For smaller workloads with one developer seat.
For teams building video into their product.
For larger workloads and tailored agreements.
Pay once for the original video's duration and resolution. All streaming quality levels are included, with no codec, frame-rate, or per-title surcharge.

Preparing one streaming quality or several costs the same. Optional static renditions and standalone transcodings have their own output-minute prices below.

Per output minute. Video multipliers do not apply.
Multiply the transcoding rate above by each setting below. Static renditions always use H.264 with per-title included, so only the frame-rate multiplier applies to their listed price.
Applies to every codec and resolution.
Adjusts quality to suit each video.
Transcodings use the finished video's duration. Static renditions use the original video's duration for each file. Two versions of a 10-minute video add 20 billable minutes.
Resolution tiers use pixel count in either orientation: SD ≤ 720 × 576; HD ≤ 1920 × 1080; 2K ≤ 2560 × 1440; 4K / UHD above that. 720p is HD. Video rates cover outputs up to 4K.
Captions use input minutes. Thumbnails use the number of images published.
$0.0060 / input minute
$0.0050 / input minute, per language
$0.0005 / successfully published thumbnail
The same rate applies to JPEG, WebP and sprite cells, at any supported size. VTT files have no extra charge.

USD / month
No monthly dollar credit. Pay for the processing you use.
Start buildingThis estimate covers processing. External-storage egress is charged separately after your included allowance. Welcome credit is not deducted. Custom agreements can adjust rates and limits.
Estimate only. Durations round up to a whole second. Each charge rounds up to $0.0001. Per-video rounding can change the total. Storage and CDN costs are billed separately by your providers.
Pay as you go suits companies with smaller workloads that need one developer seat. It has no monthly fee. Team costs $50 per month, includes $50 in monthly credit, and supports five seats with lower streaming preparation rates. Public transcoding and static rendition prices are the same on both plans. Choose Custom for agreed rates, credits, and limits tailored to your workload.
Custom plans start from $2,000 USD per month. We can agree on every processing rate and multiplier for your team, along with monthly credit and limits.
An input minute is a minute of your original video. Streaming preparation is charged once, using the input's resolution tier. Automatic streaming generation and execution retries are included, so streaming quality levels do not multiply that charge.
No. Streaming preparation is billed once for the original INPUT duration and resolution. A 10-minute HD video costs 10 HD input minutes, whether Chunkify prepares one or several streaming renditions. Those streaming outputs are included. Optional generated static renditions have their own separate output-minute charge.
Each generated static rendition adds a separate charge at its output resolution and frame rate, using the original input duration. Static renditions use H.264 with per-title optimization; the static prices above already include it. For a 10-minute video, a 1080p MP4 and a 720p MP4 each add 10 HD output minutes. Automatic streaming renditions are included in preparation and do not add static output charges.
Transcoding is billed per minute of encoded output. Multiply the resolution rate by the output codec, frame-rate and per-title factors. A 90-second encoded file counts as 1.5 output minutes. Audio-only transcoding costs $0.0005 per output minute without video multipliers.
Transcription costs $0.0060 per input minute and includes audio preparation and WebVTT output. Translation costs $0.0050 per input minute for each target language. Translating a 10-minute caption into three languages costs $0.15 before any applicable discount. Caption requests use your dollar credits.
Dollar credits pay for streaming preparation, transcoding jobs, static renditions, thumbnails, caption transcription, translation, and external-storage egress. Team's monthly credit is used before welcome credit or purchased wallet funds. Billing shows your current plan, balances, and egress allowance.
Monthly credit expires at the end of its billing period and does not roll over. Welcome credit and purchased wallet funds do not expire.
Verify your work email and complete onboarding to receive $10 in welcome credit on Pay as you go. The offer is available once per company domain, across accounts and teams, and has no expiry. Personal and disposable email addresses are not supported for signup.
Add funds to your wallet to continue processing. Team usage beyond its monthly credit uses the same Team rates. Requests require enough available credit to cover their cost before processing starts.
Pay as you go includes 50 GiB each month and Team includes 100 GiB, shared across all projects. Additional transfer to R2 or other external storage costs $0.09/GiB. AWS S3 and Chunkify temporary storage transfers are free. Egress includes preview HLS, streaming and static renditions, Transcoding files, thumbnails, posters, and captions. Included egress resets monthly in UTC without rollover. Custom allowances and rates are agreed per team.
Chunkify charges for preparation and the outputs you request. Your chosen storage and CDN providers bill their own storage and delivery charges. More views do not repeat the preparation charge. Chunkify's temporary outputs are for testing and expire after 24 hours.
Processing charges are released for failed assets or transcoding jobs. External-storage outputs already published still count toward egress usage.
Durations round up to the next whole second, with no minimum duration charge. Transcoding uses the encoded output duration; static renditions use the original input duration. Each charge rounds up to $0.0001. A 60.1-second HD input on Team is billed as 61 seconds, costing $0.0204 for streaming preparation.
