LTX Studio pricing, actually explained
LTX Studio's ladder hides two catches at the entry tier: personal use only, and none of the premium models. Here is every tier, where the locks sit, and what the same money buys elsewhere.

How LTX Studio pricing works
LTX Studio is a filmmaking suite first and a model buffet second: storyboards, shot planning and consistent scene tooling wrapped around Lightricks' own very cheap LTX models. The pricing ladder gates twice. Commercial use arrives at the $28 Standard tier, and the marquee third-party models arrive in stages: Kling and Seedance at Standard, Veo 3.1 not until the $100 Pro tier. So the realistic price depends entirely on what you came for: $12 if you want the LTX model and the suite for personal projects, $28 for commercial work, and three figures if Veo 3.1 in this interface is the requirement.
The fine print
- The Lite tier is personal-use only: commercial rights start at Standard, $28/month on annual billing.
- Premium models are tier-gated twice: Kling and Seedance arrive at Standard, Veo 3.1 only at Pro ($100+).
- LTX's own API prices LTX 2.3 Fast at $0.06 per second at 1080p, the cheapest full-HD rate in our whole comparison.
- The storyboarding and film-planning suite is the actual differentiator, not the model list.
Our take
For structured film projects, the planning tools are genuinely differentiated and the in-house LTX model is the cheapest 1080p generator on the market. The pinch is the double gating: creators who assume the $12 tier includes commercial rights or premium models discover the real price is 2x to 8x higher.
Whatever you pick, remember the rule from our AI video cost calculator: the prompt is free, the retries are not. A detailed prompt stretches any plan further than any tier upgrade.
