The $50 Level: 26 AI Video Models in One Picker
Everything in the $25 level, plus the AI Video Generator: every leading model side by side with its price, seven ways to make a clip, and slideshow videos up to three minutes.
One Picker, Priced Before You Click
A tool built around a single model can only ever give you that model's look.
Kling, Veo, Seedance, Hailuo, Wan, Vidu and more.
- Every model carries a plain note on what it is best at.
- Its price per clip is shown before you generate anything.
- You switch models freely between one job and the next.
- A new model turns up in your list, not in a rival product.
- All of it runs on the same Fal.ai key the images use.
The spread on one clip is roughly fifteenfold.
Seven Ways to Make the Clip
Most video tools give you a prompt box and leave the rest to you. Here the mode is the first decision, and it is the one that decides how much work is still yours after you press the button.
Two of them are worth pausing on. Consistent Product and Consistent Person take reference photographs and hold that same bottle or that same face across every scene. AI video models normally invent a slightly different person in every clip, which is what makes most AI video obviously fake, and reference photos are the only reliable way to stop it.
Alongside any mode you can switch on Use Your Avatar, which takes the photographs of yourself saved in your brand kit and puts you in the video.
The Modes
- Text Prompt, when you know the shot already
- AI Producer, which reads your sales page
- Animate Images, for photos you already have
- Between 2 Images, for before and after
- Consistent Product, one item held throughout
- Consistent Person, one face held throughout
- AI Slideshow, a full length marketing video
AI Slideshow Is a Producer, Not a Generator
A generator hands you a clip and leaves the production to you. This hands the production to Claude or GPT.
It Reads What You Have
Point it at a web address and it reads the page. Hand it a PDF, a Word document, a text file, a YouTube video or an image and it reads that instead. Nothing has to be rewritten into a prompt first.
It Plans Every Scene
It decides what the video is about, breaks it into scenes, writes the shot and the narration for each one, times them to each other, picks the on screen line and places your logo. What comes back is a storyboard, not a clip.
You Can Edit Everything
Rewrite a scene's voiceover, regenerate its picture on a different model, or pin a scene to an exact number of seconds to hold on a price. The rest keep timing themselves to their own narration.
Named Options, Not Prompt Writing
You choose from lists. Each choice expands into paragraphs of instruction behind the scenes.
What Finishes the Video
- Subtitles: 22 styles, 16 effects, 14 fonts
- Your own saved voice, or a clone of it
- Music written to your video's real length
- Your logo, on nine kinds of surface
- Any of 74 languages, in the same voice
The Sync Is Measured
The voiceover renders through ElevenLabs with character level timestamps, so scene cuts land exactly where the narration moves on, and every subtitle appears the instant its first word is spoken and leaves when its last word ends. Numbers read out in full, dramatic pauses and fast reads all stay in step.
Language is chosen before the video is written rather than translated afterwards, so the narration, the words burned on the picture and the captions are all composed in that language together and the same voice speaks it. Change your mind later and one click moves the whole storyboard.
The in browser preview plays the storyboard with the real voiceover and the real music, balanced under the voice. It is a prediction of the finished file, not an approximation of it.
What the Video Half Costs to Run
Video is priced per second on your own key, roughly $0.16 to $2.36 for five seconds depending on the model, and voiceover starts around $5 a month if you want narration. A slideshow keeps most scenes as stills, so the money goes on the few that need to move. The full picture is in the piece on running costs.
