Luma prices Ray3.2 in 5-second blocks: 720p costs $0.30 per block ($0.06/sec), while 1080p jumps to $1.20 per block ($0.24/sec) — a 4× step for resolution, the steepest quality surcharge in this layer, and HDR on top of 1080p doubles it again. Staying at 720p is the budget play, much like the domestic standard tiers.
Google, Runway, Luma, xAI and Pika all publish a per-second list price. Google retired the Veo 3.1 preview line on 2026-10-22 in favour of Gemini Omni, so those dead tiers are gone. Figures here come from each vendor’s own pricing page (checked 2026-11); the CNY column uses the PBoC mid rate, not a platform retail mark-up. Subscription-only tools (Midjourney, Adobe Firefly) and the retired Sora 2 API are not listed.
