Kitty AI Studio Complete Guide: Every Tool, Price and Tip

Kitty AI Studio is the pay-per-use AI studio on druidcat.com. You pick a tool, upload a picture or type a prompt, and pay for that one job from your credit balance. 1 credit is $0.01 and there is no subscription. Unlike services like Runpod that require technical knowledge, everything runs in your browser with nothing to install.

In November 2026 the studio was rebuilt: a new hub, eight new tools, a faster LTX 2.5, batches of up to 16 pictures and new prices. This guide covers all of it, with the price and typical time of every tool.

Kitty AI Studio at a Glance

  • More than 50 tools for video, images, editing, talking avatars, upscaling and audio.
  • Two kinds of models: open models on our own GPUs, and partner models such as Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0 and Seedance.
  • Pay per job: the tool page shows the exact price before you start. New accounts get a $0.20 welcome credit, valid for 7 days.
  • Batches: seven image tools make up to 16 pictures in one run (MOSS Image up to 12), and each extra picture costs less.
  • 24-hour storage: inputs and results are deleted from our servers after 24 hours, so download what you want to keep.
  • A free desktop editor: the Kitty app puts the same models inside a video editor with an AI agent.

The New Hub

Everything starts at druidcat.com/kitty-ai-studio. The hub has:

  • Search: type “upscale”, “lip sync” or a model name.
  • Category chips: Video, Images, Edit & Swap, Talking & Motion, Enhance & Upscale and Audio.
  • A filter to show only “Our GPUs” or only “Partner models”.
  • Light and dark mode.
  • A short preview on every card, with the price and the typical time.

Click a card to open the tool. Each tool page has its own inputs and shows the price for your settings on the button before you generate.

Our GPUs vs Partner Models

Our GPUs. Open models that we run ourselves on serverless GPUs of the RTX 5090 class: LTX 2.5, the H3 tools from MiniMax, Z-Image, Qwen Image 2.1, Krea 2, MOSS Image, Anima, SCAIL-2, InfiniteTalk, SeedVR2, the other upscalers and the audio tools. Many of them accept your own LoRA files.

Partner models. Veo 3.1 (Google), Kling 3.0 (Kuaishou), Seedance 2.0 and 2.5 (ByteDance), Wan 3.0 and Wan 2.7 (Alibaba), GPT Image 2.5, Nano Banana 2.1 (Google) and OmniHuman 2.0 run through the partners’ APIs at their usual prices.

One thing to know about our GPUs: they are serverless, so the first job after a quiet period can take a few minutes longer while a GPU starts. The times in this guide are typical times on a warm GPU, not promises.

Credits and Prices

  • 1 credit = $0.01. Top-ups start at $5.
  • Welcome credit: $0.20 on signup, valid for 7 days. That covers a first picture, for example one Qwen Image 2.1 or Krea 2 Turbo image.
  • Paid credits are valid for about 12 months. No monthly fee.
  • How a price is built: a fixed part per job plus a part per picture or per second, rounded up to a whole cent. The tool page shows the exact total before you pay.
Example jobPrice
One Qwen Image 2.1 picture$0.14
16 Z-Image Turbo pictures in one run$0.50
5-second LTX 2.5 clip with sound (1 MP)$0.35
4-second H3 Reference to Video clip$0.47
5-second MiniMax H3 talking video$0.61
Picture upscaled to 4K with SeedVR2$0.36
Song split into dialogue, music and effects$0.13

Batches: Up to 16 Pictures per Run

Seven image tools make several pictures in one run. The fixed part of the price is paid once per run, so the price per picture drops as the batch grows:

Tool1 pictureBiggest batchPer picture
Z-Image Turbo$0.1716 for $0.50$0.031
Krea 2 Turbo$0.1516 for $0.66$0.041
Krea 2 GonzoLomo$0.2716 for $0.54$0.034
Krea 2 Ultra Realistic$0.3716 for $4.27$0.267
Z-Image Detailed$0.3116 for $3.31$0.207
MOSS Image$0.2612 for $1.91$0.159
Film Grain$0.1116 for $0.20$0.013

Qwen Image 2.1, Anima and the edit and upscale tools make one picture per run.


New in November 2026

Eight new tools

  • Qwen Person Swap ($0.34): puts the person from one photo into another photo. You give it the scene and one character photo, optionally a second character, choose “body” or “head” mode, and can switch on fast mode or add a prompt. About 2 minutes.
  • Image Layers ($0.38): splits one picture into separate layers, for example background, subject and objects, so you can edit or animate them one by one. Input: the picture and a short description. About 2.5 minutes.
  • SolarRenderer ($0.93 per clip of about 4.5 seconds): a grey 3D blockout or structure clip plus one picture of the look you want becomes a finished cinematic shot that follows the blockout’s camera and layout. About 7 minutes.
  • H3 Reference to Video ($0.47 for the default 4 seconds): one or two reference pictures and a prompt become a 2 to 10 second clip. Optional looks: CinemaGrade (a graded film look) and Commercial 80s (a retro TV-commercial look). About 3 to 4 minutes.
  • H3 Extend ($2.30 per extension of about 4.5 seconds): continues an existing clip from its last frames in the same style. About 20 minutes.
  • H3 Long Take ($1.42 for an 8-second shot): one continuous shot guided by two reference pictures, with an optional end frame. About 11 minutes.
  • Stem Splitter ($0.13 per file): one audio file in, three files out: dialogue, music and effects. Usually done in under a minute.
  • Room Acoustics ($0.10 per file): places a dry voice or sound in a realistic room. You get the “wet” audio plus the room’s impulse response, and advanced users can pass their own room recipe. Takes seconds.

Updated tools

  • H3 Character Swap swaps the person in a video. New: you choose where in the clip the 5 to 15 second window starts, and you can switch on an automatic anchor frame (+$0.15). The studio then first makes a clean edited first frame with Qwen Image 2.1, which keeps the new character more consistent. You can also upload your own anchor frame.
  • LTX 2.5 (text to video, image to video, first and last frame) is faster: 6 sampling steps and hardware video encoding. The LTX 2.5 Upscaler goes up to 2.4 MP. Read the full LTX 2.5 guide.
  • Z-Image Turbo, Z-Image Detailed and Krea 2 GonzoLomo: the 4x “PiD” upscaled copy is now an optional switch, off by default, +$0.02 per picture.
  • Z-Image Detailed accepts an optional reference photo to match its look. It replaced the separate Z-Image from Reference tool.
  • MiniMax H3 Talking Video: the style dropdown moved to H3 Reference to Video.
  • Batches go up to 16 pictures per run (see above).

Retired tools and what replaced them

Some older tools are gone. LTX 2.3 is replaced by LTX 2.5, WAN Animate and Wan SCAIL by SCAIL-2, WAN 2.6 by Wan 3.0 and LTX 2.5, Nano Banana Pro by Nano Banana 2.1, Ideogram 4 by GPT Image 2.5 (for text in images), MagiHuman by MiniMax H3 Talking Video, InfiniteTalk and OmniHuman 2.0, and the old Qwen edit tools by Qwen Image 2.1, Qwen Image 2.1 Inpainting and Krea 2 Inpainting. Instagirl, SVI WAN 2.2, the Image and Video Enhancer and a few other older tools were retired too. The Music Video Creator page is retired as well: the free Kitty app replaces it.

Your Files Are Kept for 24 Hours

Everything you upload and every result stays on our servers for 24 hours. After that it is deleted automatically. Download each result you want to keep, and keep your own copies of inputs you plan to reuse, such as character pictures or LoRA files.

Use Your Own LoRA

Many of the tools on our GPUs accept your own LoRA files (.safetensors) for a consistent character or style: LTX 2.5 (two slots), Z-Image Turbo, Z-Image Detailed (up to three), Qwen Image 2.1 (two), the Krea 2 tools, MOSS Image, Anima, the inpainting tools, H3 Character Swap and MiniMax H3 Talking Video. The LoRA has to be made for the model you use. Our LoRA training guide shows how to make one.

The Kitty App: the Studio Inside a Video Editor

The free Kitty app for Windows 10 and 11 is a full video editor with a built-in AI agent, and it uses the same druidcat.com account and credits. Tell the agent what you want and it plans the shots as blocks on a “Kitty Agent” track, shows what each one costs and generates them with the studio’s models when you say OK. A finished generation replaces its block. It can analyse a song’s structure, place clips on the beat, add captions and make kinetic typography reels.

The app replaces the retired Music Video Creator. More in our guides: how to make a music video with the agent, how the AI editing agent works and the free editor’s features.

Tips for Better Results

  1. Draft cheap, finish sharp. Test a video prompt as a 5-second LTX 2.5 clip at 1 MP ($0.35). Only the keeper goes to 2 MP or through the LTX 2.5 Upscaler.
  2. Explore with a batch. 16 Z-Image Turbo pictures cost $0.50. Pick the best one and refine it.
  3. Leave the PiD switch off until you need a large file. It adds $0.02 per picture.
  4. Keep a character consistent. Start from one good reference picture, then use Qwen Image 2.1 edits (up to 5 photos), Qwen Person Swap, H3 Reference to Video or your own LoRA.
  5. Need readable text in a picture? Use GPT Image 2.5 for posters, labels and logos.
  6. Describe the sound in LTX 2.5 prompts. The model writes its own soundtrack from your words.
  7. Pick the right upscaler. Simple Upscale when nothing should change, SeedVR2 4K Upscale when you want new detail.
  8. Expect a slower first job after a quiet period, while a GPU starts.
  9. Download within 24 hours. After that, files are deleted.

FAQ

Is Kitty AI Studio free?

Signing up is free and you get a $0.20 welcome credit for 7 days. After that you pay per job from your credit balance. There is no subscription and no monthly fee.

What is the difference between “Our GPUs” and “Partner models”?

“Our GPUs” are open models we run on our own serverless GPUs (RTX 5090 class). “Partner models” such as Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0, Seedance, Wan, GPT Image 2.5, Nano Banana 2.1 and OmniHuman 2.0 run through the partners’ APIs at their usual prices.

How long are my files stored?

24 hours. Inputs and results are then deleted automatically, so download what you want to keep.

Do credits expire?

The $0.20 welcome credit is valid for 7 days. Paid credits are valid for about 12 months.

Why did my first job take longer?

Our GPUs are serverless. After a quiet period the first job waits a few minutes while a GPU starts. The next jobs run at the typical times.

Is there a desktop app?

Yes. The free Kitty app for Windows is a video editor with a built-in AI agent that uses the same models and the same credits.
