How to get the most out of 30 free credits
Signing up with a verified email or a Google account adds 30 credits, valid for 30 days. It is a fixed amount, and that is the point: enough to find out whether your photos and a scene work together, and to make one real video if they do.
How you get them
Create an account at /sign-up and verify your email, or sign in with Google. The 30 credits are added to new accounts and stay valid for 30 days. Everything runs in the browser, so there is no app to download. Each generation still has to follow the content policy, and you will be asked to confirm you are 18 or older before your first one.
Three ways to spend 30 credits
Every generation has a fixed price: 5 credits for a kiss photo and 25 for a kiss video. That leaves three sensible plans.
- Preview, then commit (5 + 25 = 30): make one still in the scene you want and, if it looks right, run the video. This uses every credit and ends with one clip of about 5 to 7 seconds.
- Scene sampler (6 x 5 = 30): make six stills, either one photo pair in six scenes or two pairs in three scenes each. No video, but you learn which combinations work before paying for anything.
- Straight to video (25, with 5 left): run the video right away and keep 5 credits for one still afterwards. It is the quickest route to motion, but if the first run misses, you have no video credits left.
Which plan suits you
If you already have strong photos and a clear idea of the scene, preview-then-commit is the safest way to finish the trial with a video. If you are unsure which photos to use, or you want to compare settings, the scene sampler gives you more information per credit. Going straight to video only makes sense when you want to see motion immediately and are comfortable risking a miss.
What the trial can and cannot tell you
Thirty credits is a small sample, and results vary between runs. A good first result is a strong sign that your photos suit the service. A weak one is less conclusive: it could be the photo, the scene or just that run. Before deciding the generator is not for you, check whether a sharper, more front-facing photo would help. The source photo guide at /learn/photos-that-work-for-ai-kiss covers what to look for.
When buying credits is worth it
A pack makes sense once you have something worth building on. Packs are one-time purchases with no subscription, and purchased credits last 90 days.
- You have a photo pair that works and want it in more scenes: $4.99 for 125 credits covers 5 more video runs, or 4 runs plus 5 stills.
- You want to explore many scenes and pairs: $19.99 for 600 credits gives 24 video runs, or a mix such as 22 videos and 10 stills.
- You keep getting poor results from the same photos: hold off. Change the photos first, because more credits will not fix a weak source.
