Can you get back a deleted AI video?
It depends on the tool. Pippit lets you recover deleted drafts and videos for up to 30 days. Luma says deleting a generation is permanent and removes it from the account, and SceneMixer that there is no restore, in the app or by asking. The other pages say nothing on it. From 3 source pages, read 2026-09-25; no maker pays to be listed.
| Tool | Limit | Stated on the page |
|---|---|---|
| Luma | Keeping files | Deleting a generation is permanent, with no recovery |
| Pippit | Keeping files | Deleted drafts and videos recoverable for up to 30 days |
| SceneMixer | Keeping files | Deleting is permanent; there is no restore |
Inclusion rule. A tool is listed when its own page states the limit this question turns on. Order. Tools in alphabetical order.
On a series, deletion mistakes are easy: a folder of old takes cleared to free space turns out to hold the one clip an edit still uses. A recovery window turns that into an inconvenience; a permanent delete makes it a reshoot.
Where a page says deletion is final, keep a local copy of every clip that makes it into an episode before tidying the account.
