Is the video generator really free?

Yes. Every account gets 20 credits a month with no card and no trial that runs out. Paid plans add more credits and let you run several generations at once.

Is there a watermark?

RenderHour adds no watermark to results, on the free plan or any other.

How long are free results kept?

Results on the free plan are kept for 30 days, so download what you want to keep. On a paid plan they stay until you delete them.

What happens when the free credits run out?

Next month’s credits arrive on the day your account was made; unused ones do not carry over. If you need more before then, plans start at $10 a month for 250 credits.

Free AI video generator

Every RenderHour account gets 20 free credits a month, with no card and no trial that runs out. They work with every video model; 13 of them make at least one clip with that, and each card below shows how much. Seedance 2.0 Mini makes the most: 40 seconds of video in clips of up to 15 seconds.
