Your next commercial costs 80% less

The AI video ROI calculator takes three inputs — your current cost per finished video, how many you produce each quarter, and the channel they run on — and estimates your savings and added output versus traditional production. It’s a directional model built to size a business case, not a binding quote. See exact tiers on our pricing page.

Three core inputs: your current cost per finished video, how many videos you produce per quarter, and where they run. One optional input sharpens the result — your format mix, for example a brand commercial versus an Amazon listing video. If you’re unsure of the numbers, our project planner helps you gather them cleanly first. Start with the project planner.

The Midjourney, Veo, Kling, and Seedance pipeline compresses pre-production and production into days instead of weeks, so the same Creative Director and the same brand bar cost less to deliver. The result is a finished video well below traditional production at comparable craft — a leaner process, not a compromise on quality.

No. It’s a planning estimate only. A real quote follows a 30-minute discovery call and a scoping pass, and reaches you within 48 hours. Use the calculator’s number to build your internal business case with leadership or finance, then talk to us to turn it into an exact proposal. Start on the get started page, with tiers on pricing.

The numbers are based on typical ArcaneWiz engagements and shown as ranges, not promises — we model a conservative 70–80% cost reduction and 75–85% timeline compression across beauty, SaaS, automotive, and CPG. Your real figure depends on format mix and revision rounds, so we prefer fair bands over flattering absolutes. See how it plays out in our case studies.

How much can AI video pricing reduce my commercial production costs?

AI video pricing at ArcaneWiz cuts production costs by 70–80% versus traditional broadcast workflows, with 75–85% timeline compression. One DTC beauty brand spent $180K per hero spot before switching; ArcaneWiz delivered four at broadcast quality for under $50K total in nine days, verified through median project data across beauty, SaaS, automotive, and CPG engagements.

It depends on the format. An Amazon listing video, for example, sits in a much lower band than a broadcast brand commercial, which is scoped individually and can’t be flattened into one figure. We won’t invent flat rates here — you’ll find the full tiers on our pricing page, and format-specific bands on Amazon listing videos.

Yes, materially. Time-to-market carries real financial value: when a campaign goes live weeks earlier, the budget starts converting earlier. We frame this as a short-time-to-market premium — high output without giving up craft — not a discount. ROI is built from output, time-to-market, and cost at comparable craft, in that order. See the impact in our case studies.

Usually a few videos per quarter is enough to cross break-even — the calculator shows you exactly where that point sits. Retainer economics improve the picture further from three deliveries a quarter and up, because the fixed cost spreads across more output. The larger your recurring volume, the faster ROI compounds. Find retainer tiers on our pricing page.

Yes. It models each format separately and combines the results into one picture. A bundle usually wins economically — product photography, listing video, and product commercial together — over buying format by format, especially for larger Amazon sellers. That way you see aggregate ROI, not just a single line item. Details on this format live on Amazon listing videos.

Take the number into a discovery call. There we pressure-test the assumptions — base cost, volume, and mix — and turn the estimate into a scoped, priced proposal. The calculator is built to open and sharpen that conversation, not replace it: the real value comes when we fit the model to your specific reality. Book a call on the get started page.

A fair trade-off to weigh. An in-house video team means salaries, tooling, and capacity that sits idle between campaigns — a fixed cost that runs even when nothing is in production. An on-demand model turns that into a per-project cost: you pay for output, not availability. The calculator makes the comparison concrete so the decision rests on numbers, not gut feel. See tiers on pricing and examples in case studies.

Send the contact form or a WhatsApp Business message and we’ll reply the same business day. From there: a 30-minute discovery call, then a priced proposal within 48 hours. The call is led by the Creative Director, not a sales rep — so from the first conversation you’re talking to the person who will lead the production. Start on the get started page.
