# Custom AI Video App: Pricing, Process & Examples

A **custom AI video app** is a tailored production workflow that turns a written brief into a finished, on-brand video file — built around one character style, one format, and one audience. CarlosVideo18+ runs this as a service: you submit an idea, we deliver a mastered clip in 7 days with revisions included, priced from $94 to $250.

## What People Actually Mean by "Custom AI Video App"

The phrase gets used for three different things, and the confusion wastes a lot of budget. Some searchers want a **software product** — a white-label mobile app or internal tool that generates clips on demand. Some want a **consumer subscription** with a custom-trained model. And most, once they explain the real job, want a **done-for-you video** that looks specific to their brand rather than something a template library spits out.

Only the third one is solved quickly and predictably. Buying or commissioning software means product discovery, model licensing, moderation policy, hosting, and months of development before a single frame renders. A subscription tool gives you a model everyone else already has. A production partner gives you a finished file with your name on it.

CarlosVideo18+ operates on that third path. We keep the "app" logic — a fixed input format, a fixed output format, a defined turnaround — but the pipeline behind it is run by people who edit, grade, mix, and check continuity. You bring the idea; we turn it into a finished clip.

## Options Compared

|  |  |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Option | What you get | Time to first usable video | Typical cost | Best for |
| DIY consumer AI tool | Stock model, stock look, you do all the work | Same day, unlimited re-rolls | $20–$60 / month subscription | Experimentation only |
| Commission a custom software build | Your own app or internal tool, fully owned | 3–9 months of development | $30,000–$150,000+ build, then hosting | Platforms with real ongoing volume |
| Traditional video production shoot | Real crew, real locations, real schedule | 4–8 weeks from booking | $2,000–$15,000 per spot | Live action with human talent |
| CarlosVideo18+ custom video service | Brief → script → generation → edit → sound → master, fictional 18+ characters only | **7 days from brief to final master** | **$94–$250 per finished video** | Creators, labels, small brands needing a specific clip now |

The gap in that table is the whole argument. If you need **one** video — a promo cut, a music video, a vertical social clip — a software build is absurd overkill and a shoot is slow and expensive. You need output, not infrastructure.

## The Process Behind a Custom AI Video App Workflow

Every engagement at [CarlosVideo18+](https://carlosvideo18.shop) follows the same five stages. Nothing is improvised, which is why the turnaround holds at seven days instead of drifting.

1. **Brief.** You describe the idea, the character look, the reference tones, the aspect ratio, and where the clip will run. Short written answers are enough; a messy paragraph works fine.  
2. **Script and shot list.** We write the beats, decide what is shown on screen, and confirm the pacing before any generation spend happens. This is where 80% of the problems get prevented.  
3. **Generation.** The character style is locked and applied across every shot so the same person appears in frame one and frame forty. Consistency is the hard part of this craft, and it is the part generic tools skip.  
4. **Edit and sound.** Cuts, transitions, color, voiceover, music bed, and mix. A generated clip without an edit pass looks like a generated clip; with one, it reads as a piece of work.  
5. **Master and delivery.** Final file in your requested format, with revisions included in the package. Premium work carries 2 revision rounds; Standard carries 2–3.

## What a Custom AI Video App Is Actually Good For

The strongest use cases share one trait: the video must be **specific**, and you need it this week.  
- **Vertical social clips** — 10–15 second cuts built for a single platform, one style, one hook. This is the entry point at $94.
  
- **Promo and product-adjacent spots** — 30–60 seconds with a custom look, voiceover, and a couple of revision rounds. The $150 band.
  
- **Music videos and longer narrative pieces** — 60+ seconds with complex scene changes and continuity across shots. Up to $250, with 2 revision rounds.
  
- **Character-driven series** — recurring fictional personas for a creator or label who needs the same face every upload.

One constraint that shapes everything we do: CarlosVideo18+ works with **fictional characters only**, and the audience is 18+. That is not a limitation to work around — it is why the character consistency is strong. A fictional persona can be locked, referenced, and re-rendered indefinitely without the rights and consent problems that wreck real-person projects.

## Pricing, Plainly Stated

Pricing is published up front so you can decide before you write a word. The full breakdown sits on the [pricing page](https://carlosvideo18.shop/pricing):  
- **Short clip — from $94.** A 10–15 second social cut in one style.
  
- **Standard — $150.** 30–60 seconds, custom style, voiceover, 2 revision rounds.
  
- **Premium — $250.** 60+ seconds, complex scenes, 2 revision rounds.

That is $94–$250 per finished video with a 7-day delivery window. Crypto only (USDT, BTC, ETH, USDC via Heleket); cards are not accepted. There is no retainer required to start a first project.

## Examples of Work in Practice

A few shapes the work commonly takes:

**A label needing a visualiser with a real character.** 40 seconds, one figure in a fixed environment, camera moves that follow the track. Standard band, delivered in a week, two revisions for a color tweak.

**A creator launching a recurring persona.** First clip establishes the face and the wardrobe; every later clip references the same look. This is where the workflow behaves most like an app — the inputs barely change, the output stays on-model.

**A brand wanting a vertical hook for paid placement.** 12 seconds, one style, no voiceover, cut to a square and a 9:16 export. Short clip band, fastest turnaround in the catalog.

The [portfolio](https://carlosvideo18.shop/portfolio) shows finished frames across these shapes so you can see the texture before committing.

## FAQ

### What is a custom AI video app?

A custom AI video app is a tailored video-generation workflow built around your specific brief, character style, format, and platform — rather than a generic subscription tool. CarlosVideo18+ delivers this as a managed service: you submit an idea, and a finished, edited, sound-mixed video master arrives within 7 days, with revisions included in the package.

### How much does a custom AI video cost?

CarlosVideo18+ pricing runs from $94 for a 10–15 second short clip, $150 for a Standard 30–60 second video with custom style and voiceover, $250 for Premium work of 60+ seconds with complex scenes and 2 revision rounds. Every price is fixed before production begins, with no retainer required.

### How long does delivery take?

Seven days from approved brief to final master. That window covers scripting, shot planning, generation, editing, sound, and the revision rounds included in your package. Shorter formats and straightforward briefs rarely use the full week, but the schedule is the same so you can plan a launch date around it with confidence.

### Do I need my own software or subscription?

No. The whole point of working with a studio instead of a tool is that you do not maintain anything. You send the idea in plain text, approve the scope, and receive a finished file. No account setup, no model configuration, no credits to top up, and no rendering queue to watch.

### Can you match a specific character or look across multiple videos?

Yes, and it is the hardest part of the craft. The character style is locked during the brief stage and referenced across every shot and every subsequent project, so the same fictional persona appears consistently frame to frame and upload to upload. That consistency is the main reason to commission work instead of prompting yourself.

### What do you need from me to start?

A short description of the idea, the intended length, where the video will run, and any visual references you like. Aspect ratio and voiceover preference help. Rough, unpolished briefs are fine — the script and shot list are written by us and approved by you before generation begins.

### Do you work with real people or only fictional characters?

Fictional characters only. Every character in a CarlosVideo18+ video is invented, which avoids likeness rights and consent issues entirely and makes long-term character consistency much easier to maintain. The audience for the work is 18+. If your project depends on a real person's face, this service is not the right fit.

### How do I pay, and how do revisions work?

Crypto only (USDT, BTC, ETH, USDC via Heleket); cards are not accepted. Revisions are built into the package rather than billed extra: 2–3 rounds on Standard work, unlimited rounds on Premium. You review the cut, send notes, and receive the updated master inside the same 7-day delivery window.
