AI Companion Image & Video Costs: Real Credit Examples

Token allowances, renewal prices and budgeting for visual generation.

How much do AI companion images and videos cost? In most services, the missing piece is not the monthly subscription—it is the unit price of actions. OurDream publishes a detailed cost schedule; for most other reviewed services, precise current costs are not yet verifiable.

How to read this guide: Product documentation and editorial fit are not the same as independent hands-on testing. A blank or unverified allowance is not a zero. Prices and feature policies can change.

OurDream: documented example prices

Standard monthly: $19.99 per month, billed monthly, including 1,000 Dreamcoins. Standard annual: $119.88 upfront, advertised as $9.99/month equivalent, with 2,000 coins at signup (includes 1,000 bonus), then 1,000 monthly. These figures are from the official provider help center, edited July 17, 2026.

Usage schedule: standard image generation costs 10 coins per two images (5/image); a standard five-second video costs 100; voice calls cost 50/minute. Premium images, additional video seconds and some chat models use different rates. Official coin schedule.

Monthly scenario Cost in coins Included in standard 1,000 monthly coins?
20 standard images + 4 standard five-second videos + 5 voice minutes 20×5 + 4×100 + 5×50 = 750 Yes, 250 coins remain before other metered actions
50 standard images + 6 standard five-second videos + 5 voice minutes 50×5 + 6×100 + 5×50 = 1,100 No, short by 100 coins
40 standard images + 10 standard five-second videos + 10 voice minutes 40×5 + 10×100 + 10×50 = 1,700 No, short by 700 coins

Why we do not quote a full dollar total above 1,000 coins

We have documented the included allowance and consumption rates, but not the current price/size of extra Dreamcoin packs. Reporting a final total of $24.99 or $39.99 would therefore be fabricated. The calculator shows the exact shortfall and lets you enter a verified extra-pack price yourself.

Monthly credits may not be the same as lifetime credits: OurDream documentation distinguishes monthly coin grants and cancellation/expiry rules. Verify the latest balance terms before assuming indefinite rollover.

What to collect for any other provider

To compare Candy AI, DreamGF, Nectar AI, Joi AI and other multimedia competitors fairly, record (1) the actual checkout price and renewal date, (2) included credits, (3) exact credits per image/video/call, (4) pack prices, (5) whether unused credits expire and (6) refund/cancellation terms.

We intentionally do not publish cross-provider price rankings until these six fields are verified. Use the cost calculator in custom mode if you already have those facts from the checkout.

Actual OurDream arithmetic, based on the vendor’s published rates

Scenario Standard images 5-second videos Call minutes Dreamcoins used With 1,000 included coins
Light 20 2 0 300 700 remain
Moderate 40 4 0 600 400 remain
Heavy 60 6 5 1,150 150 short

Standard images cost 10 coins for two images, standard video costs 100 coins per five seconds, and calls cost 50 coins per minute according to OurDream’s published schedule. The base Standard plan is $19.99 per month. The heavy scenario therefore costs $19.99 plus unknown extra-coin charges, not a fictional fixed total.

We cannot fairly rank other providers by image cost until comparable current token rates and pack prices are sourced. For Candy AI, its terms describe generally 100 tokens/month but not a fully documented per-image cost schedule in our dataset. Use the editable cost calculator with your own checkout numbers for other services.

Real example: what 1,000 Dreamcoins can buy

According to OurDream’s provider guide, standard images cost 10 coins per two images (5 per image), standard five-second videos cost 100 coins each, and calls cost 50 coins per minute. A light scenario (20 images, two videos and two call minutes) uses 400 coins. A medium scenario (40 images, five videos and five minutes) uses 950 coins. A heavy scenario (100 images, ten videos and ten minutes) uses 2,000 coins, leaving a 1,000-coin shortfall versus the included monthly allowance. No credible dollar total for that heavy scenario can be given without the extra-coin pack price.

The Standard monthly subscription is documented at $19.99. The annual option requires $119.88 upfront; $9.99 is an equivalent monthly average, not a monthly charge. Other providers may use entirely different credits, capacities and promotional structures, so do not convert competitor credits to dollars without checking their actual purchase offers.

Kindroid’s separate purchased selfie-credit examples are $5.99 for 50 or $9.99 for 100 on direct web purchases in its published documentation. Those are optional purchased credits, not its base subscription price, and should not be presented as if they were equivalent to OurDream’s Dreamcoins.
