About LTX Studio
What is LTX Studio (2026 update)
LTX Studio, built by Lightricks, is an AI-driven filmmaking platform that takes a project from concept to a finished video inside one workspace. Instead of stitching together separate tools for storyboarding, shot generation, and editing, it lets a user go from a script or idea to generated shots, camera angles, and continuity across a scene using its own LTX video models.
What is new in 2026
Lightricks released the LTX-2.5 model on August 11, 2026, its most significant update of the year. LTX-2.5 adds native multi-shot generation, which produces multiple connected shots in a single generation while holding character, environment, and continuity across cuts, something earlier single-shot generation could not do reliably. The release also introduced a Video Editing IC-LoRA for editing real footage rather than only generating new clips, a diffusion video decoder for sharper output, a custom Gemma 4 12B text encoder, a dedicated prompt enhancer, and Auto Duration. Earlier in the year LTX Studio shipped SDR to HDR conversion for turning existing video into true HDR, an Upscale feature that pushes video to 4K or 8K directly in the app, and Canvas, a collaborative infinite workspace for teams to generate and align on concepts together in real time.

Pricing in 2026
LTX Studio uses a monthly credit system with a free tier for personal, non-commercial testing and paid tiers that unlock commercial use and premium models.
| Plan | Price | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 800 one-time credits, personal use only, no commercial rights |
| Lite | $15/month ($12/month billed annually) | 8,000 credits per month, personal use only |
| Standard | $35/month ($28/month billed annually) | 28,000 credits per month, commercial use, access to premium models like Veo 2 and Kling 2.6 Pro |
| Pro | $125/month (about $100/month billed annually) | 110,000 credits per month, full commercial use and premium model access |
| Enterprise | Custom | Unlimited credits, custom model training, SSO and GDPR/ISO/SOC 2 compliance |
Commercial rights only start at the Standard tier, so creators planning to publish or sell work generated with the free or Lite plan should upgrade first. Confirm current credit costs per generation on the official pricing page, since model updates like LTX-2.5 can change how many credits a shot consumes.
Who should use it
LTX Studio fits independent filmmakers, video marketing teams, and agencies that want to previsualize or fully generate short-form video content without a full production crew. The multi-shot continuity in LTX-2.5 makes it particularly useful for narrative or ad-style content that needs consistent characters across several cuts, and Canvas makes it workable for small teams collaborating on concepts together.
Limitations and alternatives
The free and Lite tiers restrict output to personal, non-commercial use, so businesses need at least the Standard plan, and credit consumption on longer or higher-resolution generations can add up quickly for heavy users. As with any generative video tool, output quality and continuity can still vary by prompt complexity, so testing on your specific use case before committing to an annual plan is worth the time. Alternatives commonly compared to LTX Studio include Runway, Pika, and Luma Dream Machine, each with different model strengths and pricing structures for AI video generation.
