One hundred Gemini Omni Flash clips cost $56.125 on Sume when most are drafts, and $150.00 if all 100 were 8-second 1080p renders. The difference is entirely the resolution ladder, since billing is per output second at a flat rate for each resolution.

The plan

How to run it

Stages are sequential: a stage only starts after you review the one before it, so the whole plan never needs more than one stage's reservations at once.

The largest single stage hold is the five 4K hero cuts at $18.75, then the 25 hook candidates at $15.625, the ten finals at $15.00 and the 60 drafts at $6.75, if you submit each stage all together. Keep the balance above the stage you are submitting, or a late job gets 402 insufficient_credits.

Adjust the mix

  • Every 10 clips moved from 1080p 8 s to 720p 8 s saves $5.00.
  • Every 4K ten-second hero costs $3.75, the same as about 33 drafts.
  • If a 100-job run hits 429 queue_full, submit in waves; the jobs do not need to be sent at once.

What the clip includes

Omni Flash always generates native synced audio, so the per-second rate already covers sound; there is no generate_audio switch to turn it off. Clips run 3 to 10 seconds, in 16:9 or 9:16 only.
