Professional supports your own photos after portrait verification, plus images checked without realistic human faces. Use Standard for other people or unverified portraits.
Start with cinematic, anime, K-pop, retro or another look, then direct the story, setting and individual shots in your own words. Bring your own song, photos and visual reference, or start with a sample song. Scenes are generated for your project, not selected from a stock-video library.
Let AI plan the shots, generate the visuals and cut to your beat. No filming or manual editing. Timing varies with length, quality and demand; we email you when it is ready.
Edit a scene’s prompt and camera move, then regenerate just that shot. Keep the scenes you love and pay only for the new generation. Failed generations return their credits automatically.

Kaiber starts at $10/month for 500 credits, but Beat Sync needs Creator ($29/month, 1,500 credits) or higher, and it doesn't publish what a music video costs in credits (the cost shows next to the generate button). On HeyBop a 3-minute video is ≈$24.95–35.95 on Standard; plans start at $9.99/month.
Kaiber has no free plan; its trial is $5 for 5 days with 500 credits and then converts to Creator at $29/month. HeyBop gives new accounts 150 welcome credits. Upload, setup and examples are free. Video generation has its own quote; one-time packs start at $4.99.
HeyBop refunds failed and moderated generations to your balance automatically. Kaiber's terms say payments are non-refundable except as the agreement provides and that credits are not refundable; they don't describe failed generations separately.
Kaiber's Music Video Montage makes 1-, 2- or 3-minute videos. HeyBop builds the video from your whole song, scene by scene, and shows the price for its length before you start.
Upload your song and photos; see the price before generation.
