Is Burning Bridges AI Free? Credits, 480p and 720p Explained

A complete Burning Bridges AI generation is not free. New users receive 30 welcome credits, while the lowest-cost generation uses 40 credits. The welcome balance is a contribution toward a paid generation, not a free full video.

The current purchase option is $9.99 for 100 credits, paid once. The service has no subscription. The prices on this page are our site's credit prices, not the separate API prices charged by the model provider.

What each quality option costs

• 480p — 40 credits: one fixed 15-second, 16:9 video.
• 720p — 60 credits: one fixed 15-second, 16:9 video.

Both options use the same prepared party scene workflow. Increasing the resolution does not guarantee a better likeness or flawless motion. There is no native 1080p option and no separate duration or portrait-format selector in the current generator.

The generation credit charge covers producing the visual scene, attaching the prepared soundtrack and saving the completed file for your account. Downloading that completed result does not require another generation purchase. The service does not add a separate watermark-removal purchase; review the finished output itself, since AI artifacts or provider output details are not guaranteed absent.

What the 30-credit welcome allowance buys

The allowance does not run a generation by itself:

• For 480p, a new account is 10 credits short of the 40-credit cost.
• For 720p, it is 30 credits short of the 60-credit cost.

There is no 10-credit top-up product. The available one-time pack is 100 credits for $9.99. After a new user buys that pack, the combined balance is 130 credits: three 480p generations would use 120 and leave 10; two 720p generations would use 120 and leave 10. A 480p and a 720p generation would use 100 and leave 30.

A 100-credit pack on its own covers two 480p generations with 20 left, or one 480p and one 720p generation with no credits left. These examples assume successful charged jobs and no other transactions.

When credits are added and reserved

Google sign-in identifies the account that owns the balance and creation history. Payment credits are added after payment confirmation; reaching a checkout screen is not proof that the purchase was paid or credited.

When you start a generation, the displayed amount is reserved for the job. Do not repeatedly start the same request because its progress has not changed: each new generation can be a separate charged task. Return with the same Google account to check the existing creation first.

Our checkout uses Waffo and the specified shared merchant store. Its branding may differ from this site's name. Keep the order reference if you need help identifying a payment.

Failed jobs, retries and refunds

A confirmed video-generation failure restores reserved credits. A submission whose provider status is unknown requires reconciliation before credits can be restored. This distinction prevents treating an unfinished or unknown job as both a paid result and a refunded request.

Adding the soundtrack is a separate processing step. Retrying that step on the existing generated video does not incur an additional generation credit charge. Starting a new visual generation is a new job, not an audio retry.

Credit restoration after a failed generation is different from refunding a money purchase. Purchase refund requests are reviewed against unused credits and the payment provider's applicable rules. See the full refund policy; we do not promise an automatic cash refund for an output you dislike.

Is a higher-resolution retry the right next step?

First check whether the input photo is clear and the result is actually complete. If the face changes during a turn or behind a cup, buying 720p cannot guarantee that the identity will be fixed. Read how to diagnose face distortion before spending credits on another generation.

See real generation examples, follow the one-photo tutorial, or return to the generator to check the current balance and charge before submitting.
