A save-the-date needs two facts and a warm tone, and it can run as a 9:16 clip that guests share. At Sume's listed no-product rates, 20 seconds costs about $3.68 on Standard, $4.90 on Plus and $11.00 on Max. A face you describe works well here, because the couple may not want to appear.

The script and the call

Write about 20 seconds: names, date, place, and where to find details. Say the names in the script the way you want them pronounced and read the output before you share it.

Create an avatar with POST /v1/avatar-1.0/generate, using a text prompt, then call talking-video with the handle and the script. If you use a photo of a real person, get their consent first.

What it costs

At 20 seconds: Sume reserves on its planned billable seconds, which can differ a little from the length of your script, so these are estimates.

Look before you render

Spend the preview on the setting. A scene prompt such as a garden or a candlelit room can change the first frame a lot, and previews let you regenerate the stills until you like them before the full render.

Label it

Tell viewers the presenter is AI-generated. Sume's disclosure record post lists the job fields worth saving per clip, and authored caption cues can burn a disclosure line into the video.
