Limits worth knowing in invideo

  • The annual prices are shown as 50% off the monthly ones, with no end date given; monthly billing doubles the cost.
  • Plan credits reset monthly, even on annual plans, and do not roll over; extra credits last up to 12 months or until the subscription ends.
  • Refunds are given only within 7 days and only if nothing was generated or downloaded in that billing period.
  • Manual timeline editing and exports do not use credits; generation is billed per model at the provider's list price, so a Veo 3.1 4K clip costs far more than a Kling one.
