AI video cost, after the retries

Know what a usable clip actually costs.

A credits converter tells you the price of clicking Generate. ClipCost tells you the cost of the clips you can really use—after failed generations, extra credits and discarded outputs.

The default uses Runway's Standard monthly plan and Gen-4.5 rate shown on its official pricing page on 2026-11-15. The generated / usable counts are a labeled hypothetical example. Replace everything with your own project data.

Free the calculation. Keep the project ledger.

The paid file is for repeated creative work: multiple projects, actual credit consumption, platform comparisons and portable records. It is not another subscription or a hosted account.

Questions before you calculate

Why not just use a free credits calculator?

A free converter is enough for a one-off budget. ClipCost Pro is for the part that happens next: recording actual credits, discarded outputs and usable clips across projects, then exporting that history. If you only need a one-off conversion, use the free demo above—there is no reason to buy.

Does it connect to Runway, Jimeng or Kling?

No. You enter the rates and actual credits shown by your platform. This avoids account credentials and brittle API dependencies, but it also means automatic platform sync is not included.

Where is my project data stored?

In your browser's localStorage on the device where you use the offline file. Clearing browser data or changing devices can remove access, so export a JSON backup. The online demo on this page does not save your inputs.

Will it reduce my AI generation bill?

It can show where retries and unusable clips cost money, but it cannot guarantee savings, better output quality, platform reimbursement or income. Those depend on your workflow and the platform.

What are the delivery and support boundaries?

Delivery is a digital HTML file through the payment provider once checkout is enabled. Support is asynchronous and limited to file damage, description mismatches and product usage. No phone support, remote setup, custom production, coaching or permanent-update promise.
