Farmers market weekly update: a 25-second avatar clip, priced
A weekly 25-second avatar update for a market costs about $4.60 on Standard, $6.13 on Plus or $13.75 on Max at Sume's listed per-second rates.
A weekly market update is the same format every time: what is in season, any vendor news, and the hours. At Sume's listed no-product rates, 25 seconds costs about $4.60 on Standard, $6.13 on Plus and $13.75 on Max, so a weekly run on Standard is around $4.60 a week by that rate.
The script and the call
Write about 25 seconds: three items in season, one vendor mention, the day and hours. Keep the structure fixed so the weekly script is a fill-in template.
Call POST /v1/avatar-1.0/talking-video with the market's avatar_handle, a script and a dated Idempotency-Key such as market-2026-10-10. The same avatar every week keeps the face familiar.
What it costs
At 25 seconds: Sume reserves on its planned billable seconds, which can differ a little from the length of your script, so these are estimates.
| quality | Rate per second | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| standard | $0.184 | about $4.60 |
| plus | $0.245 | about $6.13 |
| max | $0.55 | about $13.75 |
Look before you render
Check the first frame once for the template, then use Standard for weekly runs. Move to Plus only if the quality gap shows on your phone.
