Models and Pricing
What every model on ToonBee costs, and which one to reach for. Video is billed per second of output, so a clip scales with both its length and its size; images are billed per picture.
Footage comes from ByteDance and MiniMax; stills from Google and OpenAI. New accounts start with 100 credits, so you can watch the generator work before a card is involved.
Video: per second of output
Multiply by the length of the clip. A model shows a dash at a size it does not render.

Reference mode
Attaching a tray of stills, clips and audio for the prompt to cite is billed at its own flat rate, whichever size it renders.
| Model | Rate | Included files | Each file after |
|---|---|---|---|
| H3 Max | 40 credits/s | 4 | 20 credits |
Images: per picture
Stills are useful for storyboarding a sequence, locking a look before you spend credits on a clip, or producing thumbnails and covers.

Choosing a model
- Drafting a prompt. H3 Max Turbo at 480p is the cheapest second here (13 credits/s), and comes back in about 30 seconds. Work the prompt there, then re-render the keeper at the size you need.
- The largest frame. Seedance 2 Mini reaches 1080p and runs to 15 seconds, at 128 credits/s.
- Holding a subject steady. Upload a still as the first frame on any model. For a whole tray of reference material the prompt cites by name, use Seedance 2 Mini, H3 Max and ToonBee 1.0 — the only models here that read one.
- Sound. Seedance 2 Mini, H3 Max, H3 Max Turbo and ToonBee 1.0 render their own soundtrack in the same pass — no separate sound pass, and no switch to turn it off.
- Vertical for social. 9:16 is composed that way from the prompt rather than cropped down from a 16:9 render.
