Price by resolution
Rates are linear in duration, so you can scale any figure in the table.
| Resolution | Sume rate per second | 29 s arithmetic | 29 s price | 2 s minimum | 30 s maximum |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 480p | $0.0625 | 29 x $0.0625 = $1.8125 | $1.81 | $0.13 | $1.88 |
| 720p | $0.125 | 29 x $0.125 = $3.625 | $3.63 | $0.25 | $3.75 |
| 1080p | $0.25 | 29 x $0.25 = $7.25 | $7.25 | $0.50 | $7.50 |
Inputs Wan 3.0 accepts on a long clip
Wan 3.0 supports text-to-video, image-to-video with first and last frames, and reference-to-video with images, video and audio references. The Video Router constraints list caps on those references: up to 10 reference images, up to 5 reference videos (15 seconds in total, at least 16 fps) and up to 5 reference audio clips (15 seconds in total).
Aspect ratios on this row are auto, adaptive, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4 and 9:16. 21:9 is not on the list.

When 29 seconds is the wrong plan
A single 29-second generation is the most expensive way to find out your prompt is off. A common pattern is to draft at 480p for $1.81, review the motion, and only then run the 1080p version for $7.25. The draft costs one quarter of the final, because 480p is $0.0625 per second against $0.25 at 1080p.
Poll with a moderate interval; the docs suggest about 30 seconds, and long clips can take several minutes.
Checking the result
A 30-second ceiling means 29 seconds leaves one second of headroom if you plan to trim the head or tail. Download from unsigned_urls[0], inspect it with video inspect for duration, resolution and frame rate, and only then send it into a timeline.
Video inspect probes a Sume-hosted clip and returns sampled stills, so it is the cheapest way to confirm the clip really is the length and size you ordered before you build a longer edit around it.
