"The camera performs a slow, cinematic 'hero' orbit (arc shot) around the statue. As the perspective shifts, the sun dips lower, causing a lens flare to sweep across the frame. The city lights in the background begin to twinkle on one by one."

Questions, answered
Everything you need to know about generating AI videos with Addis Vids — for free, without a credit card, and paying in Birr.
Can I generate AI videos for free?
Yes. Every new Addis Vids account gets free credits the moment you sign up, with no credit card required, so you can create real text-to-video and image-to-video clips at no cost.
How can I make AI videos without dollars or a credit card?
Addis Vids is built for Ethiopia. You start free with no card, and when you need more credits you pay in Ethiopian Birr using telebirr, CBE, and other local banks — no US dollars or international card needed.
How do I pay in Ethiopia?
Choose a credit pack, send the amount with telebirr, CBE Birr, or Bank of Abyssinia, and upload your transfer screenshot. Your credits are approved and added in seconds.
What kinds of videos can I create?
Four modes: text-to-video (describe a scene), image-to-video (animate a photo), first-and-last-frame (smooth transition between two images), and video-to-video (restyle a clip you upload) — in vertical, square, or widescreen.
Does Addis Vids work in Amharic?
Yes. The interface is available in both Amharic and English, so you can create comfortably in your preferred language.
Can I generate AI images too, not just videos?
Yes. Addis Vids has text-to-image and image-to-image modes running Google Nano Banana, OpenAI GPT Image 2 and xAI Grok Imagine Image 2, paid from the same Birr credit balance.
Which AI models does Addis Vids use?
Google Veo 3.1 (Standard, Fast and Lite), Gemini Omni 1.1, Nano Banana, xAI Grok Imagine Video and Image, and OpenAI GPT Image 2 — all behind one interface, with the credit cost shown before every generation.
Can I edit an existing video with AI?
Yes. Video-to-video mode re-renders an uploaded clip (up to 8 seconds) from a text instruction, and reference-to-video keeps a person, product or mascot consistent across new clips.
How much does it cost?
Free to start with signup credits. After that, one-time credit packages priced in Birr — no subscription, no automatic charges, and failed generations are refunded. Live prices are on the Pricing page.
Is there an API for developers?
Yes. A REST API lets apps and agencies generate videos and images with an API key, billed from the same Birr credits. Contact support to get a key.
