Frequently Asked Questions [FAQs]
Why didn’t my video show up after using AI VideoGen?
The video rendering process typically takes less than 10 minutes. If your video doesn't appear within this time, try refreshing the Vitals app by reloading the page and navigating back to the AI VideoGen tool. Your video should display as finished. If the issue persists, feel free to contact our support team.
How does AI VideoGen charge me for video generation?
You are charged only when a video is successfully generated and visible in your account. If the video fails to generate, you will not be charged.
To verify your charges:
- Go to Shopify admin > Settings > Billing.
- Check your most recent or upcoming bill for a breakdown of Vitals charges.
- Charges will reflect only for successfully generated videos created by AI VideoGen.
I have the Vitals app on my development store. Can I use this feature?
Since this feature needs an active payment method on the store, development stores would not be able to use it.
