How it works
Hookquill credits: what a video costs
Credits pay for AI work. Every action has a fixed price, printed on its button before you press it. A typical 10-minute video, from research to voiceover and titles, comes to about 124 credits, so Starter’s 1,200 credits a month cover about 9 such videos.
