Draft with Seedance 2.5

Iterate on a cheap model
Explore with MiniMax H3 Max Fast (40 credits per 5 s) or Seedance 2.0 Mini, then switch to a premium model for the shot you keep.
Approve frames first
A 16-credit start frame is the cheapest place to fix composition, product and character before any video is rendered.
Render several scenes at once
MiniMax H3 Max renders up to 15 seconds with several scene cuts in one generation, often cheaper than separate premium clips.

With Creative Claw, a 5-second AI video clip costs from 40 credits ($0.40) with MiniMax H3 Max Fast to 400 credits ($4.00) with Veo 3.1. Gemini Omni Flash, the default, is 130 credits ($1.30) for 5 seconds at 720p or 1080p. Finished pieces cost more because they combine clips, images, voiceover and captions: our 15-second product ad cost 461 credits ($4.61).
It depends on the model and how many shots it has. One 15-second multi-scene MiniMax H3 Max clip costs 240 credits ($2.40) at 768p or 480 credits ($4.80) at 1080p. Three 5-second Gemini Omni Flash shots cost 390 credits ($3.90). Our finished 15-second product ad with voiceover and captions cost 461 credits ($4.61), and our four-scene 15-second film cost 569 credits ($5.69).
About 24 credits per second at 480p, 53 at 720p, and 131 at 1080p, so a 5-second clip is 119, 267 or 657 credits ($1.19, $2.67 or $6.57). Using 480p drafts to test takes before rendering one at 1080p usually costs less than rendering every take at 1080p.
A draft is a usable 480p Seedance 2.5 video, billed at the 480p rate (119 credits for 5 seconds). If the take works, you can render the same take at 1080p within seven days as a separate 657-credit job. Testing three takes as drafts and finalizing one costs 1,014 credits; rendering all three at 1080p costs 1,971.
Draft with MiniMax H3 Max Fast (40 credits for 5 seconds at 768p) or Seedance 2.0 Mini (39 credits at 480p), then render only the approved shot with a premium model. For Seedance 2.5, preview takes as 480p drafts and finalize the best one.
Very little. ElevenLabs v3 costs 20 credits per 1,000 characters, so a 15-second voiceover is about 4 credits ($0.04). Captions are 6 credits per minute of video.
