AI shorts pricing: what each platform charges to finish a series

The plans in one table

Every figure is in US dollars. We looked at Candy AI on 20 October 2026, OurDream on 13 November 2026 and Secrets AI on 14 November 2026. Plans move, so treat the table as a snapshot.

Candy AI: tokens first, plan second

On Candy AI, episodes are bought with tokens. On our board each locked episode is 12 tokens and the bill starts at episode 3. Five episodes means three locked ones, so 36 tokens end the story. Longer series cost more: Kiss My Enemy, at six episodes, is 48, and The Man Next Door Knows, at nine, is 84.

Premium brings 100 tokens a month. That is enough for two five-episode series (72 tokens) with 28 to spare. A few series show a reduced price right now, Sworn to the Queen among them. We do not print the cut, since Candy AI sets it.

Dreamy Shorts: Premium or nothing

Dreamy Shorts has no token counter. Episode 1 plays free, episode 2 is free after a free sign-up with Google or e-mail, and from episode 3 you need Premium.

Paying yearly costs 119.88 USD, which is 9.99 USD a month and half the monthly rate. OurDream also sells a deluxe yearly plan at 359.88 USD with extra coins, which adds nothing for watching series. The payment methods are not listed before sign-up, and on cancelling, the paywall says you can cancel, according to OurDream.

Secrets AI: Moments, 500 at a time

Secrets AI counts in Moments. A locked episode here costs 500, and only Premium or Ultimate members can spend them; a free account cannot buy any. Each unlock covers one episode, which you can rewatch, and locked episodes open in order.

The maths for five episodes: three locked, 500 each, 1,500 Moments. A Premium month brings 8,000, so five series like that fit, with 500 over. Cards (no Amex), virtual debit cards and crypto (20 USD minimum) are accepted. Your statement reads S LABS INC, and the account page lets you cancel at any time.

What finishing a series costs

Take a five-episode story and the sums are short. Candy AI: 36 tokens, inside one Premium month's 100. Dreamy Shorts: a month of Premium at 19.99 USD should cover a whole series, since they run roughly 5 to 12 episodes. Secrets AI: 1,500 Moments, inside one Premium month's 8,000.

Chat is not counted in any of this, because each platform sets its own terms. Our budget guide turns the sums into worked examples.

Who should pick what

Sampling one story at a time suits Candy AI's tokens best, as you buy only what you watch. If you plan weeks on one platform, Dreamy Shorts on the yearly plan beats its monthly rate, although a yearly bill is a bigger commitment. If you want filmed drama with a heat meter, Secrets Premium brings 8,000 Moments a month, enough for several series.

Before you pay

Read the checkout screen. Each platform shows the amount before the purchase, prices move, and cancelling works the way each platform describes. We are an outside fan site, and Candy.ai, OurDream and Secrets do not run it. The play buttons are affiliate links, so we may earn a commission if you sign up or pay.
