Cost of 10, 100 and 1,000 five-second AI clips on Sume
A five-second clip bills 3.75 to 37.5 cents per second on Sume, so $0.19 to $1.88. The budget table for 10, 100 and 1,000 clips on Wan 3.0, H3, H3 Max and Omni.
A five-second clip costs $0.19 on Gemini Omni Flash at 360p, $0.32 on Wan 3.0, H3 or H3 Max at 480p, and $1.88 on Omni at 4K. At 100 clips that is $19.00 to $188.00; at 1,000 clips, $190.00 to $1,880.00.
Sume bills video per second at the provider list times 1.25. The catalog formula rounds each job up to a whole cent, which only matters on the cheaper rows. All four models accept five seconds (Wan 3.0 allows 2 to 30, H3 and H3 Max 5 to 15, Omni 3 to 10).
The table
Rates are USD per output second as the Sume catalog bills them. Each clip total is rate x 5, rounded up to the cent; the 10, 100 and 1,000 columns multiply that billed price.
The first row is the cheapest in the table and the last the dearest, so a reader can place their own plan between the two.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gemini Omni Flash 360p | $0.0375 | $0.19 | $1.90 | $19.00 | $190.00 |

Where the price steps are
Within one model, the resolution step is the big lever. Wan 3.0 goes from $0.32 at 480p to $0.63 at 720p to $1.25 at 1080p: each step doubles the price. Gemini Omni Flash 4K costs ten times its 360p tier. Choose the lowest resolution that survives your final delivery size.
Across models at the same resolution, the spread is narrower. At 480p three models bill exactly the same $0.0625 per second; at 1080p the range is $0.1875 to $0.25. Pick on output, not price, for those rows.
Budget math you can reuse
The formula is clips x seconds x rate, with each clip rounded up to a cent. For 40 clips of 8 seconds on Wan 3.0 at 720p: 8 x $0.125 = $1.00 per clip, $40.00 in total. For a 15-second ad on H3 Max at 768p: 15 x $0.10 = $1.50 per clip.
Remember the keep rate. If one clip in three is used, divide every figure above by the keep rate: the cost per kept five-second clip at 480p is $0.32 x 3 = $0.96.
- Cheapest row: Gemini Omni Flash 360p at $0.0375 per second.
- Same price at 480p across Wan 3.0, H3 and H3 Max: $0.0625 per second.
- Most expensive row here: Gemini Omni Flash 4K at $0.375 per second.
Before you scale
Submit one clip per model and read the billed amount on the receipt before you multiply. Reserve-and-capture means a successful job captures its reserved estimate; see generation admission. The Video Router docs list each model's accepted durations and resolutions, which can change.
