# Krea costs $9, $35 or $70 a month, but units do not roll over and extra packs expire in 90 days.

By Kevin · Every price checked on krea.ai/pricing on 11 November 2026

Krea sells Basic at $9/month ($5/month billed yearly) with 5,000 compute units, Pro at $35/month ($21/month yearly) with 20,000 and Max at $70/month ($42/month yearly) with 40,000, plus a Free plan with 100 units a day (checked 11 November 2026). Krea estimates Basic at about 200 Nano Banana 2.1 images or 16 Seedance 2.5 videos and Pro at about 803 images or 65 videos, and Basic does not include Veo 3.1. Its FAQ says units do not roll over, and one-time packs expire after 90 days. Zemith Plus is $15.99/month with 1.5M credits for image and video models, Director, chat and research, with top-ups that never expire.

## Zemith Plus gives you image, video, Director and chat for $15.99/mo; Krea Pro is $35/mo for media alone.

- Text to Image runs Flux 2 and Flux 3, Nano Banana 2 and Pro, GPT Image 2, Seedream 4.5, Qwen Image 2, Wan 2.7 Image and Luma Photon, with a credit price shown before you generate.
- Video Generation runs Veo 3.1, Kling V3.0, Seedance 2.5, Wan 2.7 and Grok Imagine, priced per second, and Director turns an idea into a multi-shot film with voice-over, music and captions.
- Characters keeps one face across shots, and the image editor, background tools, Relight and 4K upscaling sit in the same Creative Studio.
- The same 1.5M credits also run GPT, Claude, Gemini and Grok chat, deep research and Word, PowerPoint, Excel and PDF files, and top-ups from $10 (800k credits) never expire.

- **Krea Pro:** $35/mo (_20,000 units, about 803 Nano Banana 2.1 images or 65 Seedance 2.5 videos; resets monthly_)
- **Zemith Plus:** $15.99/mo (_1.5M credits · image + video models + Director + chat, research & files_)

**On Zemith:** Zemith Plus ($15.99/month) includes Veo 3.1, Kling V3.0, Seedance 2.5, Wan 2.7 and Grok Imagine.

### The meter changes by model, and users report surprises.
