Pros and cons

LTX Studio

Pros

  • Covers the whole workflow from script and storyboard to timeline editing and sound in one place.
  • Elements keep characters and locations consistent across scenes.
  • Access to both Lightricks' LTX models and partner models such as Veo 3.1 and Kling on paid tiers.
  • Free plan lets new users test the product, and the underlying LTX-2 model has open weights.
  • Enterprise tier offers SSO, SOC2/ISO/GDPR compliance and custom model training.

Cons

  • Free plan gives only 800 one-time credits and is limited to personal use.
  • Premium models such as Veo 3.1 are restricted to the $125 Pro plan.
  • No mobile app; desktop browser only.
  • Credit-based metering makes the cost per video depend on the model and action chosen.

Vidu

Pros

  • Reference to Video with a saved My References library helps keep characters and props consistent.
  • Supports text, image and reference inputs, plus first and last frame control.
  • Free credits let users test the product before paying.
  • Public API with published per-second pricing for each model and resolution.
  • Available on web, iOS, Android and a CLI.

Cons

  • Plan prices are not visible without loading the pricing page, and third-party sources disagree on them.
  • Credit costs vary by model and resolution, so per-video cost is hard to predict; 4K Q4 preview output costs 78 credits per second in the API.
  • CostBench reports user complaints about credits being spent on failed renders in the consumer product, and a 2.2/5 Trustpilot score from 17 reviews.
  • Clip generation only; scripting, sequencing and final mixing need other tools.
