# Model Pricing

Flexible, per-use pricing that scales with you

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://developer.topazlabs.com/credit-calculator) 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

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).
{% endhint %}

| Use Case           | Model Family                                                | Output MP Per Credit               |

#### Video Pricing

{% hint style="info" %}
Video credit costs are all estimates calculated based on 10s at 1080p 30fps. For pricing tables at various durations and output resolutions, visit the model family pages linked below. We recommend using out our [credit calculator](https://developer.topazlabs.com/credit-calculator) for larger batch estimates.
{% endhint %}

| Use Case           | Model Family                                                  | Credits Per Video               |

{% hint style="info" %}
There are a few exceptions to some of the families. Click into a given family to view all prices, or view our individual model pricing page.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developer.topazlabs.com/getting-started/model-pricing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
