Was ist Magic Hour?
Magic Hour bundles more than 100 AI video and image tools — face swap, lip sync, talking-photo animation, text-to-video, image-to-video, and video-to-video restyling — into a single browser-based editor. There's nothing to install: pick a tool, upload or describe your source material, and Magic Hour renders the output using credits from your plan.
It's aimed at creators and marketers who need short-form video content without a full production pipeline — turning a product photo into an animated clip, dubbing a talking-head video into a new voice with matched lip movement, or generating a video straight from a text prompt. The platform is Y Combinator-backed and says it's used by more than 3 million creators.
Every plan runs on an annual credit allowance rather than a flat per-video price: the Creator plan ($10/mo, billed annually) includes 120,000 credits (roughly 1.4 hours of video or 24,000 images) at 1024px export; Pro ($25/mo) steps up to 300,000 credits and 1472px output; Business ($66/mo) includes 840,000 credits, 4K export, and unlimited concurrent generations. All paid plans include watermark-free exports and commercial-use rights, and API access is included at the same usage levels as your plan.
