## Pricing

HIX AI's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.


## Key features

- **Model library:** Chat with a regularly updated list of models from several vendors, plus separate image and video model lists.
- **Deep research:** A research agent searches the internet and turns findings into a report or slide deck in one flow.
- **Slides, images and video:** Agents for AI slides, image design and video making, billed in credits per slide or per second of video.
- **Writing and documents:** An AI writer and document agent produce text, long articles and Markdown or rich text output.
- **Project space:** Keep files and context together per project; storage is 100MB on Free and 10GB on the Max plan.

## Good for

- People who want slides, images and research from one login
- Marketers drafting social copy and visuals
- Anyone who wants to try several models on a free credit balance

## Worth knowing

- Paid usage is metered in credits; 1,500 credits is about 3 ten-slide decks or 30 seconds of video, per the vendor.
- The free plan's 20 credits cover little generation, and the credit balance resets each billing cycle.
- The pricing page showed Philippine pesos from our location and left dollar prices blank, so paid prices are not listed.
- Chat with standard models is described as unlimited on paid plans only.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. HIX AI bundles chat models, deep research, slides, images and video, all paid for in credits. The free plan gives 20 credits, and the pricing page showed pesos from our location with no dollar prices, so paid costs aren't confirmed.

- **Value for money: C.** No paid dollar price could be read, so it sits in the middle. About 1,500 credits buys roughly three ten-slide decks, per the vendor.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free: 20 credits, a project space with 5 uploads and 100MB. That covers very little generation.
- **Features: C.** Model library, deep research, slides, image, video and writing agents. Everything beyond chat runs on credits.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. A web workspace with several agents and a credit system to learn.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web and a browser extension. No phone or desktop app and no integrations are listed.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace HIX AI you would be making an AI model, which you can rent by the request but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 63 of the 71 other AI assistants grade higher.

- You could not: An AI model, which you can rent by the request but not make.
- You could not: An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
- You could not: A library of papers and sources to search.
- You could not: An image model, which you can rent by the picture but not make.
- You could not: A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
- You could not: A slide editor.
