GenMeter by Sentium · updated 2026-09-04

AI video costs, measured.

Compare generative video models by provider, resolution, input contract and audio. GenMeter separates the provider's base rate from the real cost of your selected scenario, including reference-video input when it is billable.

Formula

Output-only: rate × output seconds.
Input + output: rate × (reference-video seconds + output seconds).
Split input/output: output rate × output + input rate × video.
Input audio: rate × supplied audio seconds; generated video follows the audio duration.
Credit schedule: plan price ÷ monthly credits × credits for the selected duration.
Fixed credits: plan price ÷ monthly credits × credits per generation.
Credit rate: plan or pack price ÷ included credits × credits per output second × output seconds; generated audio and video-reference modes can change the burn.
Motion Control providers may meter the driving clip: reference-video rate × input-video seconds; its output follows that clip's duration.
Replicate Seedance video mode uses a flat video-input rate per output second; input duration is not metered.
Images and audio references are free unless the row says otherwise. A normalized 1s rate may not be a valid 1s API request.

Evidence policy

Official rates and locally captured live billing outrank old article prose.
BytePlus/fal formula totals are estimates; returned usage and final invoices control.
Subscription-effective rows appear only when both the plan allocation and model burn are publicly verifiable; they assume every monthly credit is consumed.

Sources

Provider pages and documentation behind the comparison. Final invoices and provider consoles remain authoritative.

Google Flow evidence: credit allocations and model burns, US plan prices, and video-editing limits. PixVerse evidence: API plans, packs and model burns, V6 capabilities, C1 capabilities, and creator plans.
