Pick the right one

Where they differ

On Leap, not on PixVerse

  • Pay as you go: no plan, top up from $5.
  • Every model and resolution on any balance, with no tier to unlock Seedance, MiniMax H3 or 1080p.
  • Nothing resets every 30 days.

On PixVerse, not on Leap

  • PixVerse R2, its real-time world model, and PixVerse Game for interactive experiences.
  • Apps for iPhone and Android.
  • Off-Peak mode, which makes PixVerse-model clips cheaper or free on the higher plans.
  • Its own Agent, Canvas and music video tools.

What it costs

What a run costs on Leap

A new account comes with $2 of credit and no card. The table shows each model's cheapest run and about how many the credit covers. After that you add credit and pay per run, and a run that fails costs nothing.

ModelFromWhat $2 makes
PixVerse V6$0.028for 1 sAbout 72 clips
Seedance 2.5$0.60for 5 s with soundAbout 3 clips
Kling 3.0$0.92for 5 sAbout 2 clips
MiniMax H3$0.86for 6 sAbout 2 clips
Wan 3.0$0.28for 5 s with soundAbout 7 clips
Grok Imagine Video 1.5$0.44for 5 sAbout 4 clips

Each price is one run at the model's lowest-priced settings, from the live catalog. Larger sizes, longer clips and sound cost more, and the studio shows the exact price before every run. How pricing works.
