Billing Rules
- Minimum charge: 5 seconds
- Per-second rate = (price per 5 seconds) ÷ 5
- Billed duration = video length in seconds (rounded up), with a 5-second minimum
- Total cost = billed duration × per-second rate (by output resolution)
How to Use
- Write your prompt.
- Upload an audio file (optional) for voice/music.
- Choose the video size (resolution/aspect).
- Select the video duration (e.g., 5s / 10s).
- Submit and wait for processing.
- Preview and download the result.
Note
Audio limits
- Formats:
wav
,mp3
- Length: 3–30 seconds
- File size: ≤ 15 MB
