Cost is stated per setting
The balance, the estimate, and the generate action sit on one screen, so the cost of the current configuration is never hidden behind a second step.
USAGE AND LIMITS
Unlimited Image to Video: What Your Credit Balance Allows
There is no unlimited tier. This page explains how image to video usage is actually metered by Credits, plan gates, and the model settings you select.

Where the metering becomes visible
The preview is inert. Open Image to Video to see your own balance and the estimate for the settings currently published.
This preview never uploads, stores, or generates media.

Three mechanisms decide how much image to video capacity an account actually has.
Gates are enforced, not advertised
Premium controls only appear once a plan is active. Until then the form offers the durations and resolutions that Credits alone can cover.
Two ways to add capacity
Packs and plans are separate line items with their own amounts and expiry behaviour, so you can choose a one-off top-up instead of a recurring charge.
How the metering works
Metering is not a policy paragraph; it is a number shown on the form before you press generate.
Start from a real balance
Create an account so a Credit balance exists. Without one there is nothing to meter and no request can be accepted.
Choose the smallest viable run
Pick a model and the shortest duration it supports. The estimate updates with the configuration, so the cheapest working setup is visible immediately.
Spend once, reuse the setup
Submit only the brief you intend to keep, then reuse the setup from history when you want a variant instead of rebuilding it.
Working within a real balance
Three patterns that keep spending predictable while you iterate.
Draft short, finish once
Draft at the shortest duration, fix the motion, then re-run at the final setting once. Two cheap passes usually cost less than one ambitious guess.
Reuse a setup instead of rewriting
Save the prompts that worked in your history and reload the setup instead of retyping a brief that already produced a usable clip.
Prioritise shots before spending
Rank your shots before generating. Spreading a small balance across five half-finished ideas produces less usable output than finishing two.
The limits behind the phrase
These are the constraints that make an unlimited tier impossible to offer honestly.
No unlimited-use claim
The word describes a search pattern, not a product tier. Requests stop when the balance cannot cover the selected settings.
The catalog can change
The catalog, not the marketing page, decides which models and settings exist at any moment. A model can be added or withdrawn between sessions.
Concurrency is not free
Simultaneous long requests are bounded by the balance and by plan gates; opening several tabs does not create extra capacity.
Charges follow accepted requests
An accepted request is charged whether or not you like the result. Rejected or failed requests are handled by the product's own accounting, not by retrying blindly.
What usage limits mean in practice
What a Credit balance, a plan gate, and a one-time pack each mean in practice.
Is image to video actually unlimited?
No. Every request draws on a Credit balance, and a monthly plan changes which settings unlock rather than removing the balance.
What determines how many Credits a clip uses?
Each accepted request deducts the estimate shown on the generate action, which follows the model, duration, and resolution you chose. Cheaper settings exist in the catalog, and they cost fewer Credits.
Which settings need a subscription?
Clips longer than six seconds and resolutions from 1080p upward require an active monthly plan. Shorter, lower-resolution runs stay available on Credits alone.
Do Credit packs behave like a subscription?
One-time packs add Credits that do not expire, while a plan adds Credits each period and unlocks the premium controls. Both appear on the pricing page with their current amounts.
How do I avoid wasting Credits on a bad brief?
Test an idea at the shortest duration the model supports, settle the motion, then re-run the version you like at a higher setting. Reworking a prompt is free; only accepted requests are charged.
How long do my results last?
Without an active plan, completed results remain available for seven days. A plan removes that automatic expiry, so download or keep a plan before the window closes.
Understand the real ceiling before you create
See the current plan gates, the Credit cost per setting, and what a monthly plan changes before you commit to a longer clip.
