Test the idea free in Google Flow, pay for Runway to get several video models in one place, and use HeyGen for talking-presenter videos.

Every Google account gets 50 free Flow credits a day, enough for five 8-second Veo clips; Runway's Standard plan is $12 a month billed yearly and runs its own Gen-4.5 beside Kling and Seedance. Adobe Firefly trains on licensed content, the safe pick for client work. For avatars, HeyGen's Creator plan at $29 a month removes the watermark; make an avatar only of yourself or of someone who has given consent.
