How Dobidy Credits Work: Plans, Pricing, and Getting the Most Value

Dobidy uses a credit system to keep pricing simple. Instead of per-video charges or hidden fees, credits give you a single budget across all tools. This post breaks down how credits work, what each plan includes, and how to get the most from every credit.

The Core Concept: Credits Per Tool

Each tool has a clear, fixed credit cost. Omni Tool costs 300 credits for a batch of 3 video ads. Spatial Story and Time Story start free with a basic model (0 credits, 480p with watermark), and higher-quality models cost 20-50 credits per clip. You always know the cost before you generate. No surprises.

The Plans

Free

Sign up and create Spatial Story walkthrough videos at no cost — 480p with a Dobidy watermark. No credits needed, no credit card required. This is ideal for exploring the tool, testing with your own photos, and seeing what AI video generation looks like before committing to a paid plan.

Basic — $9/month, 400 Credits

Built for individuals and small businesses producing a handful of videos per month. With 400 credits you can generate:

• 1 full Omni Tool run (300 credits for 3 video ads) plus Spatial Story clips
• Multiple HD Spatial Story walkthroughs (20 credits per clip)
• Any combination that fits within 400 credits

That works out to roughly $0.023 per credit — significantly less than any freelancer or production service.

Pro — $45/month, 2,000 Credits

Designed for social media managers, agencies, and businesses producing content across multiple platforms. With 2,000 credits you get room for:

• 6 full Omni Tool runs (1,800 credits) plus Spatial Story clips
• 20 base Spatial Story walkthroughs
• A mix of both tools with room for experimentation

The per-credit cost drops to $0.023, and the higher ceiling supports a consistent content calendar.

Tool Costs Breakdown

Omni Tool v1 — 300 Credits per Run

Omni Tool generates three 10-second video ads from your product photos and creative brief. That is 30 seconds of total output, so 300 credits. You get three different creative directions — different hooks, visuals, and ad copy — from a single session.

Spatial Story — 50 Credits per Clip

Spatial Story generates walkthrough videos from sequential photos. On the free tier, you can generate using the WAN Free engine at 480p (0 credits, watermarked). Paid tiers offer WAN HQ (20 credits per clip, 720p) and Kling (50 credits per clip, highest quality):

• 3 frames, WAN HQ: 40 credits
• 4 frames, WAN HQ: 60 credits
• 5 frames, WAN HQ: 80 credits
• 6 frames (maximum), WAN HQ: 100 credits

For a quick social media clip, 3 frames works well. For a comprehensive property tour, 5 to 6 frames give you a fuller story.

Tips for Maximizing Credits

Prepare Before You Start

The biggest credit waste comes from regenerating because input was not ready. Prepare your photos (well-lit, high resolution, properly framed) and know what you want the video to communicate. One prepared run is worth more than three rushed ones.

Use the Free Tier Strategically

The free tier is best for learning the workflow with Spatial Story walkthrough videos. Try it with your own photos to see the AI quality. Subscribe when you are ready to produce video ads with Omni Tool or upgrade to HD walkthrough videos.

Batch Your Production

Plan your content calendar at the start of the month and produce videos in batches. This helps you allocate credits intentionally. On the Pro plan, 2,000 credits supports a steady weekly publishing schedule.

Reuse Across Platforms

A single Dobidy video works on TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook Reels without modification. The default 9:16 vertical format is native to all major short-form platforms. Generate once, distribute everywhere.

Match the Tool to the Content

Omni Tool is best for polished ad creative with scripted hooks and calls-to-action. Spatial Story is best for showcasing spaces, environments, or product sequences. Choosing the right tool avoids wasted credits.

When to Upgrade

A few signals it is time to move up:

• You consistently run out of credits before the month ends
• You are delaying content because you are rationing credits
• You want to experiment without worrying about cost

Credits reset monthly on your billing date and do not roll over. If you have unused credits at month-end, your plan is the right fit. If you hit zero mid-month, the next tier removes that friction.

Getting Started

Sign up for free and create your first walkthrough video at no cost. Once you see the output quality, pick the plan that matches your production volume. Basic covers most small businesses. Pro unlocks the volume for consistent multi-platform publishing.

Every credit goes toward video production — clear per-tool pricing, no minimums, no hidden fees, no complexity.
