HeyGen Pricing: Cost per AI Video

Visit HeyGen ↗

Free allowance: HeyGen Free: 3 videos/month, commercial use: no.

Costs use monthly billing and full allowance utilization. A plan with no stated length cap is still priced; the note is “length cap not stated by vendor”. A rule with no per-second rate spends its units once per video, for credits, minutes or videos. Requested length above a stated plan or rule maximum cannot be made with that rule. Source-video rules are labeled per minute of source video and are not mixed into the finished-ad ranking. Unlimited plans need a requested volume in the calculator. Annual prices are monthly equivalents; payment may be due upfront. Pending also means no verified plan covers the volume.

Monthly prices from the default pricing view. Yearly card prices from the view after clicking Yearly. Avatar IV and Avatar V per-minute rates are the help-centre table, which says those rates match credit-based plans. Avatar III is not given one rate: one blog says 3 credits per minute of generated output, the help table says 4 for a video look and 7 for a photo look, and another pricing article says 4.
