Video Cost Notes
In OpenArt's video creation studio, default 5-second video generations consume credits based on the chosen model architecture:
- Seedance 2.0 (720p 5s): ~20 credits per generation (theoretically up to 2 videos using trial credits).
- Kling 2.6 (720p 5s): ~30 credits per generation (1 video using trial credits).
- Seedance 2.5 (720p 5s with Sound): ~80 credits per generation (requires paid subscription or credit pack).
Because advanced video models require 20 to 80 credits per generation, the 10 daily free credits are primarily suitable for image creation, while the 40 trial credits allow 1 to 2 initial video experiments.
Data Notes
