Free AI Video Generator, Turn Text Into Video

Hoodgen's AI video generator turns a written idea into a real video clip in about a minute. Describe the shot, a drone flight over mountains, a product close-up, a cinematic street scene, and the model renders motion, lighting and camera movement for you. No editing timeline, no plugins, no watermark: the generated MP4 is yours to download.

How to Generate a Video

  • Type what should happen in the video, a camera move plus the subject works best.
  • Pick a model: Wan 2.6 is the cheapest at about 475 credits for a 5 second 720p clip, or 190 at 480p.
  • Set the aspect ratio, length and quality, then press Generate video and wait 30, 120 seconds.

Which Video Model Should You Use?

  • Budget, Wan 2.6, Grok Imagine Video, Veo 3.1 Lite, Hailuo 3 Max, Seedance 2.0 Fast.
  • Standard, Seedance 1.5 Pro / 2.0 / 2.5, Wan 2.7, Kling 3.0, Runway Gen-4.5, Veo 3.1 Fast.
  • Premium, Veo 3.1, Sora 2 Pro, Runway Aleph 2, FLUX 3 Video.

What Can You Create?

  • Reels and Shorts, choose the 9:16 portrait aspect ratio
  • Product and promo clips for a store or landing page
  • Scenery and drone-style shots for a blog or presentation
  • Cinematic B-roll from a single sentence

Tips for Better AI Videos

  • Describe the camera: “slow dolly in”, “drone shot”, “close-up”, “camera pans right”.
  • Set the light and mood: golden hour, neon night, soft overcast, dramatic shadows.
  • Keep one action per clip, short, clear shots render best.

Which video models can you use?

Thirty models, all through one account and one credit balance. They differ in cost per second, maximum clip length, resolution and whether they synthesise audio with the picture. Grouped by what they are actually for:

Cheapest first is not always the right order. If the clip needs sound, start at Veo 3.1 Lite or Seedance 1.5 Pro rather than rendering silent and hunting for a track afterwards. If the clip has to match a product photo exactly, start from the image instead of from text.

Length, resolution and starting from an image

Most models render 5 to 10 second clips, with Wan 3.0 and Seedance 2.5 able to go longer. Resolutions and aspect ratios differ per model and are shown in the picker. If a model accepts a first frame, you can upload an image and the clip begins from it, which is the reliable way to keep a character, a product or a location consistent across several shots.

Hoodgen pricing, plainly

Video is the most expensive thing on the platform per request, because every second of output is real GPU time. Credits are charged per clip and refunded automatically if a render fails.

A 5 second budget clip is roughly 475 credits at 720p, 190 at 480p, on Wan 2.6, so Pro Monthly (3,750 credits) is about 19 test clips a month, fewer on premium models. Render a single low-cost test before committing to a longer take. Live prices are on the pricing page.

How Hoodgen compares to other AI video tools

Most video generators sell one or two models with a monthly cap. The difference here is the breadth of the catalogue at one price, and honest per-clip pricing.

The honest limits of this tool

A page that claims a free tool has no limits is not telling you the whole story. These are the real ones.

  • Clips are short. 5 to 10 seconds is the norm. Anything longer is several clips edited together.
  • Renders are slow. 30 to 120 seconds per clip is normal, and premium models queue at busy times.
  • Motion is the hard part. Hands, text and complex physics still break on the cheaper models.
  • Credits are real money. Test on the cheapest model that can answer the question before rendering a long take.
  • No video editing here. This generates clips, it does not cut them into a timeline.

Frequently Asked Questions

The tool is free to use, but video rendering uses credits because every clip costs real GPU time. The cheapest model, Wan 2.6, costs about 475 credits for a 5 second 720p clip, or 190 at 480p. If a render fails, credits are refunded automatically.
