Last checked . Prices are re-checked every week (planned: Wednesdays). Each row shows its own check date; a row older than 14 days is out of date.
Not listed because no verified price exists: Vidu Q4 (and Q3) (official app plan), Midjourney Video (official app plan).
How to read the table
- Per second is the headline unit. For models billed per clip, it is the clip price divided by the clip length, and the row is flagged derived. For app plans it is credits times the plan's credit value, also derived.
- Basis says which resolution and audio setting the price applies to. A 1080p price with audio is not comparable with a 480p silent price, so filter before you compare.
- Route is how you pay: API (pay as you go from the maker), App plan (a monthly subscription with credits) or Reseller (fal.ai, Replicate, or a third-party model sold inside another app).
- Shut down models are hidden by default. Their last listed price stays in the data so the history is complete. Tick the status box to show them.
- Promo means a temporary discount with an end date. Tick Apply promo prices to use the discounted number. Promos that have ended are flagged and ignored.
- Plan tiers: for app plans the table shows the cheapest tier per model by default, because credit value differs by plan. Tick Show every plan tier to see all of them.

Why prices differ so much between routes
The same model can cost very different amounts depending on where you buy it. For example $0.10/s (checked Nov 5, 2026) for Veo 3.1 Fast with audio at 720p on Vertex AI, against $0.15/s (checked Nov 5, 2026) on fal.ai. Seedance 2.0 is $0.07/s (checked Nov 5, 2026) at 480p on BytePlus and $0.303/s (checked Nov 5, 2026) at 720p with audio on fal.ai. Details are in the reseller comparison.
Data and updates
All rows come from one open dataset, offers.json, built from the model, plan and reseller files. Every row links to the page it was read from. Prices are re-checked weekly and the date on each row is the date of its own check. If a row is older than two weeks, treat it as out of date and check the provider.
Prices that are not published, or that could not be verified against a primary source, are not shown. The methodology page lists the rules for derived prices, promos and nulls.

Questions people ask
How often are prices updated?
The whole dataset is re-checked weekly. Each row shows its own check date. Fast-moving items such as promos and new model launches are also logged on the price history page.
Why is a model I know missing?
Either it has no verified price, or it is shut down and hidden by default. Vidu and Midjourney video, for example, have no per-video price on an official page (their plans are priced by credits or GPU hours), so they are not listed with a guess.
Are these prices before tax?
Providers list prices in US dollars before local taxes. App stores and some regions add VAT or other charges. Use the currency selector for a rough conversion with the ECB reference rate on the methodology page.
