At 1,000 ten-second generations, Veo 3.1 is about $4000 and Seedance 2.0 Fast is about $2419, before retries and ancillary fees.
Method
We prioritize first-party API pricing and explicitly label resolution and audio. Speed descriptions are directional unless the provider publishes a repeatable benchmark.
