MiniMax H3 (minimax-h3) costs $0.375 for a 5-second clip at 768p on Sume, and $1.125 for 15 seconds. It takes 5 to 15 seconds, and its native resolutions are 480p and 768p; 768p is first-class and 720p is not a value. Sume bills 2K and 4K upscales if your request includes them.

Reading the table

The step from 480p to 768p is only $0.125 on a 10-second clip, so drafting at 480p saves little here. The jump to 2K more than doubles the 768p price. Draft at 768p and decide on the upscale at the end.

Request

Use 768p, not 720p: the docs list 768p as the native tier and 720p is not a catalog value for this model.

curl -X POST https://api.sume.com/v1/videos \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUME_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "minimax-h3",
    "prompt": "Rain on a neon street, slow tracking shot",
    "duration": 10,
    "resolution": "768p"
  }'

Budgeting a batch

Twenty 10-second clips at 768p are $15.00. The same twenty at 4K are $40.00. Reference-to-video requests can add a charge per extra reference image on top of the per-second rate, so a request with many images is not priced by the table alone.

Sume reserves the full price at submit, so the number in the table is also the amount that must be free in the balance when you send the request. If it is not, the call fails with 402 insufficient_credits before any provider work starts.

Read the live rate from the catalog before a large run; prices are catalog data and can change.
