Edit Videos Without a Monthly Subscription

Upload your video, choose your edit, and see the cost before generating.

Can I Use Genjutsu Without a Monthly Subscription?

Yes, through different routes. The official Higgsfield API uses its own prepaid US-dollar balance without a website subscription; its catalog includes Genjutsu Object Swap and Motion Transfer. Website credit packs follow different rules and require an active subscription to purchase.

Genjutsu AI is an independent alternative with a browser editor and standalone credit packs. You do not need an active subscription to buy a pack or use its credits. We do not claim to use the official Genjutsu model. No monthly fee does not mean free generation.

Countryside Duo

Prompt
Edit @video1 using these separate reference mappings. The dancer in the blue jersey, initially on the left: curly-haired woman in a red jacket from @image1. The dancer in the striped green/yellow jersey and cap, initially on the right: brown-haired man in a dark green sweatshirt and gray trousers from @image2. Move the scene to a quiet countryside village street with white cottages and a stone wall. Keep the motorcycle in its original position. Preserve the source movement, timing, camera path, framing, contact points and occlusion order. Track each subject through crossings and cuts; never merge identities or add people. Keep unlisted people and objects unchanged.

Official Genjutsu and This Studio: Which Route Fits You?

Choose the official API if you specifically need the Genjutsu endpoints and can work with an API. Choose Genjutsu AI if you want to prepare an edit in a browser and buy standalone credits. Accounts, balances, billing and support are separate; similar editing tasks do not establish model or output equivalence.

Balance validityExtra credit packs: 90 days from purchase. Other grants have their own rules.Funds expire one year after they are added.Current standalone packs have no scheduled expiry. Subscription and promotional credits have separate validity.
Renewal and top-upsCredit packs do not auto-renew; the underlying subscription is billed separately.Auto top-up is optional. Review its setting in the API billing console.Packs do not renew or refill automatically. Optional monthly and annual subscriptions renew until cancelled.
How you use itHiggsfield’s visual website interface; access follows your plan.Separate API account and key, with REST or SDK integration. No website plan required.Prepare files in the browser, then sign in for upload, quote, purchase and generation.

Official API example: Genjutsu Object Swap lists $0.318 per second of input at 480p, before applicable customer discounts. Input duration is rounded up to a whole second, so exactly 10 seconds calculates to $3.18. The $5 minimum top-up is a separate first-payment requirement. Confirm the live endpoint rate and request estimate; this is not this studio’s price.

Failure rules also differ. The official API says failed requests return their cost to its dollar balance. Here, confirmed unsuccessful steps return credits; successful preparation or generation steps may remain charged. Returning balance or credits is different from refunding a card payment.

Official public billing and model pages checked on October 12, 2026. This comparison does not certify account-level access, payment or paid output quality; current terms and quotes apply.

What Does One Video Edit Cost?

There is no single fixed price for every edit. The quote depends on the task, selected model, supported duration and resolution, and any reference-image preparation. Check inputs to get the current server quote, then confirm separately. Changing inputs or settings clears the old quote.

One-time credit packPack price (USD)Credits includedValidity
Starter Pack$7.90220No scheduled expiry
Creator Pack$19.90600No scheduled expiry
Studio Pack$49.901,600No scheduled expiry

These prices come from the same catalog as /pricing. You buy a pack of credits, not exactly one video. The cost per edit is the quoted credit amount; any remaining credits stay in your balance. Checkout shows the final amount and applicable taxes.

Choose a credit pack for a one-time payment. Monthly and annual plans are separate subscriptions that renew automatically unless cancelled. This service does not offer automatic credit-pack top-ups.

Download and resolution

Downloading a completed, available result does not deduct extra credits. Resolution is chosen before generation and included in its quote. There is no separate paid HD export option in the current editor.

Failure, cancellation and retry

Confirmation reserves the quoted credits. After a confirmed failure, block or cancellation, credits for steps that did not succeed are returned; successful steps may remain charged. Cancellation is limited to queued tasks without active provider generation. A retry receives a fresh quote for remaining work, which can cost credits. An uncertain submission must be reconciled before retrying.

Real Results and Their Credit Costs

Two real edits generated in the local test environment on October 8, 2026. The recorded amounts are credits deducted from the app test account, not supplier API costs or a current price guarantee. Your edit needs its own quote. These examples do not certify the production purchase-to-generation flow.
