How much does a Bad Times AI video cost?
The preview is free. A full 15-second video uses 100 credits in HD (720p) or 50 in Standard (480p), and the smallest pack covers one HD video. Packs are one-time payments with no subscription; the exact prices are on the pricing page.

Credits per video
- HD (720p): 100 credits. The default, sharp enough for TikTok and Reels.
- Standard (480p): 50 credits, the same 15 seconds at a lower resolution.
- Bigger packs cost less per video. Every pack and its price per HD video is on the pricing page.
What you don't pay for
- The preview: a picture of you at the lens and the first 4 seconds.
- A video that fails to generate: its credits go back to your balance automatically.
- A subscription: there isn't one, and credits never expire.
What isn't refunded
A video that generates but that you don't like uses its credits. That's why the preview comes first: check that your photo works before you unlock the full video.
Price: questions
Is HD worth it over Standard?
Yes, for posting: HD (720p) stays sharp when your face fills the screen at the end. Standard (480p) costs half and is fine for sending to friends.
Do credits expire?
No. Credits never expire and you can use them whenever you like.
See your preview before you spend anything.
