How video costs actually work
When you generate a video, we pay providers (Runway, Sora, Kling) per second of output. A typical 10-second video costs us $0.50–$1.20 to render. We’re transparent about this:
- Check /dashboard/usage to see raw provider cost for your workspace this month.
- See /pricing for per-generation estimate breakdown by quality tier.
- When a provider is rate-limited or out of credits, you see the real error message.
