# Veo 3.1 vs Runway Gen-4.5: video pricing

These are prices for the listed platform, resolution and billing route. They do not measure output quality or latency. The two rows have no shared listed resolution, so each uses its own base setting. Both sources were checked on 2026-10-07.

## Arithmetic and limits

For per-second API rows, 100 five-second clips cost 100 × max(5 × listed credits/second, minimum credits) × $0.01/credit, or 100 × 5 × the direct USD/second rate. Input/reference charges and extras are excluded.

Veo 3.1: Paid tier, video with audio; 4K costs $0.60/s. Only successful videos are billed. Runway Gen-4.5: Runway Dev API credits; 12 credits/s × $0.01/credit. Pro formats cost extra.

Maximum duration: TBA versus TBA. Concurrency/queue: TBA versus Tier-dependent; excess tasks queued (see Runway tier limits).. Watermark: TBA versus TBA. Commercial use: TBA versus TBA. Region: TBA versus TBA. TBA means unverified.
