Free Image to Video for VS Code
Free image to video AI with no daily cap: start with no sign-up, keep going on a free account. Every video comes with sound and no watermark. This is the official VS Code extension for Free Image to Video: right-click a photo in the Explorer (or run a command) and the finished .mp4 lands in your workspace.
With a Markdown file open (a README, docs, a changelog), a <video> tag for the new clip is inserted at the cursor, so a moving demo for your project is one command away. Every clip is image to video AI with sound; prompts alone work too, the same way free text to video AI does on the site.
| Command |
What it does |
| Free Image to Video: Photo to Video |
Pick a JPG / PNG / WebP (or right-click one in the Explorer, or paste an image URL), describe the motion, get an MP4 with the photo as the first frame |
| Free Image to Video: Text to Video |
Prompt in, MP4 out |
| Free Image to Video: Show Credits |
Credits left on your account (free to call) |
| Free Image to Video: Set API Key |
Stores your key in VS Code's secret storage |
Clips are saved to assets/ (configurable). Local photos are uploaded to freeimagetovideo.ai so the model can read them.
Setup
- Sign in on freeimagetovideo.ai and create a key at freeimagetovideo.ai/settings/apikeys.
- Run Free Image to Video: Set API Key and paste it. (
FREEIMAGETOVIDEO_API_KEY in the environment works too.)
API runs need a paid plan: each run draws on the plan's daily full-speed allowance, then waits in the relaxed queue; the extension keeps waiting and shows when a run is queued. Plans: freeimagetovideo.ai/pricing. To make clips without a key, use the generator on the website: start with no sign-up, keep going on a free account.
