AI Studios 5.0 adds a chat agent that builds whole videos
The version also folds time-based billing and generative credits into one balance, with Personal at $29 a month.

Key takeaways
- DeepBrain AI released AI Studios 5.0 on November 9, 2026, adding a Video Agent that builds a narrated video from a chat message, document, link or script.
- The release replaces time-based billing and generative credits with a single balance: Personal costs $29 a month for 700 credits, and Team costs $69 per seat a month for 1,000.
- Avatar video exports cost 9 credits per minute, so a Personal plan's 700 monthly credits cover about 77 minutes of avatar video.
- Avatars made from real people now require an identity check before they can be created, DeepBrain says.
DeepBrain AI released AI Studios 5.0 on November 9, 2026, adding a chat-based Video Agent that turns a conversation, a document, a link or a script into a finished, narrated video.
The agent proposes a story outline first, then assembles the script, images, generated video, voice and AI avatars around it, according to DeepBrain's Video Agent documentation. The same update folded two billing systems into one, replacing time-based billing and generative credits with a single balance.
AI Studios is DeepBrain's browser-based platform for avatar videos, sold to marketing and training teams. Version 5.0 is the first to put video production and conversational avatars on one platform.
Alongside Video Agent it adds Role Play, where an AI avatar plays a customer and pushes back while a trainee practices a call and gets a score and a report afterward, and AI Interview, where an AI interviewer asks follow-up questions and sends HR the recording and per-question evaluations. It also adds Interactive Coaching, Character avatars made from a single photo or an illustration, Dual Avatar conversation scenes, and timeline editing across multiple video and audio tracks, per the 5.0 release notes.
The price list runs Free, Personal, Team and Enterprise. Free carries 12 credits on sign-up and up to 3 watermarked videos a month of up to 1 minute each. Personal costs $29 a month, or $24 billed yearly, for 700 credits a month. Team costs $69 per seat a month, or $55 billed yearly, for 1,000 credits per seat a month, from two seats. Enterprise is by contract. The pricing page says new and switching paid subscribers get double credits for their first month.
Credits are spent per feature. Avatar video export costs 9 credits a minute and AI dubbing 3 credits a minute, with voice-only export at 6 and plain audio export at 3, per DeepBrain's pricing update. At that rate a Personal plan's 700 monthly credits cover about 77 minutes of avatar video, before any generated images or clips. Planning the outline uses no credits, and basic images use none either.
DeepBrain chief executive Jang Se-young called AI Studios 5.0 an all-in-one production and avatar platform, according to the Korean outlet VentureSquare, which reported the launch with the trade sites AI Times and Digital Daily. The company says the agent cuts production time and cost; there is no independent test of that claim. Avatars made from real people now require an identity check first, DeepBrain says, a guard against unauthorized use.
AI Studios 5.0 is available now at aistudios.com, with a free tier and paid plans from $29 a month.
