A crane shot on a game show set starts with a camera direction. Open the scene, work on the prompt with Milo and check the quote before you generate.
Start with the shot you have in mind and the references you can bring.
Set the length, resolution and audio. The price updates on Generate.
Go ahead when the shot and its quote look right.
A finished render uses credits. A technical failure with no output is credited back or left uncharged.
Describe what you want in your own words. Milo helps write a prompt for your selected model and references. Sign in to chat; Lite has no extra assistance fee.
Talk through the brief, plan the scenes and review each generation quote. Standard and Max use the same Milo assistance credits across Studio and the generators.

Use MaxVideoAI to compare FLUX 3 Max, MiniMax H3, Kling 4.0, Seedance 2.5, LTX 2.5, Wan 3, Google Veo and other models with pay-as-you-go credits instead of a recurring plan.
MaxVideoAI shows the estimated generation price before you launch a render, including model, duration, resolution, and audio choices.
Start with your task: text-to-video, image-to-video or a supported video-input workflow. Compare suitable models using examples and the same settings, then review the exact quote before generating.
Model choices
Choose around your source material, the movement and the sound you need.
These contact sheets show three moments from each film. Open a model to see how to direct your own scene.
Try the same idea with suitable models and compare the results. A model name or a lower price alone cannot tell you which shot you will prefer.
Pay-as-you-go means you buy credits when you need them instead of paying for a recurring plan. For each video, you choose a model, duration, resolution, audio option, and workflow. MaxVideoAI shows the estimated price before you launch the generation.
Creators, agencies, SaaS teams, ecommerce brands, marketers, and studios use credits when AI video generation is project-based instead of monthly.
Starting from a creative brief? Compare suitable models and review the budget before a connected generation.
The app quote combines the choices that actually affect render cost, so the price you approve matches the generation you launch.
Premium engines and fast variants can price differently.
Longer clips consume more credits than short drafts.
1080p, 4K, and high-quality outputs change the quote.
These examples help you estimate cost quickly. Use the pricing page for the full model-by-model matrix, then open the app for the exact live quote before rendering.
| Model | Best for | 5s 720p | 8s 1080p | 10s 1080p | Links |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
LTX 2.5 Pro ltx | efficient drafts, prompt iteration, and strong budget-aware output | —min 6s | Example : $1.77 |
Quick price checks
Use these model-specific shortcuts for quick estimates. The full pricing matrix stays the source of truth for exact model, duration, resolution, and audio combinations.
These examples are shortcuts from the current pricing hub. They are useful for orientation, while the app quote is the final price before generation.
Opens this model with your app settings, which may differ from this example. Match duration, resolution and audio, then check the exact quote before generating.
A completed render uses credits, even if you want to try another creative direction. A technical failure returns credits to your wallet.
Each completed generation uses credits. A completed result that does not meet your creative expectations is different from a technical failure. Failed generations are automatically recredited. A wallet recredit is not a card or bank refund. For a payment refund or an unused purchased balance, request a review under the refund policy. Each new attempt needs its own current quote.
No. MaxVideoAI supports pay-as-you-go credits so you can generate when you need video output.
Yes. The app shows a live quote before generation based on model, duration, resolution, audio, and workflow settings.
Start with your task: text-to-video, image-to-video or a supported video-input workflow. Compare suitable models using examples and the same settings, then review the exact quote before generating.
MaxVideoAI groups FLUX 3 Max, MiniMax H3, Kling 4.0, Seedance 2.5, LTX 2.5, Wan 3, Google Veo and other engines in one workspace so you can compare workflows, limits, and price before choosing.
A good pay-as-you-go setup lets you test current models, see prices before generation, switch engines per project, and avoid charges for failed provider renders.
AI video models change quickly. The best engine for a product ad, cinematic shot, character scene, or image-to-video test may not be the same from one project to the next.
A subscription can make sense if you generate large volumes every week on the same platform. Pay-as-you-go fits changing usage, model comparison, and avoiding idle monthly spend.
No subscription required
The right billing model depends on how often you generate, how many models you need to test, and whether unused monthly credits create waste.
| Decision point | MaxVideoAI pay-as-you-go | Typical subscription |
|---|---|---|
| Budget control | Add credits when you need videos and stop when the project is done. | Pay a recurring plan even in months where you do not render. |
| Model choice | Compare FLUX 3 Max, MiniMax H3, Kling 4.0, Seedance 2.5, LTX 2.5, Wan 3, Google Veo and other engines per job. | Often tied to one vendor, one model family, or one usage pool. |
| Price visibility | Review the quote before each generation starts. | Included credits can hide the real cost of premium settings. |
| Experimentation | Run small tests before scaling a campaign, client project, or production workflow. | A plan decision usually happens before you know which model fits. |
Audio, image references, video inputs, and tool routes can affect cost.

This is a budget illustration, not a promise that three attempts will produce the result you want. Media credits used are separate from the minimum top-up, which starts at $10. Changed settings or prices require a new quote.
Using Milo in a generator or Studio? Standard and Max share included and purchased assistance credits. Media generation has its own quote. Review both when planning your budget.
