Why it costs less
Same official Vidu Q3 Pro, lower price
The model and its output are the same; the cost of serving it is lower. How our inference works.
Official partnerships
Direct partnerships with the official model labs give us their lowest partner pricing on official models like Vidu Q3 Pro.
Our own GPU inference
For open-source models, our own GPU inference — optimized kernels, warm pools and per-model tuning — makes generation several times faster and lowers the cost further.
Automatic routing
Every Vidu Q3 Pro request is routed to the most cost-effective healthy route, with live health checks and failover.
Spend less
Ways to pay even less for Vidu Q3 Pro
Draft at 540p, deliver at 1080p
A second of 540p costs $0.0337 — 38% of the 1080p rate ($0.0897/s). Iterate on prompts and camera moves cheaply, then render the final cut with the same prompt.
Sound is already in the price
Vidu Q3 Pro generates synchronized audio at no extra cost, so there is no separate charge for ambience, effects or dialogue.
Test with 1-second clips
You pay per second of output (1–16 s per clip). A 1-second 540p test costs $0.034; lengthen only the takes you keep.
Consider Vidu Q3 Turbo for volume
In the same family, Vidu Q3 Turbo costs $0.0486/s at 1080p vs $0.0897/s for Vidu Q3 Pro — 46% less.
Failed generations cost nothing
The price is held when you submit and refunded in full if a generation fails or you cancel it while it is queued. You only pay for outputs you get.
Volume pricing below these rates
Committed monthly volume unlocks rates below the public price list, plus invoicing and dedicated capacity.
