How much does an AI music video cost?

AI69 prices three tiers: Starter at $990 for a 1080p clip on Veo 3 (Fast) + Omni, Pro at $2,200 for 2K on Seedance 2.0 + Veo 3/Omni + Kling 2.5, and Premium at $5,000 for 4K on the full model stack. Price is fixed per finished clip cut to your track, typically 3-5 minutes.

Why does the model stack change the price so much?

Higher tiers use more expensive per-generation models (Seedance 2.0, Kling 2.5, 4K rendering) and allow more takes per shot to hit character consistency across a multi-minute clip. Resolution and generation cost scale together.

How long does an AI music video take to produce?

Starter: 3-4 business days. Pro: 5-7 business days. Premium: 10-14 business days. Every tier includes a full storyboard, character bible, and two revision rounds.

How Much Does an AI-Generated Music Video Cost in 2026?

An AI-generated music video costs between $990 and $5,000 per finished clip in 2026, depending on resolution and which model stack renders it. That is the direct answer. The rest of this guide is where that range comes from and which tier fits a given release.

What actually drives the price?

Four variables move the number: target resolution (1080p vs 2K vs 4K), the generation model stack (Veo 3 Fast alone vs. a combined Seedance 2.0 + Kling 2.5 pipeline), how many takes per shot are needed to hold a character consistent across a 3-5 minute clip, and revision rounds. A single-location performance clip with one character is cheap to hold consistent. A five-world narrative video with costume changes, like AI69's "Alive Tonight" for AGA BORYN, needs far more generation passes to keep the same face and outfit continuity intact across every world.

The three tiers, line by line

Starter — $990. 1080p, Veo 3 (Fast) + Omni. Full storyboard and character bible included. Two revision rounds. 3-4 business days. Built for testing a hypothesis on social before committing to a bigger budget.

Pro — $2,200. 2K, Seedance 2.0 + Veo 3/Omni + Kling 2.5. Extended character bible. Two revision rounds. 5-7 business days. This is the tier for a YouTube premiere or a brand channel release, where quality differences already read on screen.

Premium — $5,000. 4K, full model stack, maximum takes per shot. Full bible. Two revision rounds. 10-14 business days. For a big-screen release, a festival submission, or a flagship single — the clip functions as the artist's face for that era.

What is NOT included in the base price?

The quoted price covers one finished clip cut to one track, typically 3-5 minutes. Longer edits, additional language versions, or a second cut for a different platform aspect ratio are quoted separately once the brief is in — AI69 always confirms an exact number before work starts, not an estimate after.

How does this compare to a traditional shoot?

A traditionally shot cinematic music video with a five-location narrative, wardrobe, and a small crew routinely runs $15,000-$60,000+ once travel, permits, and post are counted. The AI pipeline collapses location and crew cost to near zero — the price instead reflects direction, storyboard work, and generation compute, which is why the ceiling is a fraction of a physical shoot even at the Premium tier.
