Pricing

Pixapi uses credits to meter model usage. Pricing depends on the model family and generation settings.

Use the live pricing page as the source of truth for plan limits and credit packages.

Cost drivers

Workload	Main cost drivers
Image generation	model id, quality, size, output count
Image editing	model id, reference image count, output count
Video generation	model id, seconds, resolution, image

Planning usage

Estimate monthly cost with:

monthly credits = requests per month * average credits per request

Then add a buffer for retries, experiments, and quality upgrades.

Billing errors

When credits are insufficient, Pixapi returns:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "insufficient_credits",
    "message": "Not enough credits for this request."
  }
}

Show Credits, Billing, or an upgrade path instead of retrying automatically.
