Tokens & Pricing
Understand how DREAM tokens work, what they cost, and how to manage your token balance effectively.
What are DREAM Tokens?
DREAM tokens are the currency used across Dream Engine. Every AI operation (generation, editing, animation) consumes tokens based on complexity and resource usage.
💡 Think of tokens like: Credits at an arcade - different games cost different amounts, and you can buy more anytime.
