Pricing

Credits-based, transparent, $0 egress forever.

Pricing

Ansdev uses a credit-based wallet. 1 credit = ₹1 INR. There are no subscriptions, no minimums, no hidden tiers — top up, spend, repeat.

Video Processing (one-time)

Quality	Cost per minute
audio only	0.25 credits
480p (SD)	1.0 credit
720p (HD)	1.5 credits
1080p (Full HD)	2.0 credits
1440p (2K)	3.5 credits
2160p (4K)	5.0 credits

Add-ons: Custom branding +0.5 cr/min, AES-128 encryption +0.5 cr/min.

A 5-minute 1080p video with both add-ons therefore costs:

5 × (2.0 + 0.5 + 0.5)  =  15 credits  =  ₹15

API Access

Action	Free tier	Paid
GET /v1/video, GET /v1/video/:id	Unlimited	—
POST /v1/video/:id/playback-token	1,000 / day per key	0.5 credits per 1,000 (roadmap)

Per-call billing for API requests above the free tier ships in Phase 18 — for now everything above 1,000 tokens/day/key returns 429 instead of falling through to paid usage.

Storage

1.5 credits per GB per month, billed as a fractional daily deduction off your CLOUD wallet bucket. The nightly Cloud Run Job re-measures usage and prorates the charge.

Delivery

$0. Always. Forever.

Ansdev fronts the media bucket with Cloudflare R2 — zero egress fees, period. Stream to one viewer or a million; delivery costs you nothing.

Wallet buckets

Your Master Wallet holds idle credits. Allocate them into purpose-specific buckets:

Bucket	Pays for
CLOUD	Storage (nightly fractional debit).
AI	LLM token runway (future).
CREATIVE	Video upload / processing / branding / encryption.

The escrow flow locks credits from the right bucket before a job starts, so you can’t silently overdraft mid-transcode.

Referrals

• Referrer: +5 credits when invitee makes their first deposit.
• Invitee: +2 credits on top of their initial top-up.

If the invitee refunds within the 48-hour eligibility window, both bonuses are clawed back via a REFUND ledger entry. See the in-dashboard Invite & Earn page.

Top-ups happen via Razorpay (INR) or Stripe (USD). Webhooks are the single source of truth — frontend confirmations never credit your wallet on their own.
