HeyGen Pricing in 2026: Every Plan, the Credit Tiers, and How Many Minutes a Credit Buys

HeyGen sells monthly credits, and different avatar models spend them at very different rates. The plan price matters less than how many minutes of the avatar you want those credits turn into.

HeyGen Pricing, Plan by Plan

Creator per month, monthly versus billed yearly ($288 a year) for 600 credits a month

HeyGen turns a script into a video presented by an AI avatar, with voice cloning and video translation. It has five plans: Free, Creator, Pro, Business and Enterprise. Paid plans include a monthly allowance of credits, and the avatar models, the Video Agent and translation each spend credits per minute. [1] [2]

That makes the headline price a poor guide. The same 600 credits buy about 150 minutes of video with the Avatar III model but only about 19 minutes with Avatar IV, so the model you plan to use decides which plan you need.

HeyGen labels yearly billing "2 months free". Its help center says the number of custom avatar slots included can vary by region and by when the account was created; an extra slot costs $29 a month or $288 a year.

How many minutes HeyGen's credits buy

Credits spent per minute of output, from HeyGen's help center, and the minutes each plan's monthly credits cover. The minutes are our arithmetic (credits ÷ rate). [2]

FeatureCredits per minuteCreator (600)Pro entry (1,000)Business (1,500)

Other rates: translation without lip-sync 4 a minute, Speed translation 6, custom expressive motion 40, Video Agent with Seedance 240, image assets 2 each, model training 60. On Business, all seats draw from the same 1,500 credits.

HeyGen Pro credit tiers

Pro is one plan with a credit slider. Prices from the page's own tier list. [1]

Credits a monthMonthlyBilled yearly (per month)Yearly total
1,000$49$41$488
1,500$74$62$738
2,000$99$82$988
3,000$149$124$1,488

50,000$2,250$1,877$22,518
100,000$4,300$3,586$43,030

Pro is a single-seat plan at every tier. Only Business can buy extra credits on top of its allowance, at $0.05 a credit in blocks of 100; Creator and Pro users move up a tier instead.

What HeyGen costs for 1, 3 and 5 people

Yearly totals. Creator and Pro have one seat each, so a team either shares Business or buys separate accounts. [1]

TeamBusiness (yearly)Business (monthly)Separate Creator accounts (yearly)
1 person$1,428$1,788$288
3 people$1,908$2,268$864
5 people$2,388$2,748$1,440

Swipe horizontally to compare →

Business totals add $240 a year per extra seat ($20 a month × 12). HeyGen states the seat price per month and does not list a separate yearly seat price. Separate Creator accounts give each person 600 credits but no shared workspace, SCORM or SSO.

What the free plan really allows

Free needs no credit card and includes 1 to 3 videos a month, depending on region, each up to one minute, with a HeyGen watermark and 720p sharing. You also get one custom avatar and one voice clone to test with. [1] [2]

It is a trial, not a way to publish. The one-minute cap and the watermark rule out most real videos, and there is no paid trial of the higher plans.

Rollover, refunds and cancelling

Unused credits on monthly plans carry over for one extra month. On yearly plans, credits arrive each month and build up until renewal. Credits are lost if you cancel down to Free. [2]

HeyGen says purchases are generally non-refundable. Web purchases can be refunded within 15 days at HeyGen's discretion, and a request may be refused if many credits were used. Cancelling a yearly plan does not refund or prorate the unused months, and pausing a subscription delays the next charge by 30 days but expires all credits when the pause starts. [3] [4]

If the price isn't the real problem

HeyGen presents a script with an avatar. If the video has to show your software doing a real task, credits spent on a presenter do not solve that; you still need footage of the product.

Bingeable records that part: you give it a product URL and a sentence, and an AI agent performs the workflow in a real browser and returns a narrated, captioned tutorial, with your own digital twin as presenter if you want one. Bingeable starts free for your first tutorial; Starter is $39 per month billed annually ($49 monthly) and Growth is $149 per month billed annually ($179 monthly). [5]
