Pricing & Credits

Operation-Based Pricing

ReelVan uses a simple, operation-based credit system:

  • Pay as you go - Buy credits when you need them
  • Or subscribe - Save up to 93% with monthly/yearly plans
  • Credits never expire (PAYG only)
  • Subscription credits reset monthly - Fresh credits every month

How Credits Work

  • Standard Video: 10 seconds, 720p 30fps (typical AI video output)
  • Enhanced Output: 1080p 60fps
  • Minimum Unit: 5 seconds of video
  • Credit: ≈ $0.01 API cost
