Ciyo tools
The AI video generator with no subscription
Ciyo is a pay-as-you-go AI video generator on an infinite canvas. Sixteen video models, one credit balance, and the exact price of every clip shown before you render it.
No subscription
A $10 one-time purchase adds 1,000 credits. There is no recurring charge.
Credits never expire
Unused credits stay in your account until your next project.
The price is visible first
Video prices change with model, duration, and resolution. Ciyo quotes the exact credit cost before you generate.
Failed generations refund
If a clip fails to render, the credits return to your balance automatically.
How it works
Start from text, images, or both
Describe the clip, or add reference images — Seedance 2.0 accepts up to nine, plus video and audio references. You can also pick an image already on your canvas.
Pick a model, duration, and resolution
Choose from sixteen models, set the length and resolution, and read the exact credit cost for that combination before you render.
Iterate on the infinite canvas
Clips land next to your stills and references. Compare takes side by side, then re-render only the shot that needs it instead of paying for a whole new batch.
Sixteen video models on one canvas
Subscription tools usually gate video behind their top plan and their own model. Ciyo prices each clip separately, so every integrated model is available from the first credit:
- Seedance 2.0
- Seedance 2.0 Fast
- Seedance 2.0 Mini
- Veo 3.1
- Veo 3.1 Fast
- Kling 3.0
- Kling 2.6
- Kling 2.5 Turbo
- Kling 2.1 Master
- Gemini Omni Video
- Wan 2.6
- Wan 2.5
- Seedance Pro 1.5
- Seedance Pro 1.0
- Hailuo 2.3
- Hailuo 02
Why pay per clip?
Video is the expensive end of generative AI, and subscriptions handle that by rationing it: monthly caps, credit resets, and premium tiers for the good models. You pay whether or not you shipped anything that month.
Ciyo charges per clip instead. Each credit is worth one US cent, and the quote you see covers the exact model, duration, and resolution you picked. A quick 480p draft and a 1080p final simply cost different amounts, and both prices are on screen before you commit.
When a project ends, spending ends with it. Your remaining balance waits for the next one instead of dissolving into a renewal.
From a still image to a finished clip
Because the video generator lives on the same canvas as Ciyo's image tools, the usual workflow is to explore stills first, cheaply, and animate only the frames worth animating. Select an image on your board and hand it to the video generator as a reference.
Models that support it go further: Seedance 2.0 takes up to nine image references plus video and audio inputs, renders four to fifteen seconds per clip at up to 4K, and can generate native audio with the clip when you switch audio on.
Frequently asked questions
Is there really no subscription?
Correct. Ciyo sells one-time credit packs: $10 adds 1,000 credits, and larger amounts use the same pack at checkout. There is no plan to cancel and no renewal date.
How much does one video cost?
It depends on the model, duration, and resolution, because providers price them differently. One credit equals one US cent, and Ciyo shows the exact credit cost for your current settings before you click Generate.
Can I turn an image into a video?
Yes. Every workflow starts from text, from uploaded reference images, or from an image already on your canvas. Image-to-video is the most common way to use the generator.
Can the video include sound?
Some models generate native audio. Seedance 2.0, for example, has an audio toggle, and you can also supply audio references for it to follow.
How long and how sharp can a clip be?
It varies by model. Seedance 2.0 renders four to fifteen seconds per clip at up to 4K; its Fast and Mini variants trade resolution for price at up to 720p. The settings card lists each model's real options.
Do my credits expire?
No. Credits stay in your account until you spend them, and a failed render refunds its credits automatically.
Pay for clips, not for a month
Open the canvas, pick a model, and see the price of your first clip before you render it. Your credits will still be there next month.
