longer video that you cut together in the AI B-Roll Editor.

How it works

  1. Open the AI Video Generator. Veo 3.1 is selected by default.
  2. Pick a model. The controls change to the options that model supports.
  3. Write your prompt. Describe the subject, the action, the camera and the light.
  4. Optional: add a reference image as the first frame, and a second one as the last frame.
  5. Choose the ratio, the length, the resolution and the sound, where the model offers them.
  6. Press Generate. The button shows the price before you start.
  7. Your clip appears when it is ready, and it is saved in My Works.

Pricing

Every clip costs credits. The price depends on the model, the length, the resolution and, on some models, the sound switch. The Generate button shows the exact price before you start.

The AI Video Generator needs purchased credits. Invite credits also work. Free check-in credits do not pay for AI video clips. Any purchase unlocks all 20 models.

A failed clip is refunded automatically. See the credits and pricing guide for plans and packs. Plan prices are in USD, and checkout shows other currencies.

Tips for better results

  • Test your prompt on a cheap model first, such as Runway or Grok Imagine Video. When the idea works, run it again on Veo 3.1, Seedance 2.5 or Kling 3.0.
  • Start at 720p and the shortest length. Move up to 1080p or 4K only for the final clip.
  • Use a reference image when the look must stay the same. Make one in the AI Image Generator first.
  • Write one action per prompt. Describe the subject, the movement, the camera and the light.
  • Pick a model with native sound if you need sound effects. Otherwise turn the sound off where the model has a switch, which costs less on Kling 3.0 and PixVerse V6.
  • Match the ratio to where you post: 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts, 16:9 for YouTube.

FAQ

Which model should I start with?

Veo 3.1 is the default and a safe choice. For cheap tests, use Runway or Grok Imagine Video. For a photo you want to animate, try Kling 3.0, Hailuo 2.3 or Vidu Q4.

What happens if a clip fails?

The credits go back to your balance automatically.

Can a free account make AI videos?

No. AI video needs purchased credits or invite credits. A free account can make videos with AI video templates, which free check-in credits can pay for.

Who owns the clips?

You can use the videos you create, subject to the terms of service and the usage policy of the model you chose. You keep all rights to the images you upload.

Can I make videos longer than 16 seconds?

One clip is 3 to 16 seconds. For a longer video, make several clips and cut them together in the AI B-Roll Editor with a script, a voice and captions.

Can I download the clip?

Yes. Every clip is saved in My Works, where you can download, share, view or delete it. See the works, sharing and billing guide.
