Last verified 2026-06-14. Prices read directly from pika.art/pricing on 2026-06-14. Page defaults to annual billing with 'Yearly -20% off' toggle; month-to-month prices are not explicitly shown. monthlyUsd records the annual-equivalent monthly rate. Estimated month-to-month rates (20% higher) noted in plan notes. No enterprise or contact-sales tier was shown on the page. CORRECTION (verifier 2026-06-14): the three paid tiers were originally mislabeled Basic/Standard/Pro; Pika's actual paid tiers at these prices/credits are named Standard/Pro/Fancy (the real 'Basic' is the free 80-credit tier). Names corrected and cross-checked against magichour.ai/blog/pika-labs-pricing and the live pika.art/pricing extraction; prices ($8/$28/$76 annual) and credits (700/2,300/6,000) were already correct. Cross-checked against magichour.ai.
