FAQ
How much does the PixVerse API cost?
Pricing depends on resolution and duration: 360p/540p 5s costs 70 credits, 720p 5s costs 90, 1080p 5s costs 150. Longer duration and audio-enabled doubles the cost.
What is thinking mode?
PixVerse 5.6 has a "thinking_type" parameter (enabled/disabled/auto) that enables deeper scene understanding for better results.
Does PixVerse support audio?
Yes. Set generate_audio_switch to true to generate audio alongside the video. This doubles the credit cost.
