Workload-first comparison
Calculate your AI video API cost
Estimate monthly generation cost from source-linked checked observations. Every result keeps its freshness label and source, and the calculator never gates the answer behind email.
Your result
Choose a model and workload to compare recorded provider configurations.
The calculator excludes storage, retries, failed generations, moderation, networking, support, taxes, and downstream processing. Recheck every linked provider source.
Questions developers ask
Does this estimate include retries and failed generations?
No. Enter a clip count that includes the retries and failed generations you expect, then add storage, networking, moderation, support, and taxes separately.
Why can the same model have different provider costs?
Provider route, tier, resolution, duration, audio, region, and billing unit can differ. APIDir only compares an observation when its exact configuration is visible.
How current are the prices in the calculator?
Every result shows a freshness label, check date, and provider source. Stale observations remain evidence but cannot support a cheapest or savings claim.
