01
The length is measured
From the source for a link, from the file for an upload. A private or deleted video does not enter the calculation: it is refused before anything is charged.
Pricing
A video is billed on its length, however many clips it gives. Downloading, publishing or editing never bills again.
How many credits for your video?
45 credits1 credit = 1 minute of submitted video
The exact amount of a generation is shown in the app before you start — computed on your video’s real length.
Everything the product does, in one place. Without a tag, a feature is in every plan; the tag says when it needs Creator or Studio.
What the analysis reads before it cuts.
What every clip gets at generation.
What generation decided can be redone, one move at a time.
The clip leaves ClipHeat without switching tabs.
Each one opens a monthly volume of credits, and one credit is worth one minute of video submitted. Without a plan, the same minute is paid at the rate shown at the top of the page.
What each plan opens, row by row. Amounts are not written here: they come from the server, in the plan cards and in the app.

Each feature is detailed in the documentation.
On the length of the video you submit — not on the number of clips produced, not on their total length, not on how many times you retouch them.
01
From the source for a link, from the file for an upload. A private or deleted video does not enter the calculation: it is refused before anything is charged.
02
Before you start, the “Start the generation” button shows the amount in credits, with what you will have left underneath. It follows the selected range: nothing goes out until you click.
03
Retouching bounds, subtitles, the hook and the reframing, downloads, publishing. None of these triggers billing again.
Charging happens at the end: a generation that fails is not billed, and the log says why. A private link, a deleted one, or one behind an age check is refused before you start, not after.
Every captured segment is billed like a video, by the minute. The total depends on what the channel broadcasts : nobody can announce it in advance. Three things stop it — you, a lifetime of 12 hours per stream, counted from the start of the capture, and its processing budget running out. There is no adjustable spending cap yet : on a long stream, keep an eye on it.
Then they are deleted automatically, along with the source files. Download what you want to keep: ClipHeat produces clips, it does not keep your archive for you.
The allowance restarts every period, and what went unused is not added to the next one. The app tells you how many you have left and when it restarts. Only an overrun carries over: it is deducted from the next period.
1 GB on Free, 20 GB with Creator, 50 GB with Studio. It counts your source videos and your rendered clips. Once the space is full, new generations are suspended — reading, downloading and deleting stay possible, and deleting a generation from the library frees the space at once. Nothing is ever erased without you asking, apart from the 7-day retention above.
At any time, from your settings. What is already paid runs until the end of its period, and your clips stay downloadable for the 7 days that follow their generation.
