# Pricing

Pay only for what you process — billed per output megapixel across all image models. No subscriptions, no minimums, no expiration. Use our [credit calculator](https://www.claudeusercontent.com/?domain=claude.ai\&errorReportingMode=parent\&formattedSpreadsheets=true) to estimate costs before you build.

### Credits

Credits are the currency of the Topaz Labs API. All image processing is billed in credits, deducted automatically when a job completes.

### How MP Output is Calculated

Billing is based on the **output** resolution of your processed image — not the input.

### Model Family Pricing

All models are available on a pay-per-use basis. The following are the pricing families for our Image API and Video API.

#### Image Pricing

{% hint style="info" %}
Image models are priced linearly based on MP output (e.g. 1 credit = 24 MP of output).
