Grade CCompare sub-models, daily quota limits, login requirements, and generation settings.
Free video output at a glance
Based on 25 credits and the lowest observed video cost. Actual output can change with duration, resolution, audio, references, and other settings.
Overview
DaVinci AI is a multi-model video workspace. On 2026-07-22, the authenticated account showed the Free Plan with 25 Monthly Credits and no card required to access Free generation.
Free Video Output
The lowest selector price was Seedance 1.5 Pro from 5 credits, suggesting up to 5 lowest-price videos per month. This is an upper-bound estimate: DaVinci labels it as a `From` price, not a confirmed default Generate-button charge.
What Changes the Price
The default workspace used Seedance 2.0 Fast at 480p, 4 seconds, 1:1, with audio enabled. The model selector exposes duration, resolution, audio, start/end images, and references; these settings can change the final price.
