Credits are used only when you ask the Assistant to work or start a new render.
Longer conversations, more AI steps, and extra revisions use more credits. Work already performed is charged even if you stop a request.
How many credits do I get for free?
Every new account receives 30 one-time credits. They do not renew, but they also do not expire.
Do monthly plan credits roll over?
No. Starter, Pro, and Studio credits reset to the plan allowance each billing cycle. Unused monthly credits do not carry into the next cycle. Your one-time free credits do not expire.
Do higher plans unlock different features?
No. Every plan uses the same video editor, storyboard, AI Assistant, media generation, and rendering. Plans differ by credit allowance, and higher plans include bonus credits for a lower price per credit.
Why does AI editing usage vary?
Conversation length, the number of AI steps, revisions, and generated assets affect usage. Generated media uses its provider’s pricing. Work already performed can be charged even if you stop the request.
Does rendering use credits?
Yes. Video rendering is charged for render compute time. Manual editing and preview playback are free, and downloading a completed result does not start another render.
