We use a simple credit system to price every task. Instead of worrying about hourly rates or complex quotes, every deliverable has a fixed credit price.

Here is the complete breakdown of credit costs for our services.

1. Long-Form Video Edits

Best for: YouTube videos, Podcast episodes, Webinars, and Course content.

The cost of a long-form video depends on the final duration of the edited video (not the raw footage length). The longer the final video, the more credits it requires.

Final Video Length

Credit Cost

Under 10 minutes

5 Credits

10 – 20 minutes

8 Credits

20 – 30 minutes

10 Credits

Over 30 minutes

13 Credits

Note: If you are unsure of the final length, give your best estimate. We will adjust the credit deduction if the final cut lands in a different tier.

2. Short-Form Video Edits

Best for: TikToks, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Short-form content has a flat rate, regardless of complexity.

  • Cost: 2 Credits per video.

3. Add-ons (Upgrades)

Available only with Long-Form Video requests.

When submitting a Long-Form video request, you can add extra deliverables to get more value out of your content. These are available in the "Add-ons" section of the request form.

  • Custom Thumbnail: 1 Credit

    • We will design a high-CTR thumbnail tailored to your video’s title and style.

  • Repurposed Clip (Clip Extraction): 1 Credit per clip

    • We will identify a viral-worthy moment from your long video and turn it into a vertical short-form clip (Reel/TikTok).

    • Example: If you want 3 clips extracted from your podcast, it will cost 3 credits.
