Pricing
We do not reprint prices. They change too often for that to be honest, and a number on our page with no date is worse than sending you to the source.
How we rated it
What it is
Generative video from text or images, with camera control and the ability to extend clips, aimed at short cinematic sequences.
Who it is for
Video makers and marketers needing short shots that would otherwise require a camera or a budget.
Where it is strongest
Short stylised clips — a few seconds of something impossible, a transition, an establishing shot nobody will study.
Where it falls short
Clips are short and consistency between them is poor, so assembling a scene is hard. Credits go quickly because most generations are discarded. And faces and hands still give it away.
Our verdict
Recommended for short pieces and exploration, like Runway. Treat credits as a materials cost, because you will re-roll more than you keep.
