# How much does it cost to create a specific video?

Video generation costs vary significantly depending on the model and settings (length, resolution, count). (Google Veo 3 and lip sync video generation consume a lot of credits.) Due to the nature of AI generation, you may try multiple times until you get the desired result, so actual costs may vary.

### How to check costs

You can check the **credits deducted per generation** for each model before requesting it.

* **App**: \[Home(홈)] → Tap the \[Sparkle icon(반짝이 아이콘)] (✨) at the bottom-left of the chat → Select a model → View the per-generation credits on the detail screen.
* **Web**: Click the \[Sparkle icon(반짝이 아이콘)] (✨) at the bottom-left of the chat → Select a model → View the per-generation credits on the detail screen.

<Info>
  The credits shown are based on the default options. Setting a higher count, resolution, or video length than the default will deduct more credits.

To compare model usage across plans at a glance, see 'How much can you use in each plan?' on the [upgrade page](https://carat.im/en/upgrade).

### Maximum video length per generation

For current video models (Seedream, Kling, Google Veo, and so on), the **maximum length per generation is 15 seconds**.

### Cheapest way to generate a video

The most affordable option is the **Carat video feature (LTX model)**.

* **Free / Plus users:** **33 credits** deducted per generation.
* **Premium / Pro / Business users:** **Unlimited use with no credits deduction** during your subscription period.

<Note>
  Unlimited applies to video generation itself. Chatting with the agent still uses credits (chat runs separately from generation). If you run low on credits, use \[Agent 1.0(에이전트 1.0)] (Web: carat.im/?tab=v1, App: \[Home(홈)] then \[Menu(메뉴)] (☰) at the top left, then \[Agent 2.0(에이전트 2.0)], then \[Agent 1.0(에이전트 1.0)]) or recharge. For the full scope, see [Unlimited benefit scope](/en/troubleshooting/usage-plan/unlimited-benefit-scope).
</Note>

### Recommendations

1. We recommend testing as a free user first.
2. If you're not satisfied, upgrade to the Plus plan (\$22) to generate more seriously.
3. If you need more credits, consider Boost recharge or the Pro plan.
