Which channels here built the model they sell
Nine of the sixteen channels publishing a rate here made the model behind it. The other seven resell other companies' weights, and the pattern that matters is not price: clip ceilings, concurrency, credit validity and failure billing come almost entirely from makers. As of 2026-10-25.
| Channel | Whose models it prices | Terms published beside the rate |
|---|---|---|
| Kling AI | Its own | Concurrency per package, and a 180-day validity |
| LTX Studio | Its own | A band rather than a grid, and no rate on the product pages |
| MiniMax | Its own | Two models with an overlapping resolution tier |
| PixVerse | Its own | One dollar reference for every credit, and a refund note for failed tasks |
| Runway | Its own | A credit price beside the rate, and expiry rules per plan |
| Sora | Its own | A batch tier halving every figure on the page |
| Veo | Its own | That a failed generation is not charged |
| Vidu | Its own | A price for concurrency, and an off-peak halving |
| Wan | Its own | A thirty-second generation ceiling |
| Dreamina | Its parent company's model | A plan figure billed annually |
| fal | Other companies' | The unit it meters in, and the average clip its comparison assumes |
| Novita AI | Other companies' | Audio as a separate price step |
| Replicate | Other companies' | That most models are billed by run time |
| Runware | Other companies' | A struck-through cell, and per-variant figures |
| SceneMixer | Other companies', inside a pipeline | A credit price, a clip ceiling per tier, and a price for joining |
| WaveSpeed AI | Other companies' | A clause qualifying every figure on the page |
Inclusion rule. Channels in this register with a published per-second figure. The middle column records the relationship the channel's own pages describe, not a corporate structure. Order. Channels pricing their own models first, then the rest; alphabetical within each group.
1Terms travel with the model, prices travel with the shop
Every clip ceiling in this register comes from a maker or from a tool that wraps a model in its own pipeline. Three of the four concurrency answers come from makers. The one page stating that failures are not charged is a maker's. Resellers publish rates and very little else.
That is not a criticism of resale. A shop's job is to price access, and the model's limits are properties of the model. It does mean a comparison assembled only from resale pages is missing the half that decides whether a rate is reachable.
2Reselling is visible in the unit as well as the price
Two resellers here meter in something other than a plain second because their upstream sellers do not agree on a unit, and passing each model through in the shape it arrived in is more honest than normalising it. One page says so explicitly.
So two resellers will look different from each other largely because their catalogues overlap differently, not because either chose a pricing philosophy. Comparing shops is mostly comparing which makers they carry.
3The pipeline case is a third category
One channel here resells generation inside a product that also holds a script, a cast, an assembly step and a separately priced join. It charges about double a maker's figure for comparable output, and it publishes a credit price, a clip ceiling per tier and a rate for joining.
Against a bare API rate that comparison is between two purchases rather than two prices. The per-second figure is dearer by design, and the terms published around it are closer to a maker's page than to a reseller's.
