How much does an AI ad generator cost?

Most AI ad generators cost $12 to $80 a month for a solo plan in October 2026. Free tiers exist but watermark exports or cap you at a few credits, and team and agency tiers run $150 to $999 a month. The price tracks credits, seats and video quality rather than the number of ads, and one video costs many times the credits of one image. Tools that also launch ads add a fee on spend, such as Zeely's charge of up to 12 percent.

What drives the answer

Credits and what one buys

On HeyOz an image ad is 2 credits and a video 10; on Higgsfield an image is 2 and a 5-second Kling 3.0 clip 7 to 8. AdCreative.ai spends a credit when you download, not when you generate.

Video and retakes

A 1,200-credit plan is about 600 images or far fewer finished videos after retakes. Expect several attempts per usable clip.

Seats and brands

invideo and Higgsfield bill per seat; AdCreative.ai and Creatify raise brand and user counts with each tier.

Fees on ad spend

Only tools that push ads to a platform take a cut of spend. Zeely launches on Facebook and Instagram and notes extra charges of up to 12 percent on ad spend.

An AI ad generator is priced like software: a monthly plan buys a pool of credits, seats and brands, and sometimes the right to launch the ad from inside the tool. The figures in the table are from each vendor's own pricing page on October 13, 2026. A fee on ad spend can outgrow the subscription at a few hundred dollars a day, so compare the subscription plus the fee at your planned budget.

What to do

  1. Pick the tool by the format you run, then check what one video costs in credits.
  2. Run your own product through the free tier before paying.
  3. Add the fee on ad spend at your planned budget before comparing subscriptions.
  4. Re-check prices quarterly.

Frequently asked questions

Creatify, invideo AI, Higgsfield and Canva Grow all have free tiers, but each limits you. Creatify watermarks exports and gives 10 credits a month, Higgsfield's free plan excludes commercial use, and Canva Grow's free access has plan-based limits. Free tiers are for testing output on your own product, not for running campaigns.
