The AI models you can generate with
Scenes AI runs on models from Google, ByteDance, Kuaishou, MiniMax and Suno. You choose one by what it is good at — visual quality, price, or how long a single scene can run — and everything else, including which reference images it receives, is handled for you. Prices below are what you are actually charged; one credit is one US dollar.
Video engines
These animate each generated still into a clip. Quality scores come from measured image-to-video preference testing with audio excluded, so they compare the picture rather than the soundtrack.
