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 $50 | Clip range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MiniMax H3 | 768p | $0.0750 | 666 | 5 to 15 s |
| MiniMax H3 Max | 768p | $0.1000 | 500 | 5 to 15 s |
| Wan 3.0 | 720p | $0.1250 | 400 | 2 to 30 s |
| Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 | 720p | $0.1250 | 400 | 3 to 10 s |
| Seedance 2.5 | 720p | $0.5780 | 86 | 4 to 30 s |
Reading it
Seconds are not shots. A 5-second shot on MiniMax H3 costs $0.38, so the same $50 covers 131 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.
