Wan 3.0 is the cheaper one by a wide margin. A 10-second 720p clip is $1.00 at fal list, $1.25 on Sume, while Seedance 2.5 is about $4.62 at list and $5.78 on Sume, roughly 4.6 times as much. Both reach 30 seconds. Price is only one axis, so the second half of this page lists what else differs in the Sume docs.

The numbers

fal's Wan 3.0 page: "$0.05 480p, $0.10 720p, or $0.20 1080p" per second. fal's Seedance 2.5 page: $0.0214 per 1,000 video tokens, which is $0.4622 per second at 1280x720. Sume bills list x 1.25.

What differs besides price

From Sume's Video Router docs: Wan 3.0 accepts 2-30 s at 480p/720p/1080p with text, image plus end frame and reference inputs and audio; Seedance 2.5 accepts 4-30 s at the same resolutions with text, start/end frames and image, video and audio references. Wan's minimum is shorter, Seedance's reference inputs are wider. A common split is Wan for volume and drafts, Seedance for the final that needs references. See Wan vs Seedance and the Wan price table.
