Capability profile
Operator guidance
First choice for native audio video generation as of mid-2026. Standard tier ($0.40/s) for maximum quality; Standard 4K ($0.60/s) when 4K resolution is required at full fidelity. Fast tier ($0.10–0.30/s) for latency-sensitive pipelines. Lite tier ($0.05–0.08/s) for high-volume workflows where cost compounds — uniquely offers native audio at the lowest per-second price in the market. Preview status: production deployments should monitor for GA announcement and potential pricing changes.
Use cases
- High-production video advertising with native audio (Standard tier)
- 4K cinematic content at full quality (Standard 4K tier)
- Cost-sensitive social content needing audio-visual sync (Lite tier)
- High-volume production pipelines requiring native audio ($0.05/s Lite 720p)
Limitations
- Preview status; pricing and availability may change before GA
- Max 8 seconds per clip
- Standard 4K at $0.60/s is the most expensive tier in the video registry
- No explicit camera control API
- Audio cannot be disabled to reduce cost
- Lite tier quality tradeoffs not fully documented as of 2026-06-25
