Same prompt, five AI video models, one shrine shot.
Cheapest and most expensive were both 720p. The expensive one cost 3.6x more for the same resolution.
Here's what each clip actually cost.

Mitte also shows two different yearly discounts for the same plans, on two of its own pages.
Public pricing page: Save 30%.
In-app plans page: Save 50%.
Same plans, same annual totals. The real saving is near 30%, so 50% is the generous read.

None of this makes Mitte a bad tool. The images are strong and the paid video is usable. It's just one you budget from the receipt, not the panel.

There's a second one in Anthropic's own benchmark table.
The top column is the higher of Mythos 5 and Fable 5. On the starred cyber and biology rows, that's effectively Mythos 5's.
Public Fable reroutes those queries to Opus 4.8. You don't actually get the score on the chart.

If you're on a paid plan, the move is simple.
Use the free window before June 22 to run real workloads and watch your token usage. Leave with a number.
After that, any cost you can't measure is a guess.

Correction, posted June 13.
On June 12 the US government issued an export control directive and Anthropic disabled Claude Fable 5 for all users. The advice in this thread to use the free window before June 22 no longer applies. The model is unavailable right now.

This changed the day after I posted it.
On June 12 the US government issued an export control directive citing national security, and Anthropic disabled Claude Fable 5 for every customer. The free window below never reached June 22.
The pricing breakdown still stands as a record of how Fable was sold. The plan to use the window does not. Right now you can't use Fable at all.

Claude Fable 5: free on Pro, Max, and Team until June 22, then $10/$50 per million tokens.
The price isn't the hard part. Anthropic publishes it.
Your plan is metered in 5-hour sessions. Fable is metered in tokens. No published conversion.
You find out the cost by spending.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Zebracat's pricing page says you can get a full refund within 7 days if you have not downloaded a video.
Our account had nothing downloaded and no videos created, with an empty usage history. That is the exact case the refund covers.
They said no. Three times.

One caveat before anyone runs with this. It is a Tier B review and it only covers the buying layer. We generated zero finished videos, so we are not rating video quality or export reliability. The engine might be perfectly fine. We did not test it, and we are not going to pretend we did.

Verdict: caution, on the buying experience.
If credits are a budget you can write off and you test your exact use case on the free tier first, Zebracat might work for you.
But if you are counting on that refund promise, read the receipts before you pay. The full support thread and the pricing breakdown are here: future-stack-reviews.com/zeb…

I treat my reviews as living. Went back to Napkin AI four weeks after publishing and re-ran every credit test.
What I can now state precisely: the charge fires when you commit a visual, not at save or export. Browsing and exporting are free.

And the cost scales with displayed text, not input. An 11-word visual cost 30 credits, a 43-word one cost 118, about 2.7 per word. Effects are a separate flat 100.
The review now reflects all of this, with the receipts. That's the point of re-testing.
