How to estimate AI video generation costs

Start by selecting the model and API host you plan to use. Choose a generation mode, resolution, audio setting, and duration that match the provider’s endpoint. The quick calculator estimates one batch of videos; the project calculator estimates scene-based production, including attempts and an optional retry or production buffer.

Why the same model can have different prices

A model may be available through more than one API host, and each host can set its own rates, supported options, and billing units. RenderCents keeps those model and host combinations separate. The estimate uses the listed native unit—such as credits or seconds—and converts published USD rates to your selected currency when exchange rates are available.

Reading the estimate and source status

Only a rate with a listed source and verification date is used for a cost estimate. A dash or “Unavailable” means we could not confirm a price for that exact configuration; it does not mean the provider’s service is free. Estimates are planning aids. Actual charges may vary with provider billing rules, taxes, failed generations, plan discounts, and changes to published prices. Check the linked provider pricing page before purchasing or generating at scale.
