# Claid.ai costs $15 to $49 a month for 500 to 2,000 credits, and each tool spends credits at its own rate.

By Kevin · Every price checked on claid.ai/pricing and its help center on 11 November 2026

Claid.ai sells monthly credit pools: Essentials is $15 per month ($9 per month billed yearly) for 500 credits, and Pro is $49 per month ($35 billed yearly) for 2,000 credits, with a free trial of 50 credits (read on claid.ai/pricing on 11 November 2026). A cutout costs 1 credit and an AI Photoshoot 4, so Pro buys 500 photoshoots, about $0.098 each at the monthly price. A 5 second video costs 60 credits. API credits are separate: $59 for 1,000. Zemith Plus is $15.99/mo for 1.5M credits, about 200 Product studio scenes, with Batch edit, Virtual try-on and chat included.

## Zemith Plus gives you a bigger pool and more tools for $15.99/mo, but Claid is cheaper for plain cutouts.

- Claid cutouts cost 1 credit: $0.03 each on Essentials monthly, $0.0245 on Pro monthly. Zemith's product cutout is about 3,400 credits, roughly $0.036 at full use of Plus. If you only cut out thousands of images, Claid is cheaper.
- For scenes, Claid's AI Photoshoot is about $0.12 (Essentials monthly) or $0.098 (Pro monthly); Zemith Plus is about $0.08 per scene at full use.
- Plus also covers Batch edit (20 photos, Shopify import), Virtual try-on, Ad maker, 4K upscaling and chat for listing copy.
- Top-ups from $10 for 800k credits never expire.

- **Claid.ai Pro (2,000 credits):** $49/mo (_Billed monthly; $35/mo if billed yearly. 500 AI Photoshoots or 2,000 cutouts or 33 five-second videos; refunds 50% of the latest charge_)
- **Zemith Plus:** $15.99/mo (_1.5M credits · about 200 scenes · Batch edit + Virtual try-on + Ad maker + chat_)

## Three ways Claid.ai's pricing costs more than it first looks.

### The headline price is the yearly price.

> “Essentials $9 / month, 500 credits. Pro $35 / month, 2,000 credits. Billed monthly: Essentials $15, Pro $49.” — [Claid pricing page](https://claid.ai/pricing), Official plan table, 11 November 2026

**On Zemith:** Zemith lists $15.99/mo for Plus and $29.99/mo for Professional on the monthly toggle too, with yearly at $179.88 and $299.88.

### Credits go quickly on the heavy tools.

> “AI Video: Max generations (60 credits for 5s): Essentials 8, Pro 33. AI Photoshoot: Max generations (4 credits): Essentials 125, Pro 500.” — [Claid pricing page](https://claid.ai/pricing), Official plan table, 11 November 2026

**On Zemith:** On Plus, 1.5M credits cover about 200 Product studio scenes, and every generation shows its credit price first, so you can plan the month.

### API credits are a separate purchase, and refunds are partial.

> “1,000 credits one-time purchase $59” — [Claid API pricing page](https://claid.ai/api-pricing), Official price, 11 November 2026

> “We can offer a 50% refund of your most recent charge for the current billing period.” — [Claid help center](https://help.claid.ai/en/article/claidai-refund-policy-1t79ppd/), Official policy, 11 November 2026

**On Zemith:** Zemith has no separate API wallet to manage for the workspace tools; one plan and its top-ups cover them. We do not sell an image API for your own code.

## What Claid.ai's pricing gets right.

### Credits are flexible across tools.

> “Instead of being limited to certain features, you get a monthly credit allocation that you can spend on any operation you want.” — [Claid pricing FAQ](https://claid.ai/pricing), Official text, 11 November 2026

**On Zemith too:** Same idea, bigger scope: Zemith credits also pay for chat, deep research, video and ads on the same plan.

### A free trial and a clear cancel path.

> “Your subscription stops renewing. Your current access and credit balance remain available until the end of the active billing period.” — [Claid help center](https://help.claid.ai/en/article/how-to-cancel-your-claid-subscription-dgccp0/), Official policy, 11 November 2026

**On Zemith too:** Zemith's Free plan is chat only, so image tools start on Plus, but you can cancel it anytime.
