What Are the Best APIMart Alternatives for Video APIs in 2026?

The nearest replacements for APIMart's video and image catalog are CometAPI, Atlas Cloud, reAPI, Makernice and Crun. All five are pay-as-you-go, and each lists most of the Seedance, Kling, Wan and MiniMax models APIMart sells. Where they part ways is refunds, whether a figure shown before a run is final, and how a finished result comes back to you. Every page cited below was read on November 11, 2026.

How does APIMart charge, and what sends buyers elsewhere?

APIMart calls itself a unified AI API platform for LLM, image and video models and promises "Pay-as-you-go with no plan tiers." It also says "you only pay for successful requests." On top of plain pay-as-you-go it runs Gold, Platinum and Diamond membership tiers, and states that the upper two "save up to 28%". Checkout goes through "Antom (Visa, Mastercard, Alipay), Crypto, PayPal, and Creem", and unused balance can be refunded on request within 7 days after a top-up.

The gaps show up once a pipeline depends on it. We found no statement on APIMart's pages about fixing a price before a job starts, no rule for cancelling a running task, and no number of days for output storage; the privacy text only says outputs are stored temporarily to provide the API. Results arrive through a task completion webhook or a task status query.

Which pay-as-you-go, multi-model APIs can replace APIMart?

CometAPI, Atlas Cloud, reAPI, Makernice and Crun are pay-as-you-go APIs that each carry most of the Seedance, Kling, Wan and MiniMax models on APIMart, and none of them needs a monthly plan. CometAPI and Atlas Cloud also sell text models, so they suit buyers who want LLMs and media on one account. The table lists who each one suits, how it bills and the date its page was read.

This table describes billing, not price levels. Per-second and per-image rates for the same model and resolution, set next to APIMart's own, live on the APIMart alternative page, where they are recalculated from each published price list.

Refunds, payment and price finality on each alternative

CometAPI says it "charges per token for text models and per image/second for media models", with no monthly fee, no minimum spend and no subscription. A request that reaches the model and comes back with a 5xx error is not billed, while a text stream interrupted mid-way is billed for the tokens already produced. Credits do not expire as long as the account stays in good standing, and new users get free trial credits without a card. On refunds its policy is short: "Purchased credits are generally non-refundable."

Atlas Cloud aggregates image, video, audio and chat models behind one balance. "Failed tasks are not charged", and the price you see first is an estimate, because the exact charge is computed when the task completes. Each top-up has a minimum, credits expire 365 days after purchase, and "All purchases are final, non-refundable, and non-transferable." It takes cards through Stripe, Alipay and cryptocurrency, keeps outputs 14 days unless told otherwise, and was running a credit-back offer on MCP and CLI spend until November 13.

reAPI charges credits at a fixed US-dollar rate for each completed generation, billed per token, image or video second depending on the model, and refunds failed generations in full. An account can keep up to 100 media tasks running at once under its default limits. Credits last while the account is active, new accounts receive free credits without a card, and checkout options span cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, WeChat Pay, Alipay, BTC, USDT and USDC. Results are fetched by polling a task id.

Makernice sells 19 video and image models (browse the full list) from a prepaid US-dollar balance with no subscription and no free credits. Top-ups accept cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC); Makernice adds no top-up fee, though local tax can apply at checkout. The balance does not expire, and unused balance is not refunded as a rule, with special cases reviewed one by one. Before each run the price is settled: a REST quote holds for 12 minutes, and over MCP the generate tool turns down a job priced above the max_cost_usd you approved. Failed, timed-out and input-rejected runs cost nothing; an output blocked by moderation is still charged and can be sent to support for review.

Crun sells credits in four top-up plans, and the number of credits per dollar climbs from 200 on the smallest plan to 224 on the largest. Its rate cards carry a caveat: "The following are estimated credits and costs. Final charges are based on actual official Token usage." Generated media is kept 14 days and then deleted, new generation requests are capped at 20 per 10 seconds, and every task runs asynchronously. A free trial is offered, consumed credits are non-refundable, and we found no rule on whether failed tasks are charged.

Which alternative suits a webhook-driven pipeline like APIMart's?

Makernice is the one alternative here whose pages document both a per-job callback and an account-wide webhook, which is the closest match to the task completion webhook on APIMart. reAPI documents polling by task id, and on the CometAPI, Atlas Cloud and Crun pages we checked we found no callback for media tasks.

• APIMart: a task completion webhook, plus a status endpoint you can query.
• Makernice: polling, a callback_url passed when the job is created, or an account-wide webhook; coding agents connect over MCP through the Claude Code and Cursor guides.
• reAPI: a documented polling reference for tasks by id.
• Crun: asynchronous tasks; we did not find a callback described on the pages we checked.
• CometAPI and Atlas Cloud: neither page we checked documented a callback for media tasks, so plan on polling until you confirm otherwise in their docs.

Storage matters as much as delivery. CometAPI states that it does not collect or store model outputs, Atlas Cloud and Crun both keep files 14 days, and each Makernice output carries an expiresAt, 30 days after completion in the docs example. Copy anything you keep to your own bucket.

When is APIMart still the right choice?

Keep APIMart if the refund window is part of how you budget: none of the five alternatives here publishes a comparable 7-day refund on unused balance. Keep it if your team spends enough for the Platinum or Diamond tier to matter, or if paying through PayPal or Creem is easier than cards for your finance team. And keep it if you want LLMs and media models under one key, which rules Makernice out. To check a single model before moving, the APIMart alternative page lines up the shared models one by one.
