#How many credits does a 1 minute text to video use
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
There isn’t a single “per‑minute” credit rate for Text‑to‑Video on ElevenLabs. Video is billed per generation, and the credit cost depends on the model and the selected duration (clips are limited to short fixed lengths per model). Aspect ratio and resolution don’t change the credit cost; duration does. (elevenlabs.io)
Examples of current starting costs per generation:
- OpenAI Sora 2 Pro: starts at 12,000 credits per generation (fixed durations 4s, 8s, 12s). (elevenlabs.io)
- Google Veo 3 / 3.1 Fast: starts at 4,000 credits per generation (fixed durations 4s, 6s, 8s). (elevenlabs.io)
- Seedance 1 Pro: starts at 4,800 credits per generation (fixed durations 3–12s). (elevenlabs.io)
- Wan 2.5: starts at 2,500 credits per generation (fixed durations 5s, 10s). (elevenlabs.io)
To create a 1‑minute video, you’d need multiple generations (e.g., several 8–12s clips), and the total credits would be the sum of those generations for the model you choose. The exact credit cost is shown in the UI before you generate. (help.elevenlabs.io)
