InVideo AI Credits: Full Pricing Guide for Basic, Pro & Max Plans
InVideo AI is one of the most popular platforms for creating AI videos without manual editing. But its credit system is more complex than most tools: cost depends not just on video duration, but also on the generation model and whether you use a human avatar (AI Twin).
The InVideo AI credit formula
InVideo charges per minute of generated video — not per second like Kling AI. There's also a minimum billing unit: even if your video is 30 seconds long, you're charged for 1 full minute.
The official formula:
Credits = (model_credits × minutes) + (20 × avatar_minutes)
Model credits by Autopilot mode: - Basic: 2 credits/minute - Pro: 80 credits/minute - Ultra: 160 credits/minute
Adding a human avatar (AI Twin): +20 credits/minute on top.
Credits consumed per video type
| Video type | Credits |
|---|---|
| 1 min, Pro mode, no avatar | 80 credits |
| 1 min, Pro mode, with avatar | 100 credits |
| 3 min, Pro mode, with avatar | 300 credits |
| 30 seconds (billed as 1 min), Pro mode | 80 credits |
The real cost with retakes
With a ×2 retake factor (standard for content production):
- 1 min Pro without avatar: 80 cr × 2 = 160 credits real cost
- 1 min Pro with avatar: 100 cr × 2 = 200 credits real cost
Plans
| Plan | Price/month | Credits included |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | $20/month | 2,000 credits |
| Pro | $25/month | Moderate use |
| Max | $30/month | 320 credits |
Strategies to reduce credit consumption
Use your own B-roll assets. When you upload your own videos or images as supporting material, InVideo doesn't need to generate them, saving generative credits.
Only activate the avatar for necessary segments. If your 3-minute video only needs an avatar in the intro and outro (30 seconds each), activate it only for those sections.
Finalize the script before generating. Every regeneration with script changes costs the same as a new generation. The more polished the text before launching generation, the fewer iterations you'll need.
InVideo AI vs other avatar video tools
| Tool | Cost per 1 min video with avatar | Avatar realism |
|---|---|---|
| InVideo AI Pro | ~$1.00 | High |
| HeyGen | ~$1.50–$2.50 | Very high |
| Synthesia | ~$1.80 | Very high |
InVideo AI offers the lowest cost per minute among avatar platforms with acceptable quality.
