Seconds per budget
Rates are the Sume price per output second (provider list times 1.25) at a 10-second clip, read 2026-10-09. Seconds are the budget divided by the rate, rounded down. This ignores each model's minimum and maximum clip length, which the next table shows.
| Model | Resolution | Rate per second | Seconds for $40 | Clip range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 | 1080p | $0.1880 | 212 | 3 to 10 s |
| MiniMax H3 Max | 1080p | $0.2000 | 200 | 5 to 15 s |
| Wan 3.0 | 1080p | $0.2500 | 160 | 2 to 30 s |
| Seedance 2.5 | 1080p | $1.4220 | 28 | 4 to 30 s |
Reading it
Seconds are not shots. A 5-second shot on Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 costs $0.94, so the same $40 covers 42 such shots; each clip price is rounded up to a whole cent.
Sume reserves the full clip price when you submit and answers 402 insufficient_credits if the balance cannot cover it, so a budget this size is also the largest single job you can start.
