How much does it cost to make a video with AI? Real prices in 2026
By the CreaVideosConIA team5 min
Quick answer
A short social video made with AI costs a few cents in model costs (US$0.21 measured for 60 seconds) and, as a customer, a few credits per video within a plan from US$19 a month. With an agency or a freelancer, the same video usually costs tens or hundreds of dollars and takes days.
The 4 ways to produce a social media video
- Agency: high quality and strategy, but expensive and slow (days per video)
- Freelancer: cheaper than an agency, depends on one person and their schedule
- Doing it yourself: free in money, expensive in time (2 to 4 hours per video)
- With AI: minutes per video, low and steady cost, with your approval before publishing
What the price includes on CreaVideosConIA
- Script (with research and sources if you ask)
- Images or your real photos, natural voice, music and sound effects
- Dynamic captions and native formats for each network
- Automatic quality check and a guaranteed price before producing
Why the price is predictable
Every call to an AI model is recorded with its cost. Before producing we show you the quote and reserve it; when it's done we charge the real cost, capped at the quote. If something fails on our side, only what was actually spent is charged, with no margin.
A monthly example for a small business
With the Creator plan (US$19 a month, 1,500 credits) a small business produces about 40 videos a month with open models: more than one a day. With the Pro plan (US$49 a month) it reaches about 160 and can produce in batches and publish automatically.

Create my videoFrequently asked questions
Are there hidden costs?
No. You see the price of each video before producing it and you're never charged more than the quote.
How do I pay?
By card, charged in Colombian pesos through Wompi (your bank converts the amount); in Colombia also with PSE or Nequi.
What if I don't like the video?
You edit it in plain language («make the logo bigger, lower the music») and only what changes is redone, for a fraction of the cost.
