AI model index: real prices and generation times
What each AI video and image model actually costs per generation and how long it takes, measured on Kreavo rather than copied from marketing pages. Each price range covers every length and resolution the studio offers for that model, computed by the formula that bills the generation, at 1 credit = $0.01 (the smallest credit pack, 1,000 credits for $10; bigger packs and monthly plans cost the same or less per credit). Generation times are medians from request to finished video over the last 60 days, for the most-used version of each model, published only with at least 20 completed jobs; the sample size is shown.

How to read this index
- Price per video is the range across the model's variants (duration, resolution, mode). Price per second divides each variant's price by its clip length, useful to compare a 5s Kling clip with a 15s Seedance clip.
- Median generation time is the time from job creation to the finished file on Kreavo, including queueing, over the last 60 days. Providers that share a pipeline are grouped; families with fewer than 20 completed jobs show no time.
- Prices come from Kreavo's live credit table and change when providers change theirs; the index is rebuilt at every deploy.
