Short video cost calculator

It depends on how many you post. At 30 videos a month (one a day), the cheapest plan that covers it, across the 6 tools that list one, is $17 a month for ReelForge AI Creator ($0.57 a video), and the most expensive is $69 a month for StoryShort Growth ($2.30 a video). Those are monthly prices from each vendor’s own pricing page, checked on October 31, 2026. ReelForge AI is our product. The figures aren’t like-for-like: video length and visual style differ between tools.

Often, but only if you use it. The calculator divides the monthly bill by the videos you post, so a plan you don’t fill costs more per video than its own rate. ReelForge AI’s Creator plan, for example, is $17 a month for 30 videos: $0.57 each if you make all 30, $1.31 each if you make 13.

Tax, top-ups and credit packs, add-ons, discount codes and yearly billing — every tool here that publishes prices is cheaper billed yearly. The calculator only quotes one plan as listed, so a number above a tool’s largest plan shows as not covered rather than as a plan plus top-ups. Credit-based tools also charge more credits for some visuals, such as full AI video clips. Free plans aren’t in the results; the cost-per-video comparison lists which tools have one.

Yes. ReelForge AI is our product. It’s quoted from the plans on our pricing page, worked out the same way and sorted by price with the other tools, so at some volumes another tool comes out cheaper: at 151 videos a month, for example, Faceless.so Ultra is $99 a month and ReelForge AI Empire is $147.

Each vendor’s own pricing page, checked on October 31, 2026: the monthly price of each plan and the vendor’s own figure for videos a month — a plan limit, its estimate of what its credits make or, for AutoShorts.ai, its posting schedule. Prices change, so the vendor’s page is the final word. The pages we checked are listed under “How the calculator works”.
