Sume Remix vs Higgsfield Genjutsu
Video remix by the source second: motion transfer, object swap and restyle.
Sume Remix and Higgsfield Genjutsu both take a source video and remake it, with motion transfer, object swap or restyle. Sume Remix costs $0.123, $0.2766 and $0.6804 per second of source video at 480p, 720p and 1080p. Higgsfield's API lists Genjutsu at $0.318, $0.681 and $1.632 per input second and shows half of that as its discounted price. Sume Remix costs less than either at every resolution.

Genjutsu Light
Higgsfield also sells a lighter model, Genjutsu Light, with motion transfer and object swap. Its API lists $0.05, $0.10 and $0.20 per billed second at 480p, 720p and 1080p, where billed seconds are the output plus the input video, and it uses only the first 15 seconds of the source. Its discounted price is half of that.
Run Sume Remix
In Studio, Remix opens on motion transfer: pick a source video, add photos of the people or things to put in it, and the button shows the price before you run. Pick a style instead to restyle the whole video.
On the Sume API each workflow is its own endpoint, POST /v1/sume/remix/motion-transfer/v1.0, /object-swap/v1.0 and /restyle/v1.0, and the job is charged from the same balance as Studio, at the price on the API rate card.
Questions
- Why are the source seconds and the output seconds both counted?
- Sume Remix is charged for the seconds it reads and the seconds it makes. The output keeps the source's length, so the price per source second shown here already includes both.
- Which Genjutsu price should I compare with?
- Higgsfield's API pricing page shows a list price and a lower max-discount price, and its model page says the rates are before customer discounts. Sume Remix costs less than either at 480p, 720p and 1080p.
- Is a failed Remix charged?
- No. A generation that fails is refunded to the balance. See billing.
