Neural Frames: Features, Pricing, Limits and How Solmi Compares

Neural Frames is an AI music video platform for musicians: Autopilot storyboards a whole song into a video with characters that can sing along, and the frame-by-frame editor makes audio-reactive animation from the stems of your track. Here is what it costs in 2026, what it does well, where it falls short, and how Solmi compares.

What is Neural Frames?

Neural Frames (neuralframes.com) is an AI music video platform for musicians, bootstrapped in Berlin since 2023. It has three ways to work: Autopilot turns an uploaded song into a full music video or lyric video; the frame-by-frame editor makes audio-reactive animation driven by an 8-stem split of the track; and a text-to-video editor builds scenes with models such as Kling, Seedance, and Runway. Neural Tunes, its AI music generator, can make the song first.

In Autopilot, Neural Frames transcribes the lyrics, lets you assign up to 3 characters, and storyboards the song scene by scene; you can edit and regenerate any scene and choose a Classic, Lyric Showcase, or Vocal Video technique, in which a character sings along. Videos export in 16:9 or 9:16 at 1080p, or upscaled to 4K on the higher plans. It runs in the browser.

What Neural Frames does well

Neural Frames is the better fit for art-directed, audio-reactive visuals where you want control over every frame, especially for electronic and experimental music. It also handles longer projects, up to 15 minutes in Autopilot, lets you pick the video model per project, and upscales to 4K on its Neural Ninja and Neural Nirvana plans.

  • Audio-reactive, frame-by-frame animation driven by an 8-stem split of your track.
  • Autopilot storyboards a whole song, transcribes the lyrics, keeps up to 3 characters consistent, and has a Vocal Video technique in which a character sings along.
  • Long projects: its help center lists up to 15 minutes in Autopilot and 10 minutes frame by frame.
  • A choice of models such as Kling, Seedance, and Runway, 4K upscaling from the Neural Ninja plan, and Neural Tunes for making the song too.

Where Neural Frames falls short

  • Web only, with no official iOS or Android app.
  • Full-length Autopilot videos point you to Neural Ninja ($99/month, or $66/month billed yearly): Neural Frames marks the $39 Neural Knight plan as not recommended for Autopilot, and it has no 4K.
  • A video's credit cost depends on its length and the model you pick, so long songs on premium models use credits fast.

How Solmi differs

Choose Neural Frames for audio-reactive visuals with frame-by-frame control, projects up to 15 minutes, or 4K upscaling, which starts on its Neural Ninja plan. Choose Solmi if you want to export 16:9 or 9:16 with a performer cast from your photos who lip-syncs the lyrics, or work in the iOS and Android apps as well as the web.

Solmi is the better pick if you want to work on your phone as well as the web. It detects the lyrics, drafts a shot-by-shot storyboard you edit in plain language, casts a performer from your photos, and lip-syncs the vocals, and a finished video usually renders in 3–10 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Neural Frames?

Neural Frames is an AI music video platform for musicians, bootstrapped in Berlin since 2023. Autopilot turns an uploaded song into a full music video or lyric video with a storyboard you can edit, the frame-by-frame editor makes audio-reactive animation from an 8-stem split of the track, and a text-to-video editor works scene by scene with models such as Kling, Seedance, and Runway.

Is Neural Frames free?

It's free to start without a credit card. The trial credits cover a couple of Autopilot storyboards or about 20 seconds of frame-by-frame video, and paid plans add longer renders, 4K export, and no watermark. Solmi is free to start too: new accounts get a one-time 100 music-video credits, enough for one 20-second 480p preview with a watermark.

How much does Neural Frames cost?

Neural Knight is $39/month, or $26/month billed yearly, for 2,400 credits; Neural Ninja is $99/month, or $66/month billed yearly, for 7,200 credits and 4K; Neural Nirvana is $299/month, or $199/month billed yearly, for 24,000 credits. Neural Frames recommends Neural Ninja for full-length Autopilot videos. Solmi's Plus plan is $35/month for 2,000 credits (roughly 3–7 one-minute music videos), with Creator ($85) and Pro ($135) above it.

Does Neural Frames do lip-sync?

Yes. In Autopilot, Neural Frames' Vocal Video technique makes a character sing along with your song, and you can upload an image of the character to keep it consistent. Solmi detects the lyrics in 14 languages and lip-syncs a performer cast from your photos.

Does Neural Frames work with Suno songs?

Yes, as an audio file: download the final song from Suno and upload the MP3 or WAV. Solmi works the same way: upload the file you downloaded from Suno; a pasted Suno link works only when Suno serves a public file for the song.

Is Solmi a Neural Frames alternative?

Yes, and the two now overlap: both storyboard a finished song and lip-sync a character to it. Solmi adds iOS and Android apps. Neural Frames adds frame-by-frame, audio-reactive control, projects up to 15 minutes, and 4K upscaling on its higher plans.
