What did each usable shot cost?
Compare up to three workflows using your actual attempt log. Include creative retakes and separate replacement shots, then count only the shots and seconds you accepted for the final edit. Apply the same story, continuity and quality checks to every workflow.
Consumed request cost means the value of credits or balance actually used, including discarded creative takes. Subtract restored funding once. Use a consistent credit valuation; unused pack credits belong to the purchase budget above. Count retained footage once. These are your observations, not measured model success rates.
Unit costs stay unavailable when accepted output is zero or missing. A lower cost does not establish equivalent footage, controls, reliability or character identity. This worksheet values already reviewed results; it does not predict the next take or repair video.
THE IMPORTANT PART
Clips are the building blocks.
This is a planning estimate, not a promise that one prompt will create a continuous film. You will write or adapt each scene, choose the usable takes, and edit them together. Include expected alternate takes above to budget for creative reruns.
The estimate finds the lowest-cost combination of current credit packs covering your entered credit quote and planned requests. It assumes each request succeeds and does not subtract existing credits . Unused credits remain available across supported tools. Confirmed technical failures restore the exact original funding; restored credits are not a cash refund. A completed result you simply want to redo is a new, paid request. Actual encoded duration can vary slightly. The generation budget does not guarantee usable seconds or include editing.
SeedanceCheap offers a studio and API, currently available requested formats and private MP4 downloads for 48 hours after delivery. Buy the same credit packs by card or crypto: 1 credit for $2.50, 2 for $5, 5 for $11.25, 10 for $20 or 20 for $30, or 100 for $99. Up to five parallel jobs share rendering availability. Check the studio for current availability and waits; completion by a deadline is not guaranteed. Earlier invoices keep their frozen terms.
