30-second AI video on Sume: Wan 3.0, Seedance 2.5 or two 15 s clips
A 30 second clip on Sume at 720p: Wan 3.0 $3.75, Seedance 2.5 $17.334; two 15 second clips cost $3.00 on H3 Max and $11.34 on Seedance 2.
Thirty seconds of AI video on Sume costs $3.75 as one Wan 3.0 job at 720p and $17.334 as one Seedance 2.5 job. Per the Video Router docs, wan-3.0 accepts 2 to 30 seconds and seedance-2.5 4 to 30, while seedance-2, minimax-h3 and minimax-h3-max stop at 15 seconds, so 30 seconds there means two clips.
Sume bills each model's provider list times 1.25. The Seedance 2.5 list of $0.0214 per 1K tokens is on fal's page as read today; other rates come from Sume's pricing estimators.
The options priced
One Wan 3.0 job at $0.125 per second: 30 x $0.125 = $3.75. One Seedance 2.5 job: 648,000 tokens x $0.0214 per 1K x 1.25 = $17.334. Two Seedance 2 jobs of 15 seconds: each is 324,000 tokens x $0.014 per 1K x 1.25 = $5.67, so $11.34. Two H3 Max jobs at 768p, $0.10 per second: $3.00.
| Plan | Jobs | Total |
|---|---|---|
| wan-3.0, one 30 s job, 720p | 1 | $3.75 |
| seedance-2.5, one 30 s job, 720p | 1 | $17.334 |
| seedance-2, two 15 s jobs, 720p | 2 | $11.34 |
| minimax-h3-max, two 15 s jobs, 768p | 2 | $3.00 |
What two clips cost you besides money
Two jobs must each succeed, and the join is a cut, not a continuous shot, so continuity between the two ends is your problem. Each job also reserves its own estimate when accepted and releases it on failure, per the generation admission docs.
Confirm the duration limit for your input mode in the video generation docs before pricing; modes differ in what they accept.
