How many credits does an AI kiss take?
Every action in the studio has a fixed credit price, so you can work out what a finished kiss clip costs before you spend anything. This guide turns the price list into per-clip numbers, shows how retries change the math, and explains why the 90-day validity window matters more than the per-credit discount.
The price list in one place
Credits are charged per generation, and the amount depends only on what you ask for. The scene you pick, the frame shape and the photos you upload do not change the price. There are three kinds of generation:
- Kiss photo: 5 credits. Two solo photos or one couple photo become a still kiss in the scene you chose.
- Kiss video: 25 credits. The same inputs, built into a scene still and animated into a clip of roughly 5 to 7 seconds in one run. This is the only video option.
- Love Generator: 5 credits for a romantic still created from a written description, with no photos uploaded.
- Turning a finished kiss photo into a video means downloading it and uploading it to Kiss video as a single photo. That is a new 25-credit run, and the scene is rebuilt, so the clip will not match the original still exactly.
Cost per keeper, not cost per click
Results vary from run to run, so the honest number is what it costs to end up with one clip you would actually save. Estimate it by multiplying the task price by the attempts you expect. With clear photos and a scene that suits them, one or two attempts is common. An unusual pairing or a demanding scene can take three or more. Planning for that up front keeps one disappointing result from feeling like wasted money.
- Optimistic plan: 25 credits per finished video, from a single run.
- Realistic plan: a 5-credit kiss photo to check the pairing, then a 25-credit video with the same inputs, about 30 credits per finished clip.
- Cautious plan: two previews and two video runs, about 60 credits for a scene you really care about.
What each pack covers
There are three one-time packs. Dividing price by credits gives the cost per credit, and from there the cost of each task. Bigger packs are cheaper per credit, but the gap is smaller than it looks: between the smallest and the largest pack, a video run differs by roughly 28 cents.
- $4.99 for 125 credits, about 4 cents per credit: 5 kiss videos at roughly $1 each, or 25 kiss photos, or a mix such as 4 videos and 5 photos.
- $19.99 for 600 credits, about 3.3 cents per credit: 24 kiss videos at roughly 83 cents each, or 120 kiss photos, or a mix such as 22 videos and 10 photos.
- $99.99 for 3,500 credits, about 2.9 cents per credit: 140 kiss videos at roughly 71 cents each, or 700 kiss photos.
The 90-day clock is the real constraint
Purchased credits stay valid for 90 days, which turns pack choice into a question of pace rather than price. The 3,500-credit pack equals 140 video runs, so finishing it in time means more than ten runs a week. If you are making a handful of clips for an anniversary or a one-off surprise, the smallest pack wastes nothing, even though each credit costs a little more.
- Count the clips you plan to make in the next three months, add a retry allowance, then pick the smallest pack that covers the total.
- A few scenes for one occasion: 125 credits is usually enough.
- Regular experimenting with several photo pairs and scenes: 600 credits leaves room to retry without rationing.
- Steady, high volume week after week: only then does 3,500 make sense.
Habits that quietly burn credits
Most overspending comes from how people work rather than from the prices themselves.
- Running full video jobs just to find out whether two photos work together, when a 5-credit still answers the same question.
- Repeating the same scene with the same photos after two misses instead of changing one input.
- Buying the largest pack for its per-credit discount and letting part of it expire.
- Forgetting that results are deleted after 7 days, then paying again to recreate a clip you already had.
