# Hermoso: exact per-render credit costs

Everything below is priced in **credits**. One pool covers research, image and video, on every plan.
Credits are deliberately not converted to dollars here: the per-credit rate differs by plan, so a dollar
figure would be wrong on three of the four. Reading and managing accounts you already own is free.

## Video models (26)

Video is priced **per second of output and per resolution**, because both change what a render costs.
The table gives each model's available lengths and the credits for the shortest and longest of them at
the default resolution; every length in between is published by `hermoso_capabilities`.

## What costs nothing

**The whole rule in one sentence:** credits are spent on exactly two things, running an AI model and Ad Spy
research, and on nothing else. Publishing, scheduling, campaign management, analytics, comments, DMs, connectors,
brand profiles and team seats are free on every plan. The single exception is X, which bills per call.

Reading and managing what you already own is free, on purpose. Running out of research budget must not
take a whole marketing operation offline with it. Free: `hermoso_capabilities`, `hermoso_credits`,
`list_connectors`, `get_brand`, `list_jobs`, `list_brands`; publishing organically (`post_to_meta`,
`post_to_tiktok`, `post_to_youtube`, `post_to_linkedin_page`, `post_to_pinterest`, `post_to_reddit`);
scheduling; reading insights, replying to comments and pausing a campaign on your own accounts.

**One exception, stated up front:** X (Twitter) bills per API call, because X charges per request, so
every action there costs a few credits, including each post in a thread. Its connector tile says so
before you connect it.

## How a render is billed

A render **reserves** an estimate before the first provider call and **settles** the exact cost
afterwards, refunding or topping up the difference, so the quote and the charge are computed by the
same expression and cannot disagree. If a model is substituted mid-render you are billed for the model
that actually rendered, and the substitution is disclosed in the result. Nothing dispatched to a
provider means a full refund; a clean 4xx, a content-policy refusal or a timeout before any render
refunds in full. Full rules: https://hermoso.ai/docs/credits/
