How to Get Started with AI Video for Free (200 Credits Inside)

Discover how to generate your first professional AI video without providing a credit card—and why this approach beats subscription-gated trials.

5 min read

Most AI video platforms want your credit card before you've even created your first video. Not AIVeed. With a simple Google sign-up, you get 200 free credits—enough to generate one complete professional video—without entering any payment information.

Why Free Credits Matter

Let's be honest: trying a new AI tool can feel risky. Will it match your quality expectations? Does it fit your workflow? Can you trust it with your content? These questions are hard to answer with a 3-day trial that automatically bills you unless you remember to cancel.

AIVeed's 200 free credits solve this problem. You can:

  • Generate a complete 8-second video to test quality
  • Explore the full platform features (text-to-image preview, customization, video extension)
  • Experience the under-2-minute generation speed
  • Decide if AIVeed fits your needs—all before spending a cent

💡 What can you do with 200 credits?

Since each video costs 120 credits, 200 free credits give you enough to generate one professional video and still have 80 credits left to experiment with text-to-image previews or try different avatars.

How to Get Your 200 Free Credits

The process takes less than 60 seconds:

  1. Visit AIVeed.io and click "Sign Up" in the header
  2. Click "Continue with Google" (the blue button)
  3. Select your Google account from the popup
  4. Grant permissions (we only access your name and email)
  5. Boom—you're in! Your dashboard shows 200 credits ready to use

No payment forms. No credit card verification. No countdown timers creating pressure. Just instant access to professional AI video generation.

Comparing Free Trials: AIVeed vs Competitors

Let's look at how AIVeed's free credits stack up against other AI video platforms:

Yes (for full)

Notice the pattern? Most platforms use free trials as acquisition funnels—they require your credit card upfront, betting you'll forget to cancel before the trial ends. AIVeed's approach is different: try before you buy, with zero pressure.

What to Do with Your First 200 Credits

Once you've signed up and see those 200 credits in your dashboard, here's how to maximize them:

1. Test the Text-to-Image Preview (Free!)

Before spending any credits, use the text-to-image preview feature to experiment with different:

  • Avatar ethnicities and genders
  • Environments (office, kitchen, outdoor, studio)
  • Camera angles and compositions

Previews don't cost credits—only final video generation does. This lets you iterate until you've nailed the look.

2. Generate Your First Video (120 Credits)

Once you're happy with the preview, hit "Generate Video." In under 2 minutes, you'll have a professional 8-second video. This uses 120 of your 200 credits, leaving you with 80.

3. Experiment with Extensions (Optional)

If you want to test video extension (continuing your video beyond 8 seconds), you can use your remaining 80 credits toward a partial extension. Or, save them for future previews and experiments.

💡 Pro Tip: Start Simple

Your first video doesn't need to be perfect. Use it as a quality test—check the avatar realism, voice quality, and generation speed. You can always buy more credits if you're impressed (starting at just $5 for 600 credits).

Why Google Sign-Up?

You might wonder: why Google specifically? Here's the thinking:

  • Speed: One-click authentication beats filling out forms
  • Security: OAuth is safer than password creation
  • Trust: You control what permissions you grant
  • Privacy: We only access your name and email—nothing more

Plus, it's the same sign-in method you use for YouTube, Gmail, and Google Drive—so it feels familiar and trustworthy.

After Your Free Credits: What's Next?

Once you've used your 200 free credits and decided AIVeed fits your needs, buying more is simple:

  • Pilot Pack: $5 for 600 credits (5+ videos)
  • Popular Pack: $19 for 3,000 credits (25+ videos)
  • Business Pack: $99 for 20,000 credits (166+ videos)

All purchases support PayPal or credit card, and there are no subscriptions—buy credits once, use them forever.

Real User Experience: Sarah's Story

"I was skeptical of another 'free trial' that would charge me later. When I saw AIVeed's Google sign-up gave me actual free credits without a credit card, I tried it. Generated a product demo video in 90 seconds—no joke. Quality blew me away. Bought the $19 pack immediately and haven't looked back."

Conclusion: Try Before You Buy

AI video generation is powerful, but it's not one-size-fits-all. AIVeed's 200 free credits let you test drive the platform—quality, speed, features—without risk or pressure.

No credit card. No countdown timers. No auto-billing surprises. Just pure, instant access to professional AI video generation.
