H3 Max Recast on a 8-second video: person swap price

H3 Max Recast (h3-max-recast) replaces the people in a source video with the people from 1 to 4 photos, one photo per person. On a 8-second source it costs $3.00 at 768p and $4.50 at 1080p on Sume.

It accepts 5 to 30 seconds, the prompt is optional, and the duration is the source length (Sume's Video Router docs, read 2026-10-06).

What is the price per source second?

Provider list is $0.30 per second at 768p and $0.45 at 1080p; Sume bills that times 1.25 and rounds source seconds up.

How do I send it?

Put the source in video_url and the people in reference_image_urls.
