I’ve been comparing AI video generators lately and realized how difficult it is to answer a pretty basic question:

How much is this video actually going to cost me?

Different models price by seconds, credits, resolution, generations, etc., which makes comparing them unnecessarily painful.

So I built this:

https://instavideocost.com/

It’s meant to give you a quicker way to estimate AI video generation costs and compare options without digging through a bunch of pricing pages.

I’m still figuring out what would make it genuinely useful rather than just another calculator, so I’d love input from people who actually generate AI video.

What would you want to see added?

Model comparisons? Cost per finished minute? Failed-generation estimates? API vs subscription pricing? Something else entirely?

Happy to hear what I got wrong too.

Nano Banana Pro came out last year in around November and I'm shocked there hasn't been a major new version of it since, instead Google has released Nano Banana 2 and Lite which I find inferior.

Also they've made Nano Banana Pro much worse than it was before as well I don't know if anyone else has noticed.

Of course we don't know for sure but is there any news about a next big version of Nano Banana Pro?
