Veo 3.1 Lite, Fast, Standard at 1080p for 8 s, and Sume rows
Google lists Veo 3.1 at 1080p for $0.08, $0.12 and $0.40 a second (Lite, Fast, Standard): $0.64, $0.96, $3.20 for 8 s. Sume's 1080p rows: $1.50 to $2.00.
Veo 3.1 now comes in three price tiers on Google's pricing page, and a buyer comparing 1080p video usually wants one number: the cost of a typical clip. Eight seconds is a convenient length, so this post does the multiplication and then lines it up against the 1080p rows that Sume can actually run.
Veo 3.1 list prices at 1080p
Google lists Veo 3.1 Lite at $0.08 per second at 1080p, Fast at $0.12 and Standard at $0.40, all with audio (read 2026-10-05). Multiply by 8: $0.64, $0.96 and $3.20.
Sume's 1080p rows for 8 seconds
Veo is not in the Sume catalog. The 1080p rows that are: gemini-omni-flash-1.1 (list $0.15 per second), minimax-h3-max ($0.16, a latent refinement from 768p) and wan-3.0 ($0.20). Sume bills list times 1.25, rounded up to the cent.
| Option | Where | List per second | 8 seconds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Veo 3.1 Lite | Google API | $0.08 | $0.64 |
| Veo 3.1 Fast | Google API | $0.12 | $0.96 |
| Veo 3.1 Standard | Google API | $0.40 | $3.20 |
| Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 | Sume | $0.15 | $1.50 |
| MiniMax H3 Max | Sume | $0.16 | $1.60 |
| Wan 3.0 | Sume | $0.20 | $2.00 |
Reading the table
- Sume's rows land between Veo Fast and Veo Standard at 1080p, because the 1.25 multiple pays for the shared API and wallet.
- H3 Max 1080p is refined from native 768p, so judge its sharpness on your own frames.
- Omni is the cheapest of these three Sume rows at 1080p, but it caps at 10 seconds.
