General FAQ
If you purchase a subscription or credit pack, the videos you create are yours, and you hold full commercial rights.
Users without either purchase may only use generated videos for personal, non-commercial purposes.
Credits are your currency on Magic Hour. They're deducted from your balance as you create images and videos.
For some modes, we charge more because they're more computationally expensive.
When you're creating an image or video, we will always tell you exactly how many credits the generation will cost before you click render.
Pricing
Your projects are not public to other users. Magic Hour does not use your prompts, uploads, or generated outputs to train AI models, and Magic Hour personnel do not routinely review customer content.
Automated systems and contracted service providers process content only to provide, secure, and support the service. Magic Hour may use aggregated or de-identified usage data that excludes your prompts, uploads, and outputs to debug and improve the product. Authorized personnel access is limited to support, security, legal, or policy needs. Retention varies by workflow, and you can delete saved assets from your account. Download anything you want to keep first.
Yes, you retain full ownership, including copyright and intellectual property rights, for all assets you generate. Paid subscribers and credit-pack customers are granted commercial usage rights.
Users without a subscription or credit-pack purchase may use generated content for personal, non-commercial purposes only.
New subscriptions and renewals are eligible for a full refund within 7 days of payment if fewer than 400 credits have been used since that payment. Credit pack purchases are eligible for a full refund if requested within 7 days of purchase and none of the credits from that pack have been used.
Refunds are limited to one approved refund per customer, except for duplicate charges and refunds required by law. Abusive requests and accounts that violate our Terms of Service are ineligible. Request a refund at support@magichour.ai. Refunds may take 5–10 business days to appear.
Free accounts may receive starter credits and account-specific ways to earn more rewards. Check your account for your current credit balance and available rewards.
Paid plans include more creation capacity and premium features for creators and teams who need higher volume. Your account and plan pages show the credits and rewards available to you.
When you run out of credits, you have three options:
- You can wait for your next billing cycle to start. You can see when your next billing cycle starts in Next Invoice in My Plan.
- You can purchase credit packs, which are one-time credit purchases in Pricing. This allows you to "top up" your plan whenever you run out.
- You can start a new plan. If you switch from a monthly plan to a yearly plan or vice-versa, the plan will start immediately. If you switch from a monthly plan to a different monthly plan or a yearly plan to a different yearly plan, your plan will start at the end of your billing cycle. However, if you want to start it immediately, you can click Upgrade Now in My Plan.

Image-to-Video
Magic Hour makes it simple in three steps — no video editing skills or software downloads required. Everything runs in your browser:
- Upload your image — any photo, picture, or AI-generated image (PNG, JPG, WEBP, HEIC, and more).
- Type a prompt — describe the motion or style you want, like "camera slowly pans right" or "hair blowing in the wind."
- Generate and download — click Render Video, then download your MP4 when it's ready.

Lip Sync
Yes. Lip sync works on real talking-head footage and on AI avatar / virtual influencer clips when a face is clearly visible. Upload the avatar video, add your audio (or a dubbed track), and generate a synced MP4 for ads, education, or social.
Starting from a still portrait? Create motion first with AI talking photo or image to video, then run lip sync on the result.
Upload a video with a visible face and an audio file with the speech you want to sync. Click Generate and the AI analyzes the audio waveform and maps mouth shapes frame by frame onto the face in your video. The result is a natural, seamless lip-synced video you can download as MP4. The entire process takes seconds to minutes depending on video length.
Only have a still photo? Turn it into a video first with our image to video tool, then lip sync the result.
Yes! You can either:
- Record your own audio separately and upload it to synchronize with your video.
- Use AI-generated voices or voice cloning in an online voice cloning tool for dubbing.
You can sync:
- Real human videos (talking head, interviews, vlogs, ads)
- AI-generated avatars (for virtual influencers, marketing, and education)
- Animated characters (for lip-synced storytelling and dubbing)\u2014best results with human-like characters (e.g. Pixar style)
For best results, use video with a single visible face, front-facing, with good lighting.
Absolutely. Lip Sync AI is one of the most powerful tools for video dubbing and translation. Upload your video and a translated audio track, and the AI will re-sync lip movements to match the new language. This is ideal for:
- Content localization (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, movies)
- E-learning and training videos
- Marketing and advertisements
- Dialogue replacement without reshooting
Yes. We offer a robust API for developers and businesses. Full documentation is available at docs.magichour.ai, allowing you to integrate lip sync capabilities directly into your applications or workflows. You can get started with the API for free.
