Beautiful video.
Honest receipt.
Every film you make ships with a real run record — true cost, true duration, the exact model chain. Not a black box. Not a credit trap. Every frame, itemized.
↑ every output carries this. the number is real, never invented. this one is a labeled sample.
Everyone sells the output. We also hand you the invoice.
Higgsfield, Artlist and Suno all composite the same third-party models you'd use — then hide the meter behind credits that expire. Refract makes the meter the product.
The black box
Refract
A finished, itemized film before you ever sign up.
No blank prompt box. You pick a starting film, get a real result on the first try, and only make an account when you want to keep it.
Pick, don't stare
Start from a finished-looking template with its sample receipt already on it. The blank canvas never appears.
no accountFirst-try win
A storyboard/animatic plays in seconds — the wow that's cheap to compute — with the run record filling in for real.

Live elapsed time and true cost — never a fake progress bar. "3 free films left today · resets 09:00."
