Pros and cons

Ray32

Pros

  • One-time credit packs with no subscription, and credits that do not expire
  • Supports up to 16 keyframes, HDR and 16-bit EXR export from Luma's Ray 3.2 model
  • Four workflows in one web interface, including Video Edit and Reframe
  • States clearly that it is independent of Luma AI
  • Downloads are MP4 without watermarks

Cons

  • Operating company, address and legal jurisdiction are not disclosed
  • A 10-second 1080p text-to-video clip costs 180 credits, more than the 160-credit Starter pack
  • Text and image clips are limited to 10 seconds
  • No free tier and no public API of its own
  • Generated content is subject to Luma AI's terms, and the site's own terms do not cover commercial use

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.
