Plan prices and the dollar value of a credit sit on a JavaScript-only billing page.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### framefields\n\n1. Add the plugin with `/plugin marketplace add gatewai-dev/framefields` first; the official-directory install was not found on 20 October 2026.\n2. Approve only the skia-canvas install script, as the getting-started page shows, or imports fail with a missing `skia.node`.\n3. Check with `comp.lint()` and `renderFrameGrid` before a full `renderVideo` encode.\n4. Call `process.exit()` after rendering; native GPU threads keep the script alive.\n5. Preload vision models into `FRAMEFIELDS_MODELS_DIR` for offline or CI renders.\n\n### PixVerse API\n\n1. Generate a new UUID for Ai-trace-id on every new submit. Reuse it only to fetch the same job again\n2. Poll the result endpoint. Status 1 is done, 5 generating, 7 moderation failure, 8 failed\n3. Moderate prompts before calling. Repeated status 7 results can suspend the key\n4. Use model v6 or c1 for new work. Older model tables still sit in the docs\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, framefields or PixVerse API?\n\nframefields scores 61.3 (C) on agent readiness against PixVerse API's 42.4 (E), and leads in 6 of 7 scored categories. PixVerse API leads on transparency \u0026 trust.\n\n### Can an agent call framefields and PixVerse API without installing anything?\n\nNo hosted endpoint is listed for framefields. PixVerse API has a hosted endpoint at https://app-api.pixverse.ai/openapi/v2.\n\n### Are framefields and PixVerse API open source?\n\nframefields is open source (Apache-2.0). No open-source release is listed for PixVerse API.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/framefields-vs-pixverse.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/framefields-vs-pixverse.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"framefields\", \"b\": \"pixverse\"}`.
