Across the six AI listing video tools verified for this guide on September 4, 2026, the published cost of one finished listing video runs from about $8.98 to about $24.50 on an annual plan. That range only covers half the category. Three of the six tools do not publish enough information on their own pricing pages to calculate what a single finished video costs, because they bill in credits without stating how many credits a video consumes.
This page lists every price read directly off each tool's own pricing page on the verification date, with the arithmetic shown. Where a number could not be verified from the vendor's own page, it is marked as not verifiable rather than estimated. ShowcaseVideos.ai publishes this guide and is listed on the same terms as everyone else, in alphabetical order, with no recommendation attached.
How cost per listing video is calculated here
The formula is the plan's monthly price divided by the number of finished listing videos that plan includes in a month. This is the same lens the Amplifiles roundup of AI real estate video tools applies, and it is the only comparison that survives contact with six different billing models.
Two rules keep it honest. Annual figures use the vendor's own stated annual rate, because that is the number most agents will actually pay, and the monthly rate is given alongside it. A tool that bills in credits gets a per video number only if its own page states what a video costs in credits. If it does not, the cell says so. Guessing a credit to video ratio would produce a table that looks complete and is quietly wrong, which is how most of the undated comparisons in this category go stale.
AutoReel
Prices verified: not verifiable on September 4, 2026. AutoReel's pricing page did not return plan names or figures on repeated fetches, so no price appears here. Anyone comparing on cost should open that page directly before deciding.
What its own pages do confirm: annual billing is described as up to 30% off monthly, annual plans carry five more photos per video and two more visual effects per video than the monthly equivalent, and annual rollover runs a full year against three months on monthly. The free trial is three fully watermark free videos.
Cost per listing video: not calculable from published information.
BetterSpace
Plans verified September 4, 2026 from the BetterSpace pricing page:
- Free, $0 a month, 2 free videos per month, no credit card required
- Lite, $29 a month, 100 credits, up to 15 photos per video, 3 days free
- Starter, $49 a month, 200 credits, up to 20 photos per video
- Growth, $89 a month, 400 credits, up to 2 team members, social post scheduling
- Pro, $159 a month, 800 credits, up to 3 team members
Virtual staging is included on the paid tiers and the product integrates with Claude and ChatGPT. No annual rate is shown on the pricing page.
Cost per listing video: not calculable. The page states a monthly credit allowance but not how many credits one video consumes. The Amplifiles roundup separately flagged that BetterSpace shows three different structures across its own site and third party listings, ranging from $3.97 per video to $19 a month to $89 a month, and recommended checking the signup flow before committing. That matched what this verification pass found, so treat any single published BetterSpace figure with care.
HeyGen
Plans verified September 4, 2026 from the HeyGen pricing page:
- Free, $0 a month, 3 videos per month, videos up to 1 minute, watermarked
- Creator, $29 a month, 600 credits a month, watermark removed, videos up to 30 minutes, 1080p export
- Pro, $49 a month, 1,000 credits a month, videos up to 30 minutes, 4K export
- Business, $149 a month plus $20 per seat, 1,500 credits a month, videos up to 60 minutes, 5 custom video avatars
Annual rates are referenced but the per month annual figure is not displayed on the page, so none is published here. HeyGen's own definition of a credit is that "the number of credits a video or asset uses can vary based on which AI model is used, video duration, and the complexity of the generation."
Cost per listing video: not calculable, by the vendor's own description of variable credit consumption. HeyGen is also a general avatar and spokesperson video platform rather than a listing tool. Its pricing page names no real estate specific feature, which matters if you are comparing on what arrives at the end of the render.
Reel-E
Plans verified September 4, 2026 from the Reel-E pricing page, which prices in listings rather than credits:
- Essential, $59 a month or $44 a month billed annually, 3 listings a month rolling over up to 9, 20 photos per listing, 10 photo edits or stagings, 5 AI cinematic activations, 1080p
- Growth, $129 a month or $97 a month billed annually, 10 listings a month rolling over up to 30, 40 photos per listing, 20 edits, 8 activations, individual clip download
- Pro, $599 a month or $449 a month billed annually, 50 listings a month rolling over up to 150, 4K output, 2x priority rendering
All three formats, 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1, are included per listing with no extra per video fee. Annual billing is stated as a 25% saving. Plans are month to month with no contract.
Cost per listing video: $14.67 on Essential annual, $9.70 on Growth annual, $8.98 on Pro annual. At monthly rates that becomes $19.67, $12.90 and $11.98. Reel-E publishes the lowest calculable cost per listing of any tool in this guide.
ShowcaseVideos.ai
Plans verified September 4, 2026 from the ShowcaseVideos.ai pricing page, which prices in credits and publishes the credit cost of a video:
- Agent, $59 a month or $49 a month billed annually at $588 a year, 190 credits, stated as about 2 videos a month, single seat, 16:9 delivery
- Office, $239 a month or $199 a month billed annually at $2,388 a year, 780 credits, stated as about 9 videos a month, up to 5 seats sharing one credit pool, adds 9:16 and 1:1 cuts
- Brokerage, $699 a month or $599 a month billed annually at $7,188 a year, 2,350 credits, stated as about 27 videos a month, up to 25 seats, adds an AI composed original score
A typical listing video is published as about 86 credits, broken out as 18 for the base render, 7 for each AI motion hero shot, 1 per virtually staged room, 6 for a vertical cut, 4 for a square cut and 4 for an original score. Plan credits roll over for 2 months and purchased top up credits never expire. Top up packs start at $20 and fall to about $0.26 a credit at the largest size. The free first video takes no card, uses every photo in the listing and carries a watermark. Listings import from Zillow and Redfin URLs, not from arbitrary MLS links.
Cost per listing video: $24.50 on Agent annual, $22.11 on Office annual, $22.19 on Brokerage annual. At monthly rates that becomes $29.50, $26.56 and $25.89. A Beta discount of 50% for a full year was rendering on the pricing page on the verification date, which halves the first year figures for accounts opened while it runs.
vProp
Plans verified September 4, 2026 from the vProp pricing page:
- Free, $0, 5 free videos at signup with a watermark, 8 virtual stagings, 5 marketing packages, no card required
- Starter, $19 a month, 10 monthly credits, watermark free
- Standard, $49 a month, 30 monthly credits, 1 month credit rollover
- Pro, $229 a month, 200 monthly credits, team seats up to 10, up to 3 months rollover on annual
vProp also sells video packs outright: 1 video for $19, 5 videos for $85 which works out at $17 each, and 10 videos for $150 which works out at $15 each, valid for 12 months from purchase. The product is built around an AI script, a voice and an avatar rather than around a photo to video render.
Cost per listing video: $15 to $19 on the pay as you go packs, which is the only figure the page states in videos rather than credits. The subscription tiers publish a credit allowance without a credits per video figure, so those tiers are not calculable on the same basis.
What actually moves the number you pay
Photo caps decide which listings fit
A 6 photo cap and a 40 photo cap are different products at the same headline price. BetterSpace Lite allows up to 15 photos per video and Starter up to 20. Reel-E allows 20 on Essential and 40 on Growth and Pro. ShowcaseVideos.ai accepts up to 30 photos in a job and applies no separate photo cap to its free trial video. If your average listing runs 28 images, a tier that caps at 15 cannot render it at all.
What counts as one video
Reel-E includes all three aspect ratios in a listing at no extra charge. ShowcaseVideos.ai bills the vertical and square cuts as additional credits on top of the base render, 6 and 4 respectively, and restricts them to Office and above. HeyGen and vProp price in credits without publishing a per format breakdown. A social first agent who needs a 9:16 cut on every listing should compare the all in figure rather than the base one.
Rollover is a real discount for uneven months
Listing volume is seasonal and rollover is the term that decides whether a quiet February is wasted money. AutoReel states a full year of rollover on annual plans against three months on monthly. Reel-E rolls unused listings up to three times the monthly allowance. ShowcaseVideos.ai rolls plan credits for two months and never expires purchased top ups. vProp gives one month on Standard.
Free tiers are not equivalent
BetterSpace offers 2 free videos every month on an ongoing basis with no card. vProp gives 5 free watermarked videos at signup. HeyGen allows 3 watermarked videos a month capped at one minute. ShowcaseVideos.ai gives one free video with a watermark and no photo cap. Reel-E and AutoReel run trials rather than permanent free tiers, with AutoReel's stated as three watermark free videos.
Using this for your own volume
Take your real listing count for the last twelve months and divide by twelve rather than using your best month. Most agents land between two and six listings a month, which sits below the break even point of every high volume tier in this guide. At that volume a pay as you go pack or an entry tier usually beats a plan you cannot fill, and several vendors say so on their own pages.
Then check the three things that are not price. What photo count your typical listing carries, whether you need a vertical cut on every property, and whether the tool produces the specific output you are being paid to deliver. A per video cost is only comparable between tools that produce a comparable video. Our category overview of real estate video software covers what the different tool types actually output, and the head to head write ups on ShowcaseVideos.ai against Reel-E and ShowcaseVideos.ai against BetterSpace go further into feature level differences than a pricing page can.
Verification and corrections
Every figure above was read off the named vendor page on September 4, 2026. Pricing in this category changes without announcement, and undated comparison tables are the main reason agents budget from stale numbers. This page is re-verified on a monthly cycle and carries the verification date at the top of every entry for that reason. If a price here is wrong or out of date, tell us and it gets corrected on the page rather than left to age.
Frequently asked questions
What does an AI listing video actually cost in 2026?
Among tools that publish enough to calculate it, between about $8.98 and $24.50 per finished video on an annual plan, verified September 4, 2026. Pay as you go pricing sits higher per video, at $15 to $19 on vProp's packs.
Why can't cost per video be calculated for every tool?
Three of the six tools here bill in monthly credits without publishing how many credits one video consumes. HeyGen states directly that credit consumption varies by model, duration and complexity, so no fixed per video figure exists to publish.
Is the cheapest tool per video the right choice?
Only if the output is comparable. Photo caps, included aspect ratios, virtual staging allowances and whether the tool renders from listing photos or from an AI avatar all change what you receive for the money, and those differences are larger than the price gap in several cases.
Do annual plans save enough to be worth the commitment?
The stated savings run from about 17% to 30% depending on the vendor, and several also improve rollover, photo counts or effect allowances on annual. The commitment only pays if your twelve month average listing count fills the allowance.
How often is this guide re-verified?
Monthly, with each entry carrying the date its figures were read off the vendor's own page. Any figure a vendor did not publish is marked as not verifiable rather than estimated from a third party.
