Understanding AI Video Generation Credits and Transparent Pricing

Understanding AI Video Generation Credits and Transparent Pricing

The Direct Answer

TinyMotion operates on a transparent prepaid credit model with zero mandatory monthly subscriptions. Credits cost as low as ₹299 for 100 credits. Every creation flow shows a live quote before you hit generate: you see the exact credits required, your current balance, and your balance after reservation. Credits are held during generation and captured only on success.

Why Transparent Pricing Matters

Many AI generation tools charge opaque recurring subscriptions or quietly burn credits on failed jobs. TinyMotion enforces ledger-grade accounting:

  • Reservation, Not Spend: Credits are reserved while your job runs in the worker queue.
  • Automatic Release on Failure: If an external GPU provider times out or fails, your reserved credits are automatically restored to your wallet.
  • Indian Rupee (INR) Value: Starter packs begin at ₹299, payable via UPI, Rupay, and Indian credit/debit cards via Dodo Payments.

Tips to Maximize Credit Value

  1. Start with 5-second previews before generating 10-second master cuts.
  2. Use prompt enhancer suggestions to avoid retries.
  3. Check template previews to ensure motion alignment before submitting.
