Creatify pricing in 2026 starts at $39 a month for Starter with 100 credits ($19 a month billed yearly), and Pro starts at $99 a month for 300 credits ($49 billed yearly), with bigger Pro sizes up to $999 a month for 5,000 credits. There is a free plan with 10 credits a month and a watermark, and Enterprise is quoted by sales. A standard 30 second video ad uses 10 credits, so Starter makes about 10 such ads a month and Pro about 30, before regenerations.
Creatify is an AI ad generator. You paste a product URL or a script, pick an AI actor or a template, and it produces UGC-style video ads, product videos, and image ads, then helps you launch and track them. Pro adds a competitor ad tracker, Ad Clone to remake an ad from a URL, and a performance agent. The prices below come from the live Creatify pricing page with the yearly toggle and every Pro credit tier checked, and the credit costs come from the official Creatify help center and API billing docs, all read in October 2026.

Two details on that page are easy to miss. The banner says you save up to 50% on annual billing, and that is only true at the bottom: Starter and the first two Pro sizes are about half price yearly, but the 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 credit sizes save about 40%, 30%, and 20%. And the second stop on the Pro slider shows "500" until you select it, then charges $199 for 600 credits. The yearly totals above are the per-month price times twelve, because the page does not print a yearly total.
How much does Creatify cost?
Creatify costs $39 a month for Starter or $99 a month for Pro on monthly billing, and $19 or $49 a month billed yearly, which is $228 or $588 a year. Larger Pro sizes cost $199 to $999 a month for 600 to 5,000 credits. The free plan is $0 with 10 credits a month and watermarked exports. Enterprise pricing is quoted by sales.
Per credit, Starter is 39 cents on monthly billing and 19 cents yearly, and Pro 300 is 33 cents monthly and about 16 cents yearly. Moving up the Pro slider cuts the monthly price per credit to about 20 cents at 5,000 credits. On yearly billing it works the other way in the middle: because the discount shrinks, Pro 1,000 (about 18 cents a credit) and Pro 2,000 (about 17.5 cents) cost more per credit than Pro 300 or Pro 600 (about 16.5 cents), and even Pro 5,000 only gets down to 16 cents. A bigger yearly size is not automatically a better deal, so size the plan to the ads you actually ship.
How Creatify credits work and what an ad really costs
A Creatify credit is a unit of AI generation. You see the credit cost before you confirm each render. These are the rates in the official Creatify credit usage article:
| What you make | Credit cost | For a 30 second ad |
|---|---|---|
| Video ad, avatar video, or AI Shorts | 5 credits per 15 seconds, rounded up | 10 |
| Revision that re-runs the AI | 3 credits per 15 seconds (free on Pro and up if script, avatar, and voice stay the same) | 6 per revision on Starter |
| Product video from images | 1 credit per image | 1 per image you include |
| Aurora video model | 5 credits per 15 seconds | 10 |
| Google Veo 3 clip | Flat 10 credits for up to 8 seconds | About 40 for four 8 second clips |
| Agent, Ad Flow, Ad Clone | Variable, not known up front | Shown before you confirm |
Manual edits to an exported project are free: changing text, captions, trims, media, or layout and exporting again costs nothing. Anything that re-runs the AI (a new video, avatar, voice, or script) is a new generation and spends credits. That rule matters more than the plan price. A team that writes a tight script and edits by hand gets close to the arithmetic. A team that regenerates five versions of every hook spends three to five times as much per ad that actually runs.
In dollars, a 30 second standard ad costs about $3.90 on Starter monthly and $1.90 on Starter yearly, and about $3.30 on Pro 300 monthly and $1.63 yearly. A four-clip Veo 3 sequence is roughly four times that.
How many videos can you make with Creatify credits?
At 10 credits per 30 second ad, Starter's 100 credits make about 10 ads a month, or about 20 at 15 seconds. Pro 300 makes about 30, Pro 600 about 60, Pro 1,000 about 100, Pro 2,000 about 200, and Pro 5,000 about 500. Every AI regeneration and every premium-model clip lowers those numbers.
Two things stretch the allowance. Unused credits stay valid for 2 months, so a slow month carries into the next one, and the Pro cards on annual billing say the credits expire yearly. On the other side, Starter runs one generation at a time while Pro runs five in parallel, which is about speed, not volume, but it is the reason teams producing dozens of variations a week end up on Pro.
Is Creatify free?
Creatify has a free plan with 10 credits every month, enough for about 2 video ads of up to 15 seconds or 20 image ads, with 300 AI actors and 40 templates. Exports carry a watermark, so free ads are for testing, not for running. Free credits also do not carry over when you upgrade: the paid plan starts with its own allowance.
Do Creatify credits roll over?
Yes, for a while. Creatify says unused credits are valid for 2 months, so they carry into the next month and then expire. On annual Pro plans the credits are listed as expiring yearly. One catch for annual buyers: you cannot switch off an annual plan until you have fewer than 10 credits left, and Creatify states that payments are final and non-refundable.
How much is the Creatify API?
The Creatify API is priced separately from the app. API Starter is $99 a month for 500 API credits and API Pro is $299 a month for 2,000 API credits with five times the concurrency and a priority queue; Enterprise is custom. URL to video, avatar, and AI Shorts calls cost 5 credits per 30 seconds, so a 30 second API ad costs about 99 cents on API Starter and about 75 cents on API Pro. The app plans include MCP access on Pro, not the REST API.
What does a year of Creatify cost compared with a flat plan?
Here is the yearly cost of the common Creatify plans next to the VidUp plans, for buyers whose ads and product videos are narrated over footage rather than spoken by an AI actor.
| Plan | Cost a year (billed yearly) | What the year buys |
|---|---|---|
| Creatify Starter | $228 | 1,200 credits: about 120 thirty-second ads, 1 seat |
| Creatify Pro 300 | $588 | 3,600 credits: about 360 thirty-second ads, 2 seats included |
| Creatify Pro 600 | $1,188 | 7,200 credits: about 720 thirty-second ads |
| VidUp Starter | $288 | 30 finished videos a month (360 a year) with stock footage, voiceover, captions, and music, no credits |
| VidUp Growth | $588 | 75 videos a month (900 a year), premium voices, 2 seats |
| VidUp Pro | $1,188 | 200 videos a month (2,400 a year), 4K, multiple brand kits, 3 seats, API with signed webhooks |
Read that honestly. If your ads need a person on screen talking to the camera, Creatify does that with AI actors and VidUp does not, so the comparison stops there. Creatify Starter is also cheaper than VidUp Starter if you only need about ten ads a month. Where VidUp wins is the faceless format, an ad or product video narrated over footage that fits each line: at the same $588 a year, VidUp Growth makes 900 finished videos against about 360 on Creatify Pro 300, and every one of them comes out in 9:16, 1:1, and 16:9 from a single render without spending anything on a regeneration.
Which Creatify plan should you buy?
Buy Starter if you are a solo founder or a small store testing a handful of avatar ads a month. At $19 a month billed yearly it is a cheap way to find out whether UGC-style AI ads work for your product, as long as you stay under about ten 30 second ads.
Buy Pro 300 or Pro 600 if you run paid social every week and want competitor ad tracking, Ad Clone, parallel generations, and a second seat. Size it from your real volume: count the ads you shipped last month, multiply by 10 credits, and add a margin for the hooks you regenerate. Free revisions on Pro (when the script, avatar, and voice stay the same) make it noticeably cheaper per finished ad than Starter for iterative teams.
Skip the big Pro sizes on yearly billing unless you are sure of the volume. The yearly discount shrinks to about 20% at 5,000 credits, payments are non-refundable, and you cannot leave an annual plan until your balance is under 10 credits.
When a flat text-to-video plan is the better buy
Creatify is built around the AI actor: a synthetic presenter delivering your hook in a UGC style. That format sells well for many consumer products, and Creatify adds the ad tooling around it (tracker, cloning, launching). Some brands still find that an AI actor cannot replace a real customer using the product, and agencies in that spot usually source and brief vetted UGC creators for each client for the hero ads and keep AI for the variations.
Plenty of ad and product video does not need a face at all. Product explainers, feature callouts, offer ads, and retargeting cuts run on a clear script, a voiceover, captions, and footage that matches each line. VidUp takes that script, a blog post, or a product URL and returns a finished narrated video in 9:16, 1:1, and 16:9 from one render. Starter is $49 a month ($24 billed yearly) for 30 videos, Growth is $99 ($49 billed yearly) for 75 with 2 seats, and Pro is $199 ($99 billed yearly) for 200 with 3 seats, 4K, and an API. There are no credits and no regeneration charges. VidUp has no AI actors, no ad tracker, and no ad launcher, so if those are the reason you are buying, Creatify is the better fit.
For the faceless ad workflow, the AI video ad generator page shows how a script becomes a set of ad variations, and the AI product video generator page shows the product URL workflow. Tools for ads are ranked by price in the best AI video generator for ads, the avatar side of the market is priced in HeyGen pricing, a creator-focused credit model is broken down in Revid AI pricing and compared on the Revid AI alternative page, category-wide numbers are in how much AI video generators cost, and the VidUp plans are on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions about Creatify pricing
Is Creatify worth the money?
Creatify is worth it for brands and agencies that run UGC-style avatar ads every week, because Pro at $49 a month billed yearly makes about 30 thirty-second ads with free same-script revisions, competitor tracking, and Ad Clone. It is weaker value if your ads do not need a presenter, since a flat text-to-video plan makes more finished videos for the same budget.
How much does Creatify cost per month?
Creatify costs $39 a month for Starter with 100 credits and $99 a month for Pro with 300 credits on monthly billing. Billed yearly, Starter is $19 a month and Pro is $49 a month. Larger Pro sizes cost $199, $299, $499, and $999 a month for 600, 1,000, 2,000, and 5,000 credits.
How many credits does a Creatify video use?
A standard Creatify video ad, avatar video, or AI Short uses 5 credits per 15 seconds, rounded up, so a 30 second ad uses 10 credits. AI revisions cost 3 credits per 15 seconds on Starter, a Veo 3 clip is a flat 10 credits for up to 8 seconds, and Agent, Ad Flow, and Ad Clone costs vary by job.
Can I cancel Creatify anytime?
Yes. You can cancel a Creatify plan at any time, and the subscription and its remaining credits stay active until the end of the billing period. There is also an option to pause the plan. Annual plans are paid up front, and Creatify states that payments are final and non-refundable.
Does Creatify offer refunds?
No. The Creatify refund policy says payments are final and non-refundable and that plans renew automatically. That makes the free plan and a single month of Starter the safest way to test before committing to yearly billing, especially on the larger Pro sizes where the yearly discount is smaller.
Is there a cheaper alternative to Creatify?
For avatar ads, Creatify Starter at $19 a month billed yearly is already one of the cheaper options. For faceless ads and product videos narrated over footage, VidUp Growth at $49 a month billed yearly makes 75 finished videos a month with no credits, against about 30 thirty-second ads on Creatify Pro at the same price.
