Pricing notes
Verified August 2026 via Iacoletti Software pages and TAAFT listing for Movie Maker Create. The Create/Edit apps are positioned as free; generation cost is BYOK to xAI/Google. Third-party writeups cite metered xAI Imagine Video around $0.07/sec (provider rate; verify at console.x.ai). Movie Maker Studio Pro desktop is a separate Iacoletti product for longer Windows productions. No Create subscription required for BYOK generation.
Pros & cons

Pros
Free tooling layer with provider-direct billing
Clear clip-then-edit workflow
Avoids marked-up credit SaaS for generation
Cons
Requires external API keys and account setup
Clip length/resolution constrained by provider models
Studio Pro features are a separate install/product
Review notes
Context from the listing review and editorial research.
NEW tool. Logo asset name moviemaker-imagine-video matches the prior MovieMaker Imagine Video brand. Related products: Movie Maker Edit (free web editor) and Movie Maker Studio Pro (desktop). Disambiguation: not Microsoft Movie Maker and not generic "AI movie maker" SEO landers from HeyGen/Fotor.

Use cases
Creators who already have (or will buy) xAI/Google video credits and want a lightweight free front end plus free assembly into a finished short, rather than another metered video SaaS.
