Pricing explained · Updated 26 Oct 2026
Answer: HappyHorse 1.1 text-to-video and image-to-video are listed at 338 credits per run. The Best Value plan is $15 / month for 900 credits (yearly display about $13 / mo billed $156 / yr). 900 ÷ 338 ≈ 2.66, so budget 2 full 1.1 clips from that monthly allotment if you spend it only on 1.1. A third 1.1 needs a top-up.
| Item | Number |
|---|---|
| HappyHorse 1.1 T2V | 338 cr |
| HappyHorse 1.1 I2V | 338 cr |
| Best Value monthly | $15 / 900 cr |
| Yearly Best Value | $13 / mo at $156 / yr |
| Example credit pack | $20 / 1000 cr (credits never expire on that card) |
| Free | $0 entry; packs/plans for volume |
Happy Horse’s pricing page is a long multi-model catalog. Cheap image rows sit next to expensive video rows. The $15 plan is not “unlimited HappyHorse.” It is 900 credits, and 1.1 spends 338 of them every time.
Runway Standard sits near $15 / mo monthly (~$12 annual) with a suite allotment and credits-per-seconds pricing for its video models. Same dollar sticker, different product shape: suite + timeline vs catalog + credit meter.
Use Runway when you want that suite. Use Happy Horse’s $15 when you specifically want this catalog and you have already accepted the 338 burn.
Treat the monthly allotment as two careful 1.1 takes, not a binge.
Stay on Free until the UI and queue feel familiar. When you are ready for a real 1.1, either subscribe to Best Value for a month of two careful clips, or buy the $20 pack if you want credits that do not reset.
Launch week needs two HappyHorse 1.1 hero loops. You take $15 / 900. Hero A costs 338. Hero B costs 338. You have 224 credits — enough for a still or a cheap video row, not a third 1.1. Mid-week the client asks for a third loop; you buy $20 / 1000 instead of sliding the plan to a higher monthly tier you will not finish. End of month, unused monthly credits would have reset — the pack leftovers stay for the next brief.
Open the pricing model table, confirm 338 on HappyHorse 1.1, then take the $15 plan only if two clips this month is enough — otherwise take the $20 pack and keep the leftover for the next week.
