## What one ad costs, by length

Three common choices: the lowest-priced UGC ad, Seedance 2.5 at 720p for a sharper take, and the 2K version for the sharpest. Prices are live and before VAT.

**One AI UGC ad by length** (Price per finished clip, before VAT)

| Length | H3 Max + Kliperio Combo · 480p | Seedance 2.5 · 720p | H3 + Kliperio Combo · 2K |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 5 seconds | €0.45 (10 tokens) | €0.765 (17 tokens) | €0.675 (15 tokens) |
| 10 seconds | €0.90 (20 tokens) | €1.529 (34 tokens) | €1.35 (30 tokens) |
| 15 seconds | €1.35 (30 tokens) | €2.294 (51 tokens) | €2.025 (45 tokens) |

A failed clip is not charged: its price goes back on your balance. Every model and length is on the [price list](https://kliperio.com/pricing).

## One test round

One product, ten opening lines, ten finished ads: enough to see which angle gets watched. Each line is today's price for one use, added up.

| Item | Price |
| --- | --- |
| 10 AI hooks (one opening line a call) | €0.90 (20 tokens) |
| 10 UGC ads (5 s · 480p) | €4.50 (100 tokens) |
| 1 Product Analysis (optional: who buys it, where, at what price) | €1.98 (44 tokens) |
| **Total** | **€7.38 (164 tokens)** |

Today's per-use prices added up. Not a bundle and not a discount; skip any line you do not need.

## What a human creator charges

Creators price per video, and the going rate depends on their reach and what the brief asks for. Two recent market reports, read on the day shown under Sources.

**One UGC video by a human creator** (In the currency each report uses, before tax)

| What | Price | Report |
| --- | --- | --- |
| A UGC video by a human creator, base price | €180 | Influence4You: UGC video pricing in 2026 (published 18 Jan 2026) |
| What brands pay on average for one brief-ready video | €320 | Influence4You: UGC video pricing in 2026 (published 18 Jan 2026) |
| The median price creators ask for one UGC video | $175 | Influee: UGC rates (published 18 Apr 2025) |
| Kliperio, for comparison: one AI UGC ad | €0.45 (10 tokens) | Live: 5 s at 480p, from a balance you top up from €2 |

A creator's price usually includes their own voice, filming and some edits; an AI ad gives you none of their reach. AI ad tools that sell credit plans are compared on their own pages.

## What makes one ad cost more or less

**Length.** Price grows with seconds. On Seedance 2.5 at 480p, 5 seconds cost €0.328 and 10 seconds €0.655. Most ads that test well open strong in the first 3 seconds, so a short take is usually enough to learn from.

**Sharpness.** The same 5-second Seedance 2.5 clip costs €0.328 at 480p and €0.765 at 720p. Phones show 480p fine for a first test; save the sharper version for the ad you scale.

**Sound.** Some models cost less without sound: a 5-second Kling 3.0 clip is €0.54 with sound and €0.36 without. If you add a voice-over later, skip the model's own sound.

**Failures.** On Kliperio a clip that fails costs nothing, so a failed take never adds to the bill. On credit plans, check each tool's own rule.

## How to spend less for each ad that works

What we do for our own products. It keeps the cost of learning low; it is not a promise of sales.

1. **Test the words before the look** Write several opening lines at €0.09 each and keep the two or three that stop you scrolling.
2. **Make short, cheap takes** Make each kept line as a 5-second take at 480p, from €0.328 on Seedance 2.5.
3. **Let the numbers pick** Post or run them side by side for a few days and drop the ones people skip.
4. **Then make the winner bigger** Make the winning take longer, sharper or both, or run it through Upscale HD.

## Questions, answered

### How much does one AI UGC ad cost?

On Kliperio from €0.45 for a 5-second ad at 480p, before VAT. Longer and sharper ads cost more, and the studio shows the exact price before you click.

### Is an AI UGC ad cheaper than a human creator?

Per video, yes, by a lot: a market report puts a human creator's base price at about €180, against €0.45 for a short AI ad here. A good creator still brings a real voice and real use of your product, which AI cannot.

### Do I need a subscription to make AI UGC ads?

Not on Kliperio: open a free account, top up from €2 and pay per ad. Most other AI ad tools sell monthly or yearly credit plans.

### What does a failed AI video cost?

Nothing on Kliperio. If a video fails, its full price goes back on your balance automatically.

### How many ads should I make to test one product?

We start with about ten short takes from ten different opening lines, then make the best one or two bigger. That keeps the cost of learning small; it does not promise any sales.

### Can I run AI UGC ads as paid ads?

Yes, what you make may be used for any lawful purpose, paid ads included. Label realistic AI people where the platform asks; our guide on labelling AI ads lists the rules.

### Do these prices include VAT?

No. Kliperio prices are before VAT, which is added at checkout where the law asks for it. The other figures are before tax in each source's own currency.
