Where gVideo wins
Video-only focus, not 'one of many tabs'
gVideo's UX, billing, and roadmap are all about video. Krea is broader — image leads, video is a tab. If video is your main job, you don't pay for the parts of Krea you don't use.
11 flagship video models — AI picks the right one
Krea's video stack is narrower than gVideo's, and you still pick manually from a dropdown. gVideo runs the latest flagships of every major vendor (Sora 2 Pro, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, Luma Ray 2, Hailuo 2.3, Seedance 2.0, Pika 2.2, plus i2v + 2 avatar models) and uses an AI Smart Picker to recommend the best 3 for your specific prompt.
One-click 'Generate all 3 side-by-side'
Don't trust a single recommendation? Click once and we run the picker's top 3 in parallel. You see the actual outputs from three different models on the same prompt and pick the winner — no manual switching, no guesswork.
Auto-refund on failure
If a generation fails (fal-side error, timeout, invalid output), credits are refunded automatically. No manual support ticket — the credit shows back in your balance within minutes.
Native audio on the right models
Sora 2 Pro (always-on), Veo 3.1 (always-on), Hailuo 2.3 (always-on), Seedance 2.0 (always-on), and Kling 3.0 / Kling 2.5 Turbo (optional +20%) generate synced audio. No external TTS or dubbing pipeline — pick the right model and audio comes out of the box.

What you get instead of Krea AI
gVideo aggregates the top AI video models under a single credit pool. Instead of paying one vendor for one engine, you pick whichever model matches the shot — from cinematic to cheap-and-fast.
OpenAI's flagship cinematic model
Cinematic quality with advanced motion control
Google's flagship model with native audio
Luma's Dream Machine — fluid motion and photorealism
MiniMax's Chinese video model with native audio
ByteDance's model with joint audio-video generation
Pika's flagship text-to-video — creative, stylized, community favorite
Kling's faster, cheaper sibling
Fast & affordable, great for social media
Side by side
Price comparison
Krea AI: Free tier (100 compute units/mo) + Basic / higher tiers (~$10–60+/mo). Compute units shared across image, video, 3D — video-heavy users burn through fast.
gVideo Pro: $39.99/mo, 1,800 credits — every credit can be spent on any of the 11 video models. ~45 Kling 3.0 5s videos, ~15 Sora 2 Pro HD 4s videos, or a mix.
Pricing as of April 2026. The big difference: gVideo's credit pool is purpose-built for video volume. Krea's compute units are split across modalities — if you only do video, you pay for capacity you don't use.
Krea AI alternative — FAQ
Is gVideo really a Krea alternative when Krea does image and 3D too?
If you primarily make video, yes — gVideo replaces Krea's video tab with a deeper, smarter, video-only product. If you need Krea's image generation or 3D mesh tools, gVideo doesn't cover those. Many creators run both: gVideo for video volume, a dedicated image tool (Krea, Midjourney, etc) for stills.
Does gVideo have real-time generation like Krea Realtime?
No — Krea's real-time image generation is unique to image, and gVideo is video-only. Video generation latency is fundamentally bound by model inference time (30s–2min per clip). For real-time video specifically, no public AI tool delivers this yet.
What's the AI Smart Picker?
When you type a prompt in the Studio, gVideo's AI reads it and recommends the top 3 models for your scene with a confidence score and a one-sentence reason per pick. You can use the top recommendation, manually pick something else, or click 'Generate all 3 side-by-side' to see real outputs from all three before deciding.
Can I bring my Krea prompts to gVideo?
Yes — there's no schema-specific lock-in. AI video models accept natural language; the same prompt that worked in Krea's video tab works in gVideo's Studio. The Smart Picker may steer you toward a model Krea doesn't have (e.g. Sora 2 Pro for photoreal crowds, Veo 3.1 for narrated brand shots).
What about commercial usage?
All gVideo paid plans include full commercial usage rights. Free tier is personal-use only — same posture as most Krea plans.
