Frontier AI— without thesubscription.
One balance. Every model. No subscription.
Most AI generation tools force you into a monthly subscription with credits that expire. For irregular users — most prosumer creators — that means paying twice: once for the slow month where your quota expires unused, and again for the heavy month where you spill over the tier. The math always favors the subscription provider, not you.
hilens.ai exists for the opposite case: pay only for what you generate, mix models freely on one balance, and never lose a credit to a calendar reset. A $5 pack is 1,000 credits — use it across Nano Banana 2, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, and HappyHorse 1.1 over six months or six years, as you choose. There is no auto-renew, no trial-to-paid trap, and no "Pro tier unlocks more models" gating.
An independent platform
hilens.ai is an independent platform. We are not a reseller tier of a bigger subscription product, and there is no parent app waiting to upsell you into a monthly plan. The product is exactly what the pricing page shows: credit packs, per-generation costs, and a studio that runs the models we list.
Independence is also the honest frame for how we pick models. We source frontier models on their merits — image models for in-image text and identity consistency, video models for motion fidelity and audio — and when a model stops earning its slot, we delist it from sale and keep it only as a comparison reference in Model Arena. Our incentive is your cost-per-result, not a bundle’s retention curve.
Unrelated to Huawei HiLens
hilens.ai (consumer-facing pay-per-credit AI image and video generation) is unrelated to Huawei HiLens (an enterprise edge-AI infrastructure platform from Huawei Cloud). Same English spelling, different products, different companies. Any reference to "HiLens" or "hilens" on this site refers exclusively to the consumer creative platform.
Why these models
hilens sells frontier AI models today: Nano Banana 2, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, HappyHorse 1.1, Seedance 2.0, and HiDream-O1-image-1.5 — all live, with published prices. Each earns its slot for a specific reason:
- Nano Banana 2 — class-leading on in-image text + multi-panel identity (3 credits).
- Kling 3.0 — best human-motion and reference-image fidelity (32 credits / 5s).
- Veo 3.1 — strongest cinematography + synced ambient audio (39 credits / 4s).
- HappyHorse 1.1 — native audio generated in the same pass as video (58 credits / 5s).
We do not run every available model — we run the ones where the quality and value justify the credit cost. Model Arena has head-to-head comparisons.
What we promise — explicitly
- Credits never expire
- A pack you buy today works in twelve months. No monthly reset, no rollover cap, no fine print. If we ever change this we will return the unused balance in full.
- Per-generation cost is shown before you click Generate
- Every model's credit cost appears next to its name in Studio and on the pricing page. The number you see at click time is the number debited. No hidden surge pricing, no per-second metering, no surprise upcharges.
- Your prompts and outputs are not used to train models
- Generation content is retained for delivery and billing reconciliation, then deleted on the schedule in the Privacy Policy. We do not feed your data into our or anyone else's training pipeline.
- Refund within 7 days if the pack is unused
- Bought a pack, changed your mind, haven't generated anything? Email support@hilens.ai for a full refund within 7 days. Once any credit has been spent the pack becomes non-refundable.
- All models are available to all users
- No Pro tier that unlocks more models. Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, and HappyHorse 1.1 are available to the user who bought a $0.99 Starter pack on the same terms as the $99 Studio pack.
- Failed generations are auto-refunded
- When a generation fails due to a technical error on our side, credits are returned automatically. You only pay for outputs you receive.
