Video generation API pricing: price per second by model and resolution

We read the video generation pricing pages and model docs of 14 providers on October 18, 2026 and recorded 64 models with 179 pricing rows. 33 models are priced per second of video, 4 per video, 5 in Kling Units per second, 4 in Runway credits per second, 10 per 1M tokens and 6 per an undefined "/ 1 count". Every price stays in the provider's own unit, next to the line it was copied from, and per-second prices are only ranked against the same resolution. 12 models are retiring or retired and sit in their own section.

Lowest per-second price, like for like

The lowest per-second output price at each resolution, compared only with other per-second prices at that same resolution. Retiring and retired models, provider estimates, credits, Units, token prices, undiscounted list prices and prices the docs disagree on are left out.

Every price, by unit

One table per pricing unit, so a per-second price never sits next to a per-video, credit or token price. Prices are copied exactly as each provider states them. 52 current, preview, legacy or unlabelled models are below; retiring and retired models have their own table further down.

Priced per second of video (53)

A dollar price for each second of generated video. Ranked by price only within the same resolution; rows without a stated resolution keep the provider's order.

Priced per 1M tokens (34)

Token rates for video output and prompt input. How many tokens one second of video uses depends on the model and resolution, so these are not per-second prices. Where the provider publishes its own per-second estimate it sits next to the token price, labelled. Grouped by model and never ranked across models.

Models that have shut down, or will within six months of October 18, 2026, including ones the provider still prices after its own retirement date. Dates come from each provider's deprecation or lifecycle page and are cross-checked against our deprecations tracker; each badge links to its row there. None of these feeds a "cheapest" figure on this page.

Why per-token, credit and per-video prices are not per-second prices

A per-second price is a dollar charge for each second of output at a stated resolution. A per-token price bills the tokens a video is turned into, and how many tokens one second uses depends on the model and the resolution: Vertex AI lists Gemini Omni Flash at 1931 tokens per second of 360p video and 17376 per second of 4k. The same token rate therefore produces very different costs per second, and input text, images and video are billed on top.

Where a provider works a token price out per second itself, as Google does for Gemini Omni Flash at 720p and BytePlus does for Seedance example clips, the figure is shown labelled as the provider's estimate next to the token price, because it holds only for that resolution, aspect ratio and clip length.

A per-video price is a flat charge for one clip of a set length, so a 5-second and a 10-second clip are different products, not one price per second. Runway credits and Kling Units are each provider's own currency, bought in packages. And Vertex AI prices Veo per "/ 1 count" without saying what a count is. That is why this page lists each unit in its own table and never converts one into another.

Where the docs disagree

Places where a provider's own pages said different things on October 18, 2026. Both sides are quoted as written; check the source before relying on either.

  • xAI: the markdown pricing page lists one flat rate, the rendered page prices by resolution

    The rendered pricing page at docs.x.ai lists separate 480p, 720p and 1080p rates for each Grok Imagine video model. The markdown version of the same page lists one flat per-second rate per model, equal to the 480p tier.

  • Replicate Wan 3.0: the billing table and the readme give different per-second prices

    The billing criteria on the alibaba/wan-3 page charge $0.025, $0.05 and $0.10 per second of output at 480p, 720p and 1080p. The readme on the same page says $0.05, $0.10 and $0.20, and a banner says Wan 3.0 is 30% off this week. The billing rows are half the readme prices, which is not 30% off.

Which token-priced video models publish a per-second estimate?

Gemini Omni Flash: approximately $0.10 per second at 720p. BytePlus Dreamina Seedance 2.5: 0.103 per second at 480p and 0.569 per second at 1080p. BytePlus Dreamina Seedance 2.0: 0.07 per second at 480p and 0.78 per second at 4K. BytePlus Dreamina Seedance 2.0 Fast: 0.06 per second at 480p. BytePlus Dreamina Seedance 2.0 Mini: 0.04 per second at 480p. These models are billed per token, so these are the provider's own estimates for one clip shape, not per-second prices; this page shows them labelled next to the token price and never ranks them against per-second prices.

Verified from each provider's own pricing pages and video model docs; every quote was string-matched against the page that day. Prices are shown in the provider's own unit and never converted between units. Retirement dates are cross-checked against our deprecations tracker. Prices change without notice; check the linked source before you commit a budget to one.

Snapshot of October 18, 2026: 64 models and 179 pricing rows from 14 providers, 52 active, 4 retiring and 8 retired. 438 of 438 quotes matched.

Three Veo guide audio quotes are trimmed to drop the check-mark emoji the page prints before "Always on"; the trimmed text and "Always on" were re-matched against the saved page.
