How Pricing Works for Truepix AI Agents

Welcome to Truepix AI Agents, where generating a complete video is as simple as providing an idea. To ensure you have a clear and predictable experience, we use a straightforward credit-based system. While image generation has a fixed cost, video generation is more dynamic. This guide will walk you through exactly how our pricing works, so you can create amazing content while keeping costs in check.

The Basics: A Flexible Credit-Based System

Every task you perform with Truepix AI Agents, from creating visuals for your ADS AGENTS campaign to rendering a cosmic journey with the SPACE Agent, is paid for using credits. This system provides flexibility and transparency.

Please note that for every Agent task you initiate, there is an upfront charge of 20 credits. This initial fee covers the preliminary work performed by the Agent, such as research, scriptwriting, and overall task setup, before any visual content is generated. Still images generated after this have a fixed cost of just 10 credits per image.

Video Pricing Explained: The Credits-Per-Second Model

The power of Agents lies in video creation, and the cost is directly tied to the video model you select in the Agent's user interface. Each model has a specific price listed in 'credits per second' (credits/sec). The calculation is simple: the duration of the generated video clip in seconds is multiplied by the model's per-second credit cost. For example, if you choose a model that costs 22 credits/sec and it generates a 5-second clip, the total cost for that clip will be 5 seconds * 22 credits/sec, which equals 110 credits.

To give you a real-world example, take a look at this space exploration video generated by our SPACE Agent: The Sun is Vanishing... The entire video was created using the KLING PRO model and the total cost for its generation was approximately 990 credits. This demonstrates how a complete, high-quality video can be produced at a transparent and predictable cost.

CRITICAL RULE: Understanding Fixed Model Durations to Control Costs

This is the most important factor for managing your video generation costs. The final video produced by an Agent is assembled from multiple shorter clips. Crucially, each video model can only generate clips in specific, fixed durations (e.g., a model might only offer 5-second or 10-second outputs).

If the Agent's script requires an 8-second clip for a particular scene, but the video model you selected only produces clips in 5-second or 10-second lengths, the system must generate a 10-second clip to fulfill the request. In this scenario, you will be charged for the full 10-second duration, not the 8 seconds used in the final video. The cost is always based on the model's available duration, not the exact length of the clip needed in your final video.

How to Check Model Durations and Optimize Your Spend

To avoid surprises and make an informed decision, you must check the available durations for a video model *before* running your Agent. Here is the recommended workflow:

1. Navigate to the Image to Video section on the main Truepix AI platform.

2. From the model selection dropdown, choose the model you are considering for your Agent.

3. Once selected, the interface will display the available duration options for that specific model. This is the key information you need.

4. With this knowledge, return to the Truepix AI Agents interface and select a model whose fixed durations align best with your creative needs and budget. For maximum cost control, we generally recommend starting with models like SEEDANCE PRO or SEEDANCE LITE.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How are still images priced within Truepix AI Agents?

All still images generated by any Agent have a fixed price of 10 credits per image.

Why was I charged for a 10-second clip when my scene was only 8 seconds long?

You were charged for 10 seconds because the video model you selected generates clips in fixed durations (e.g., 5s, 10s). To create an 8-second scene, the system had to generate the next available length, which was 10 seconds, and the cost is based on that full generated duration.

Where can I see the available video durations for a model?

You can view the specific, fixed durations a model offers by navigating to the Image to Video section, selecting a model, and observing the duration options that appear.

Are there any recommended models for better cost management?

Yes, for users looking for greater control over costs, we suggest starting with the SEEDANCE PRO or SEEDANCE LITE video models.
