## Pricing

Moonvalley Marey's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.


## Key features

- **Text and image to video:** Marey generates video from a prompt or a still image, aimed at cinematic detail, motion and lighting.
- **Camera control:** Direct camera moves from a single image; Moonvalley says the model turns the 2D scene into a 3D environment.
- **Motion and pose transfer:** Pull timing and movement from a reference video and apply it to new subjects or scenes.
- **Trajectory control and keyframing:** Draw a path for an object, or place reference images on a timeline so the model generates the transitions.
- **Licensed training data:** Moonvalley says the model was trained only on licensed footage, with no scraped content and no user submissions.

## Good for

- Studios and agencies that need a video model with a stated licensed-data basis
- Filmmakers who want camera and motion direction rather than prompts alone
- Pipeline teams reaching Marey through partner platforms such as fal or ComfyUI

## Worth knowing

- Moonvalley says it is retiring its Standard, Plus and Pro self-serve plans, with auto-renewals stopping on March 23, 2026, so no public price is listed.
- Access is now through enterprise and studio partnerships; the company's own public API is only a waitlist.
- The site links to Marey on fal.ai and in ComfyUI, where pricing is set by those platforms.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Moonvalley Marey you would be making a video model, which you can rent by the second 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: 74 of the 89 other AI image and video generators grade higher.

- You could not: A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, fal.ai and ComfyUI among them, and has an API.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
