API questions before your first call
- At 720p, each second costs $0.23 and a minute comes to $14.04 (R$46.98, 785 credits). Each generation runs 1 to 16 seconds.
- Create an account, make a key and send the request to the quote, which charges nothing. The 15 free credits cover 1 seconds at 720p with Vidu Q3 Pro.
- Text only: the prompt describes everything. From an image: the image you send becomes the first frame. First and last frame: two images become the start and the end of the video.
- No. Buy a credit pack by card, or in reais with Pix from Brazil, and spend it on Vidu Q3 Pro and every other model with the same key.
- No. The Cut.Pro key calls Vidu Q3 Pro without a Vidu account, with one balance for every model in the catalog.
- Yes. With a CPF or CNPJ and full address in your billing details, the nota fiscal is issued after each payment is confirmed.
