Free trial day-3 nudge video: AI avatar onboarding clip and cost

A day-3 trial nudge should be one rendered clip sent to everyone, not one clip per user. A 20-second Sume avatar clip costs $3.68 on standard, $4.90 on plus or $11.00 on max, once, however many trial users receive it. Render it with POST /v1/avatar-1.0/talking-video; the avatar video docs list the fields.

One action per clip

Pick the single step that predicts a trial user comes back and make the clip about only that. Avoid claims about speed you have not measured; say what the user does, not how fast it feels. Version the clip name and idempotency key when the product screen changes.

Cost of one nudge

Rendered once and reused.

Request

Add product_image if you want a product visible; that adds a per-second rate.
