## Rules of thumb

- A standard 30-second video generates one media clip per ~4 seconds (≈8 clips) plus voice (~70 words ≈ 10 credits). With Pro moving images that's ≈ 40–50 credits; with Low AI video ≈ 130 credits; with Veo3 ≈ 800 credits.
- Prompt-to-Video estimates clips, sound effects, and voice from the target duration and adds a 10% safety margin.
- The UI always shows "Estimated cost" next to the Generate button; the API/CLI/MCP expose `calculate-credits` / `revid credits` / `calculate_credits` for the same estimate.
