All-hands recap with an AI presenter: a 60-second video and its cost

A 60-second AI presenter recap costs $11.04 on Sume standard, $14.70 on plus and $33.00 on max, because 60 seconds is the longest single clip the avatar route accepts. Fifty-two weekly recaps cost $574.08, $764.40 and $1716.00. Use a created avatar, not a likeness of a named executive, and say in the clip or caption that the presenter is AI. See the avatar video docs.

Three points, one presenter

Sixty seconds is about 140 to 150 spoken words. Three headlines with one sentence each fit; anything longer should be split into two jobs or moved to a written note. A weekly series reuses the same avatar handle so it looks the same every week.

One week and a year

Prices at the 60-second maximum, no product image.
