Every action in Aytada has a fixed credit cost — what you see in the studio is exactly what is deducted from your balance. Strategy, ideation, and scene planning are always free. Credits are only deducted for rendered assets, and only when generation succeeds.

Credits are deducted atomically at the moment of generation — not before, and not after. If a generation fails, no credits are charged.

Typical full video ad costs

Your total cost depends on the ad length (number of scenes) and the video quality tier you choose.
Ad lengthQualityScenesTypical total
ShortStandard3~55 credits
StandardStandard5~85 credits
StandardPro5~210 credits
ExtendedStandard7~115 credits
ExtendedPro7~295 credits
These estimates include video rendering per scene, one voiceover, one stitch, and one background music track. Script and scene breakdown costs are not included because they are charged separately (or are free on the first run).

How to estimate your project cost before you start

1

Choose your ad length

Decide whether you need a Short (3 scenes), Standard (5 scenes), or Extended (7 scenes) ad. More scenes mean more credits for video generation.
2

Choose your quality tier

Standard quality costs 15 credits per scene. Pro quality costs 40 credits per scene. For social media, Standard is often sufficient; choose Pro for YouTube or TV placements.
3

Calculate video generation cost

Multiply your scene count by the per-scene cost. For example, a Standard 5-scene ad at Standard quality is 5 × 15 = 75 credits for video alone.
4

Add fixed asset costs

Add 5 credits for voiceover, 5 for stitch, and 5 for background music if you want all three. That is 15 additional credits on top of video.
5

Add any static assets

If you also want an ad banner, add 4 credits. A social flyer adds 5. An audio jingle adds 5.
The studio shows you the exact credit cost before you click Generate. You will not be charged unless you confirm and your balance is sufficient.
If your credit balance is too low for a generation step, the Generate button is disabled automatically. Top up your balance on the credits page before continuing.
