How credits work
One currency for everything that costs us computing time
Designing, editing and saving are free. Credits are spent on three things, always in advance, and given back if the job fails or you cancel it before it runs.
Render
1 credit per started 10 seconds
times 1 at 720p, 2 at 1080p, 4 at 4K
AI voiceover
1 credit per started 120 characters
with word-by-word timing for subtitles
AI assistant
1 credit per task, 6 credits per expert step
text, directions and render settings are tasks; a design, a 3D scene or a montage built live in the editors is an expert step
The rules
- Plan credits are granted at the start of each billing period and do not carry over.
- Purchased credits never expire.
- Plan credits are spent first, then purchased credits.
- In a team or school, every paid seat brings its own credits and its own storage.
- A job that fails gives back exactly what it took.

Teams and schools
Pay for the seats that render, invite the rest for free
A company or school workspace works on seats. Everyone gets a seat; you only pay for the ones that need more power.
Free seats
Every workspace includes 3 free seats for viewers, newcomers and students.
Premium and Ultimate seats
Buy paid seats for the people who render. Each seat brings its own credits and storage, and the tier of the seat decides the resolution.
Ultra
One plan that mixes Premium and Ultimate seats, so heavy users and occasional ones can share a workspace.
Roles
Owner, admin, editor and viewer, with supervisors and students in schools. Paid seats go to the owner first, then admins, then members by arrival.
A proper paper trail
Companies and schools get a service agreement, which is updated whenever seats or plan change, and branded invoices.
Billing, explained
No surprises on the invoice
Monthly or yearly
Yearly billing costs less than twelve monthly payments; the saving is shown on each plan.
Change when you need to
Move between plans, intervals and seat counts from the studio. Changes are charged or credited at once, pro rata.
Cancel at period end
Stop renewing whenever you like and keep your plan until the period ends. You can resume before it does.
Your own currency
Prices are set for dozens of currencies. If yours is not sold yet you pay in US dollars. The currency is fixed after your first payment.
Secure payments
Payments are processed by Stripe. Sanaa Studio never sees your card number.
Invoices you can use
Every paid invoice is kept in the studio as a branded PDF, with your legal details for companies and schools.
Questions
About prices and billing
Is there really a free plan?
Yes. The free plan gives you the whole studio with monthly credits and storage, a Sanaa watermark and a lower top resolution. No credit card is asked.
What happens to credits I do not use?
Plan credits are granted each billing period and do not carry over to the next one. Credits you buy in a pack never expire.
How many credits does a video cost?
A render costs 1 credit per started 10 seconds, times 1 at 720p, 2 at 1080p and 4 at 4K. A 30-second video in 1080p is 3 blocks times 2, so 6 credits. Use the calculator above to try your own numbers.
Can I pay in my own currency?
Prices are set in dozens of currencies, including many African ones. If yours is not sold yet you pay in US dollars. The currency is fixed after your first payment.
How do I pay?
Plans, week passes and credit packs are paid online through Stripe. Sanaa Studio never sees your card number.
Can I change or cancel my plan?
Yes, from the studio. Plan and seat changes are charged or credited pro rata at once. Cancelling stops renewal at the end of the period, and you can resume before then.
What is the week pass?
Seven days of Premium for a single payment, with no renewal. It is meant for accounts without a subscription who need more for a short time.
How do seats work for teams and schools?
Every workspace includes free seats. You buy Premium or Ultimate seats for the people who render, and each paid seat brings its own credits and storage. The Ultra plan lets you mix both kinds.
Do referral codes lower the price?
A code takes a share off the price of your first month, on monthly plans and week passes. It does not apply to yearly billing or credit packs, you use one code at a time (another one only after 3 months of payments), and you cannot use your own code.
Will I get an invoice?
Yes. Every paid invoice is available in the studio as a branded PDF. Companies and schools also get a service agreement.
