About Pika Labs
Pika is a generative media platform for video, image and audio at pika.art. Relaunched in September 2026 as a single workspace, it places leading third party generation models behind one interface alongside Pika's own models, so a creator can produce a clip, generate or edit stills and add sound without switching tools. Pika Soundtrack, the studio's own audio model, turns a video into a synchronized full scene soundscape.
It suits independent creators, marketing teams and small studios that want to run the same prompt through several models and keep the results in one project. Generations run in parallel, with the number of concurrent video and image or audio jobs rising by plan, and no output carries a watermark on any tier. A developer API is available at dev.pika.art, with member pricing through an API Club.
Pika publishes credit based plans. Free costs nothing and includes no monthly credits; credits are bought in packs. Starter is $10 per month, or $8 per month billed annually, for 900 credits. Creator is $35 per month, or $28 annually, for 3,150 credits and a commercial license. Fancy starts at $95 per month, or $76 annually, for 8,550 credits with unlimited parallel generations and a priority queue, and scales to $880 per month at higher credit tiers, with early access to new models from the $440 tier. Enterprise plans carry custom credit volumes and dedicated support.
The September 2026 relaunch changed Pika from a single model video tool into a multi model platform, so older reviews of its earlier effects features describe a different product.
