The migration notice, current prices, plan limits, privacy policy, and public reviews. This is a source-based briefing, not a hands-on video quality test.
The rebrand at a glance
| Detail | What the evidence says |
|---|---|
| Previous name | Viewmax |
| Current name | Everygen |
| Previous domain | viewmax.io; our visit ended at www.viewmax.io |
| Current domain | everygen.ai |
| Company | Viewmax LLC, doing business as Everygen |
| Old links | Everygen’s stated position: it keeps working while the move completes. |
| Rebrand timing | Confirmed by our 2026-10-02 check; the announcement does not state a date. |
When did Viewmax become Everygen?
The Viewmax AI video generator has been renamed Everygen, as confirmed by our 2026-10-02 check. Everygen publishes a migration notice titled “Viewmax is now Everygen”, with four migration FAQs, but the page does not state a date.
The current privacy policy is marked “Effective as of August 22, 2026” and names “Viewmax LLC, doing business as Everygen.” This places the Everygen name in a document carrying a 2026 effective date.
That is a dated record, not proof of the day or year the public rename launched. We have not checked an archived copy from that date. An exact launch date is not disclosed on the provider’s website pages we checked.
What happens when you open the old domain?
Our browser visit on 2026-10-02 ended at www.viewmax.io, displaying an Everygen-branded page. Everygen’s stated position on old links is: it keeps working while the move completes.
That migration wording has a time condition. It does not promise that every old address will work forever, and we have not tested every bookmark or shared video.
What changed—and what needs a closer look
The Everygen AI homepage now presents a broader creation suite. These are current offerings we verified, not a list of features proven to have launched on the day of the rename.
Seedance 2.5: the headline and the plan limits
The Everygen AI homepage advertises Seedance 2.5 video generation up to 30 seconds at 1080p. That describes a capability of the platform. It does not, by itself, establish access on every subscription.
The pricing comparison matrix marks “Seedance 2.5 & 1080p Access” for Creator only. Basic and Professional have dashes. Yet their plan cards say they include all Seedance models.
| Published statement | Basic | Professional | Creator |
|---|---|---|---|
| Homepage: Seedance 2.5, up to 30 seconds at 1080p | No plan-specific promise | No plan-specific promise | No plan-specific promise |
| Pricing cards: access to all Seedance models | Listed | Listed | Listed |
| Pricing matrix: Seedance 2.5 & 1080p Access | — | — | Included |
The matrix presents this as Creator-only; the cards use broader wording. Both statements appear on Everygen’s site. We cannot resolve that conflict for Everygen or confirm access inside an account.
If Seedance 2.5 or 1080p is why you are subscribing, ask Everygen to confirm access for your specific plan before paying. A prominent model on the homepage is not a substitute for that confirmation.
Marketing Studio
The homepage offers a workflow for making ads and adapting an existing ad concept. That may be useful when you want variations on a product pitch. The page does not establish a measured improvement in advertising results.
Shorts Studio
Shorts Studio offers short-form video creation based on existing formats. The blog index also lists a dedicated walkthrough. We verified the offering, not the quality of a finished Short.
Avatars
The homepage shows a selection of characters presented as script-directed avatars. This is relevant for presenter-style content. We have not tested voice delivery, consistency, or likeness controls.
MCP for Claude
Everygen presents a way to request video creation through Claude using an MCP connection. For a returning Viewmax AI user, the relevant point is that this is a current workflow option. This briefing does not cover connector setup or claim that a connection was tested.
More than one model
The homepage lists models from several families, including Seedance, Kling, MiniMax, and Veo, alongside image-generation options. Model choice and plan entitlement are separate questions; the pricing page distinguishes standard model access from all-model access.
Everygen vs. Viewmax: is anything actually different?
Viewmax AI and Everygen AI are two names for the same product, according to the migration notice. That makes this a continuity check rather than a comparison between competing tools. The notice describes what carries over; it does not provide a dated inventory of everything that changed.
| Area | What changed or stayed the same | What remains unconfirmed |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Viewmax is now Everygen | Exact public rename date |
| Domain | everygen.ai is the current domain; our old-domain visit displayed Everygen branding | Permanent support for all old links |
| Company | The privacy policy names Viewmax LLC, doing business as Everygen | No separate-company change established by these sources |
| Account | The migration notice says accounts, projects, and generated files carry over | Signed-in continuity was not tested |
| Price | The notice says existing plans, prices, and renewal dates stay the same | Each customer’s actual billing was not checked |
| Features | The homepage lists the current creation suite | Which features arrived specifically with the rename |
Company details come from Everygen’s privacy policy; current features come from the homepage. Our domain observation is dated 2026-10-02. Account and billing continuity remain Everygen’s published promises, rather than results from a migrated account we inspected.
For an existing Viewmax AI subscriber, the practical distinction is between keeping a subscription and buying a new one. The current pricing page describes new subscriptions and credit rules; its figures do not establish a change to your existing price. Likewise, a feature appearing on today’s homepage does not prove it was introduced by the rebrand.
Six questions for existing Viewmax users
These answers come from Everygen’s four-question migration notice. They describe what Everygen promises, not what we verified inside a customer account.
Will my subscription still be there?
Everygen says your subscription carries over, with the same plan, price, and renewal date. The current new-customer pricing table below does not override the terms of an existing subscription.
Can I still sign in through viewmax.io?
Everygen says to keep using your existing sign-in method. Its position on the old domain is that it keeps working while the move completes. We checked the public page, not a signed-in session.
Will my old links stop working?
The notice says existing links, bookmarks, and shared videos continue to work during the move. Keep that qualification attached to the claim. The notice does not give a permanent-retention deadline or a migration completion date.
Will the rename reset my credits?
The notice says existing credits stay in place. Separately, the pricing FAQ describes monthly refreshes and top-up expiration. Those rules should not be mistaken for a credit wipe caused by the rename.
Do I need to register again?
Everygen says no extra action is required and your account remains available. Start with your existing sign-in method. If you cannot access it, use Everygen’s support page rather than assuming a new paid account is necessary.
Are my old videos and projects still there?
The notice says previous videos, images, voiceovers, and projects remain in your library. ScreenSift has not inspected a migrated account. If something is missing, record the project name and contact Everygen support.
Your credits: two different expiration rules
The migration notice promises continuity. The pricing FAQ explains how credits expire during normal use. You need both pieces of information to understand a returning account’s balance.
| Credit type | Current published rule | What it means after the rename |
|---|---|---|
| Subscription plan credits | Refresh each month; unused credits do not roll over | Keeping your account does not make monthly credits permanent |
| Purchased top-up credits | Valid for 90 days | This is a separate balance with a different expiration rule |
| Existing credits during the rename | The migration notice says they remain | This does not cancel either of the rules above |
The pricing FAQ also says exports, voiceovers, captions, and generations can use credits. A monthly balance should not be read as a guaranteed number of finished, edited videos.
Everygen says you can buy top-ups on any plan. Complete top-up pack prices were not disclosed on the public pricing page we checked. Check the account purchase screen before treating top-ups as a fixed-cost fallback.
Is the new name worth using?
For a fuller buying assessment of the current tools, pricing, and limitations, read our Everygen AI review.
The Everygen AI name alone is not a reason to upgrade. The useful question is whether the current tools, model access, and credit rules match what you actually need to make.
| Your situation | ScreenSift’s assessment |
|---|---|
| You already use Viewmax and want to continue an existing project | Try your existing account first; the migration notice says it carries over |
| You want short-form content, ads, and avatar workflows in one place | The current feature set may fit; test your own workflow before making a longer commitment |
| You need Seedance 2.5 or 1080p on a lower-priced plan | Resolve the published access conflict with Everygen before subscribing |
| You create occasionally and want credits to accumulate | Monthly plan credits do not roll over, so this policy may be a poor fit |
| You need a verified output-quality benchmark before buying | This source-based briefing cannot supply one; we have not run generation tests |
Public reviews are still under Viewmax
On 2026-10-02, Trustpilot’s viewmax.io listing displayed 3.5 out of 5 from 79 reviews under the Viewmax name. This is a dated snapshot, not ScreenSift’s rating or a fixed score.
The visible reviews include praise for ease of use and support, alongside complaints about credit consumption, output, and billing. Some reviewers report that support resolved refund issues. These are reviewer accounts, not independently verified findings.
Trustpilot also says it does not fact-check reviews and that reviews may not be representative. Read the current listing and Everygen’s responses before drawing a conclusion about your own likely experience.
Everygen prices and the output behind the credits
Pricing as of 2026-10-02 — verify on Everygen’s website. We switched between monthly and annual billing on the pricing page and checked the displayed prices directly.
The page uses “$” without specifying the currency. We do not assume USD. The annual figures below are monthly equivalents charged on an annual billing schedule, not month-to-month prices.
Monthly versus annual billing
| Plan | Monthly billing | Annual billing, per-month equivalent | Credits per month | Everygen’s plan-card output example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $19.99 | $14 | 200 | 18 Seedance 2 Fast videos |
| Professional | $29.99 | $19 | 350 | 26 Seedance 2 videos |
| Creator, default selection | $69.99 | $49 | 800 | 61 Seedance 2 videos |
Prices read 2026-10-02. The “$” currency is unspecified on the page. Creator also offers larger credit selections; this table covers its default 800-credit tier. It is not a quote for an existing Viewmax subscription.
The output numbers do not tell one consistent story
The cards translate credits into example video counts. Farther down, the same page’s comparison matrix lists different “up to” counts for Seedance 2 AI videos. Here are both, without turning either into a guarantee.
| Plan | Plan-card example | Comparison-matrix maximum |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | 18 Seedance 2 Fast videos | Up to 33 Seedance 2 AI videos |
| Professional | 26 Seedance 2 videos | Up to 66 Seedance 2 AI videos |
| Creator, default selection | 61 Seedance 2 videos | Up to 150 Seedance 2 AI videos |
Source: Everygen’s pricing cards and comparison matrix, read 2026-10-02. Basic’s card explicitly names the Fast variant; the matrix uses a broader Seedance 2 label.
The displayed counts alone do not give enough shared settings to reconcile them. We therefore do not calculate a universal cost per finished video or claim a measured number of usable outputs.
Before committing, check the selected model, duration, resolution, and the charge shown for your own generation. Leave room in your budget for edits and other credit-consuming steps rather than treating a headline maximum as a production promise.
Sources and what this check covers
We read Everygen’s public pages in a browser on 2026-10-02, including both billing modes. Prices and account policies are Everygen’s statements. Domain behavior is our public-page observation; the Trustpilot figures are an external snapshot.
| Source | Used to verify |
|---|---|
| Viewmax migration notice | Rename, four migration FAQs, account and billing continuity |
| Everygen homepage | Current features, model list, and advertised video capability |
| Everygen pricing | Prices, credit rules, plan access, and both sets of output counts |
| Everygen privacy policy | Company trading name and the document’s effective date |
| Everygen blog | Current tutorial topics, including Shorts Studio |
| Trustpilot’s Viewmax profile | Rating, review count, and public feedback snapshot |
We did not complete checkout, run a generation benchmark, verify every old link, or inspect a migrated account. The precise public rebrand date, migration completion date, and explanation for conflicting plan descriptions remain unconfirmed.
This briefing focuses on migration continuity and the gap between advertised features and plan details. It gives returning users a way to check what carries over and what still needs clarification before they spend more.
Frequently asked questions
The questions behind the new name.
Is Everygen the same as Viewmax?
Yes. Everygen’s migration notice identifies Everygen as the renamed Viewmax product. It says existing accounts, subscriptions, credits, projects, and generated files carry over. Its privacy policy names Viewmax LLC, doing business as Everygen.
When did Viewmax change its name to Everygen?
The rename was confirmed by our 2026-10-02 check, but the announcement page does not state a date. The current privacy policy has an effective date of August 22, 2026 and uses the Everygen trading name. That dated reference does not establish the exact launch date or, on its own, the year the rename took place.
Can I still use viewmax.io?
Everygen’s stated position is that it keeps working while the move completes. On 2026-10-02, our browser visit ended at www.viewmax.io and displayed Everygen branding. We did not test every old link or complete a signed-in login.
Do I need a new Everygen account if I used Viewmax?
No, according to the migration notice. Everygen says to use your existing sign-in method and that no additional action is needed. This is Everygen’s statement, not an account-level migration test by ScreenSift.
Will my Viewmax subscription price change?
The migration notice says existing plans, prices, and renewal dates stay the same. Current prices for new subscriptions do not establish what an existing account will be charged. Check your own billing details before changing plans.
Will I lose my Viewmax credits or old videos?
Everygen says the rename preserves credits, projects, and generated files. Separately, its current pricing FAQ says plan credits refresh monthly without rollover, while top-up credits last 90 days. Preservation during a rename does not make credits permanent.
Does every Everygen plan include Seedance 2.5 and 1080p?
The comparison matrix marks Seedance 2.5 and 1080p access only for Creator, with dashes for Basic and Professional. The cards also say all Seedance models are included. Those statements conflict; ask Everygen to confirm your plan’s access before paying for this feature.
Is Everygen worth paying for after the Viewmax rebrand?
The new name alone is not a reason to upgrade. Compare the models your plan includes, the output you need, and the credit expiration rules. ScreenSift has checked public sources, not tested generated-video quality or independently verified account migration.
