How credits work

One credit is one minute of video you clip. Credits reset when your plan renews.

Updated 8 October 2026 · 1 min read

You use credits when you make clips. One credit covers one minute of the video you send, rounded up. A 42-minute video uses 42 credits, and the smallest job uses 1.

When credits reset#

Your credits go back to your plan’s amount each time it renews. Unused credits don’t carry over.

Ways to use fewer credits#

  • Set a Processing timeframe to clip only part of the video.
  • Trim long intros or breaks before you upload.
Do I get credits back if a job fails?
Yes. If a job fails or finds no clips, we return the credits automatically.
Can I buy extra credits?
Not as a one-off. Move to a bigger plan on Plans and pricing. You get the new amount at the start of your new plan.
Do editing or downloading use credits?
Downloading and exporting are free. AI B-roll in the editor is free for your first 3 clips, then uses credits. The editor shows the cost before you add it.
