Pricing

Last updated: September 7, 2026

RJStory runs on credits. 1 credit = 1 US dollar.

What a video costs

In plain words: you pick a length. The credits shown are the most you can pay. For the minute options you pay only for what is delivered. Nothing delivered, nothing charged.

30 seconds - 4 credits (about $4). Fixed price. Available through the API today.
Up to 1 minute - up to 7 credits (about $7)
Up to 3 minutes - up to 15 credits (about $15)
Up to 5 minutes - up to 26 credits (about $26)

For the minute options: a successful reel costs at least 5 credits. Above 30 seconds you pay 0.5 credit more per started 5-second block. Charges are never above the reserved maximum. The full price applies only above 45 seconds on the 1-minute option. It applies only above 125 seconds on the 3-minute option. It applies only above 235 seconds on the 5-minute option.

The maximum price is shown before you render and is reserved from your balance before any paid step begins. The unused reserve is returned after settlement. Retries and fallback do not change your price. The client never sets the price; the server computes, reserves and settles it. If no video is delivered, the full reserve is returned automatically.

Buying credits (top-up)

Log in and use the Buy button to add credits. Top-up credits are separate from the internal cost of running a render. You buy a credit balance; each render reserves its maximum price from that balance and settles under the same base-plus-block formula.

$1 always equals 1 credit.
The available top-up amount is shown before you pay. Payments are processed by a secure payment processor (the merchant of record); the amount you are charged is validated by our server, not the browser.
You can pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or USDC (stablecoin). The exact set of payment methods shown at checkout depends on your region, currency, and device; the USDC option appears when paying in USD.

Our own render costs (the AI models RJStory calls) are hard-capped per video by internal render cost controls and are separate from what you pay. You never pay overruns.

No guaranteed result

RJStory depends on third-party AI and video generation providers. Providers can be slow, rate-limited, or temporarily unavailable. A render may be delivered in a degraded or partial form (with fewer scenes) and is then marked as such. See the Refund Policy for how failed, partial, and delivered renders are treated.
