AI Video and Image Generation from the UAE

Elyum is a single studio with one credit balance and over 50 AI models for video, image and audio. Seedance 2.5, Wan 3.0, Kling 3.0, Veo 3.1, GPT Image, MiniMax H3 and more. You render, you get a free preview. Keep the takes you want: that is the only moment credits are charged. Kill the rest for a full refund. Failed renders cost nothing.

Plans start at Free (our algorithm may grant up to 100 credits, no card) through Plus at $9 (33.05 AED, 2026-10-18), Pro at $29 (106.50 AED, 2026-10-18) and Ultra at $69 (253.40 AED, 2026-10-18) per month. Top-up credits never expire. One credit is $0.01 (0.04 AED, 2026-10-18). Sign-up needs an email or a Google account. Checkout runs on Stripe in US dollars; Visa, Mastercard and Apple Pay are accepted. The AED figures on this page are conversions at the rate shown, not a checkout currency.

The studio interface is in English. Model pages are also available in Arabic. Beyond the browser, Elyum connects to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor through an MCP server and a REST API. If your team already works inside an AI assistant, the renders come back there.

Models tested on local briefs

Model tests from the UAE are being published. As results come in, the table below will rank each model by how well it handled the textures, lighting and product detail that luxury and hospitality campaigns here demand. In the meantime, visit the individual model pages to see renders and ratings from other regions.

No model has been tested on a brief from here yet. Every model page shows the tests from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Egypt.

Ad formats

Dubai campaigns live in Instagram Reels 9:16 and TikTok 9:16 for vertical luxury product spots, with Meta feed posts carrying the wider 16:9 cinematic cuts. A chronograph on wet marble, a penthouse terrace at dusk, a perfume flacon catching light: these are the shots running across DIFC and Marina feeds. The model pages show tests in both 9:16 and 16:9 so you can compare outputs against the exact aspect ratios your media plan calls for.

Paying from the UAE

Checkout runs on Stripe and charges in US dollars. Visa, Mastercard and Apple Pay are accepted. The AED conversions on this page use the rate and date shown beside each price. No card is needed to sign up or to use the Free plan. Credit top-ups purchased separately never expire.
