How much does the video enhancer API cost?

Pricing is output_seconds × tool_version × resolution_bucket × fps_tier. Standard 720P at ≤ 30 fps is the floor; every step up in resolution or to professional doubles the rate. > 30 fps doubles the per-second price within the same tier.

Does the video enhancer API change the video duration?

No. enhance-video-1.0 keeps the output length identical to the source. The fps parameter controls smoothness via frame interpolation, not duration. Billing uses the probed source-video length.

What are tool_version lite, standard and professional in the video enhancer API?

standard runs ~10 frequently used algorithms balanced for cost. professional runs 30+ deep AI algorithms for shot-level enhancement at roughly 10× the credits and 30+× the source duration in processing time.

What input formats does the video enhancer API accept?

Public HTTP/HTTPS URLs to mp4, mov, mkv, avi, flv, ts, wmv, and similar mainstream containers. Files up to 10 GB. Input resolution up to 2K (short side ≤ 1440 px). Base64 / data: URIs are rejected.

Does the video enhancer API support idempotent retries?

Yes. Pass client_token (≤ 64 ASCII chars) on submit. Retrying with the same token returns the original task_id instead of creating a new task — same as Stripe-style idempotency.

Where is the full video enhancer API reference?

The full parameter list, error codes, and runnable cURL examples live at /docs/enhance-video-1-0.

Is Video Enhancer API free or paid?

Paid. Completed generations are charged at the rates in this page's pricing table. Eligible new accounts may receive promotional test credits; availability and amount are shown at signup or in the dashboard. Technical or provider failures are refunded automatically, except where this page documents a charged output-moderation block.

Does Video Enhancer API require a monthly subscription?

No. Pricing is pay-as-you-go: $1 buys 1,000 credits and credits never expire. Cost scales with what you generate rather than with a recurring fee.

How do I get a Video Enhancer API key?

Sign up and create a key in the dashboard, no card required. Pass it as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

What is the Enhance Video 1.0 API?

Enhance Video 1.0 is an async video restoration and upscaling model: post a public video URL and it rebuilds the clip at up to 8K and up to 120 fps without changing its length. Three quality tiers (lite, standard and professional), five scene presets — general, UGC, short drama, AI-generated footage and old film — and either a resolution preset from 240p to 8K or an exact short side between 128 and 4320 px shape the output. Sources up to 10 GB and 2 hours are accepted, and jobs are billed per second of video, measured server-side before the charge.

What you can build with this model

Real-world workflows and production use cases you can build and ship with this model.

Video enhancer for AI-generated footage

Pipe text-to-video output through the video enhancer API with scene=aigc to lift 480p / 720p clips to 1080p, 2K, or 4K. The pipeline repaints fine detail without altering motion or length.

Run an enhancement

Video enhancer for compressed UGC

Send UGC clips with scene=ugc to remove blocking, color banding, and re-encode artifacts. The video enhancer API applies smart sharpening tuned for short-form social footage.

Video enhancer for old-footage restoration

Set scene=old_film and tool_version=professional and the video enhancer API runs temporal denoise, scratch removal, deflicker, and color-cast correction in one pass — no frame-by-frame retouching pipeline.

Why reAPI for Enhance Video 1.0

Video enhancer with 30+ algorithms

The video enhancer API analyzes each shot and dynamically composes super-resolution, denoise, deblock, sharpen, and color-enhance operators. You pick the scene preset; the system picks the algorithm chain.

Transparent video enhancer pricing

Pricing is output_seconds × tool_version × resolution_bucket × fps_tier. The video enhancer API probes your source video for the exact billable seconds before charging — no surprise bills, failed jobs refund.

Async, idempotent, callback-ready

POST returns a task ID instantly; poll /api/v1/tasks/:id or supply an event callback. client_token gives you idempotency for retries; callback_args round-trips opaque correlation data.
