Text or Image: Pick Your Starting Point
Every model family in this video AI generator accepts both kinds of input. The choice comes down to how much of the final look you already have in hand, and how much you want the model to invent.
Start from a photo
Image to video keeps the face, outfit, product or artwork you upload and adds motion on top. It is the safer route whenever the subject must stay recognizable: a portrait for a profile, a packshot for a store listing, a character you drew yourself. The prompt only has to cover the action and the camera, because the picture already settles everything else. The free daily clip uses this mode, and the image to video AI page goes deeper into which photos animate cleanly.
Start from a prompt
Text to video builds the whole frame from your words: the character, the location, the light and the lens. Reach for it when you need an establishing shot, some b-roll, a concept test or a scene you could never photograph. With nothing to anchor the look, put the subject first, then the action, setting, camera and style, and plan on two or three versions. For prompt formulas and worked examples, read our text to video AI guide.
Combine the two
Plenty of people working as an AI video creator design a still in an image tool first, then bring it here to animate, since a fixed opening frame gives more control than words alone. Wan 3.0, MiniMax H3, Seedance 2.0, Veo 3.1 and Kling 3.0 also take a closing frame, so you can pin down where the shot starts and where it lands.
All Five Model Families Compared
AI video generation costs very different amounts depending on the model, and each family has its own strengths. The table lists what runs on this site today; the Lowest price column is the cheapest clip in that family.
| Family | Versions here | Clip length | Top resolution | Sound | Lowest price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kling | 2.5 Turbo, 2.6 and 3.0 | 3 to 15 s on 3.0; 5 or 10 s on the others | 4K with 3.0 | Optional with 3.0 | 19 credits |
| Veo | 3.1 in Lite, Fast and Quality tiers | 4, 6 or 8 s | Up to 4K with Fast or Quality | In every clip | 65 credits |
| Seedance | Five versions, from 1.0 Pro Fast up to 2.5 | 4 to 30 s on 2.5; 4 to 15 s on 2.0 | 4K with 2.0 | Yes on 2.x; none on 1.0 Pro Fast | 6 credits |
| Hailuo | Hailuo 2.3 Fast, 2.3 and MiniMax H3 | 5 to 15 s on H3; 6 or 10 s on 2.3 | 2K with H3 | Yes on H3; none on 2.3 | 15 credits |
| Wan | 3.0 | 2 to 30 s | 1080p | On by default | 59 credits |
In one sentence each:
- Kuaishou's flagship handles multi-shot sequences, cutting between angles inside one generation, and sound is a switch you turn on; the Kling 3.0 page compares it with 2.6 and 2.5 Turbo.
- Google's model generates audio with every clip and follows your photo's orientation; the Veo 3.1 page explains when Lite, Fast or Quality is worth it.
- ByteDance's line spans the cheapest draft on the site to 30-second clips with sound; the Seedance 2.0 page sorts out all five versions.
- MiniMax H3 is the low-cost way to get sound and 2K, and it powers our kiss, hug and dance presets; the MiniMax video page sets it against Hailuo 2.3.
- Alibaba's newest release runs from 2 to 30 seconds with audio on by default; the Wan 3.0 page covers lengths and settings.
How to Choose a Model for the Job
Start from what the clip is for, not from a favorite brand. These situations cover most requests:
- Ten prompt ideas, one afternoon. Draft them all at 480p with Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast for 6 credits each, 60 in total, then rerun the two strongest on a better model. The drafts are silent, which doesn't matter at this stage.
- A shot that should arrive with sound. Veo 3.1 always generates audio. MiniMax H3, the Seedance 2.x versions, Wan 3.0 and Kling 3.0 with sound switched on do too. You can't pick a specific song, so add licensed music in your editor if you need one.
- A scene longer than 15 seconds. Wan 3.0 and Seedance 2.5 each go to 30 seconds in a single generation, which saves stitching shorter clips together.
- Several camera angles in one take. Kling 3.0's multi-shot mode cuts between framings inside one clip.
- A product shot for a paid campaign. Use a plan or credit pack for clean files and a commercial license, then render at 4K on Seedance 2.0, Kling 3.0 or Veo 3.1 (Fast or Quality), or at 2K on MiniMax H3.
- A kiss, a hug or a dance from one photo. Skip the prompt and use a ready-made preset, such as the AI dance video generator, or the AI baby video generator for a toddler's first dance routine.
Pricing per Clip, Counted in Credits
Every clip has a fixed price in credits, set by the model, the resolution and the length. The number appears on the generate button before you commit, and a render that fails returns its credits automatically. A few reference points:
| Clip | Credits | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast · 480p · 5 s | 6 | Silent drafts |
| MiniMax H3 · 480p · 5 s | 15 | Presets and cheap tests with sound |
| Kling 2.5 Turbo · 5 s · 720p | 19 | Budget motion, no audio |
| Kling 3.0 · 720p · 5 s | 42 | The everyday default |
| Veo 3.1 Lite · 720p · 8 s | 65 | Veo with sound at its lowest price |
| Kling 3.0 with sound · 5 s · 1080p | 84 | Polished social clips (paid) |
| Seedance 2.5 · 720p · 5 s | 183 | The newest Seedance with audio |
| Veo 3.1 Quality · 1080p · 8 s | 538 | Top-tier Veo (paid) |
On a subscription, $9.99 a month buys 500 credits (Starter), $29.99 buys 1,500 (Pro) and $79.99 buys 4,000 (Max); yearly billing takes 20% off. Counted in 5-second Kling 3.0 clips at 720p, that is about 11 clips on Starter, 35 on Pro and 95 on Max. One-off packs cost $9.99 for 400 credits, $29.99 for 1,200 and $69.99 for 2,800, and each stays valid for 12 months. The full breakdown sits on the plans and credits page.
To be straight about it: Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 are near the top of our price list, and some other platforms sell those two models for less. Kling, Veo 3.1 Fast and MiniMax H3 are where this site is most competitive.
Free AI Video Generator Access: What You Get
You can start with no account and no card. Each level adds a little more:
| No account | Free account | Plan or credit pack | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Allowance | One clip a day | 30 credits at sign-up, valid 30 days, plus 5 a day | Monthly plan credits or a one-off pack |
| Input | Photo only | Photo or text | Photo or text |
| Models | Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast only | Everything but Veo 3.1 Quality | Every model |
| Resolution | 480p, 5 s | 720p at most (Hailuo 2.3 runs at 768p) | 1080p to 4K, model permitting |
| Watermark | Yes | Yes | No |
Used as a free AI video maker, the site is best for testing ideas. The signup credits buy, for example, two MiniMax H3 clips at 480p, or one Kling 2.5 Turbo clip plus a Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast draft; a Wan 3.0 or Kling 3.0 clip at 720p costs more than the full bonus. The 5 daily credits renew 24 hours after the last batch and never accumulate, and because the cheapest clip is 6, they need other credits beside them to pay for anything. Paying removes the watermark, unlocks higher resolutions, runs 3 jobs at once, keeps files for 180 days instead of 7, and adds a commercial license that stays attached to anything made while your plan or pack was active.
A Credit-Saving Workflow for AI Generated Video
Most wasted credits come from rendering a big, expensive clip before the prompt is right. This order avoids that:
- Write the prompt or upload the photo, then generate a 6-credit draft on Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast.
- Change one thing at a time, such as the action, the camera or the mood, until the draft moves the way you want.
- Switch to the model that suits the job and render at 720p.
- Only when that version works, go to 1080p or above on a paid plan.
- Download the file. Free accounts keep files for 7 days, so save anything you want to keep.
What This AI Video Maker Can't Do
It helps to know the gaps before you spend anything:
- No talking or lip sync. Models here add sound to a clip, but none of them can make a person in your photo say a script.
- No Sora. OpenAI shut Sora down in 2026, so it isn't on the menu here.
- No in-house model. ImageVideoAI runs models from Kuaishou, Google, ByteDance, MiniMax and Alibaba through their APIs; it doesn't train its own.
- No editing suite. There is no timeline, no video-to-video restyling and no clip extension. Each generation is a new, short clip.
If any of these is a dealbreaker, the guide to the best AI video generators covers tools built for editing and lip sync, and the best image to video AI list compares photo animation tools side by side, ours included.
Questions About Making Videos Here
Is there an AI video generator free no sign up?
Yes, once a day. Upload a photo and describe the motion, and you get one 5-second clip at 480p with a watermark, made by Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast, with no account. Writing from text alone and choosing other models both need a free account, which brings 30 credits that expire after 30 days, topped up by 5 a day.
How does this compare with other free AI video generators 2026 has to offer?
Free plans across the market tend to be small and watermarked, and this one is no exception: one guest clip a day, then credits on a free account. What it adds is access to five model families from the same balance, with each price shown up front. Our roundup of video tools compares other free tiers in detail, with dates on every figure.
Can I use AI generated video commercially?
Yes, if it was generated while you had a paid plan or an active credit pack. Those clips come without a watermark and keep their commercial license even after the plan ends. Clips made on a free account or as a guest are watermarked and meant for personal use, such as trying ideas before you buy.
Which model should I start with?
Start cheap. A 5-second Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast draft is 6 credits, which makes it ideal for getting a prompt right. Once the motion looks good, move to Kling 3.0 for general work, Veo 3.1 when you want sound in every clip, or Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 for clips up to 30 seconds.
Do the videos include sound?
That depends on which model you pick. Veo 3.1 adds audio to every clip, and MiniMax H3, Seedance 2.0 and 2.5, Wan 3.0 and Kling 3.0 with sound switched on also generate it with the picture. Clips from Kling 2.5 Turbo, from Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast and from either Hailuo 2.3 version are silent. Pick a model with sound if your platform plays videos with audio on.
What happens if a generation fails?
You get every credit back automatically, with nothing to request. The cost is shown on the button before you start, so the only time credits leave your balance is when a clip is delivered. Your photos and prompts are never used to train AI models; they go to the model provider only to make your video.
