AI model pricing, per model

Every model Forge AI can run, and what one generation costs at the provider’s own rate: video from about $0.01 to $1.04 per second, images from $0.02 to $0.16 and upscaling from $0.04 per second. You pay fal.ai, Kie, Google AI Studio or OpenRouter directly on your own key, so nothing on this page carries a platform markup.

The tables below are generated from the same cost tables the app prices a graph with, so a node’s estimate and this page can never disagree. Rates are what the provider charges at the time of the update above, and superseded models stay runnable even when they leave the picker.

Veo on Kie, by resolution

Kie bills Veo per video rather than per second, so a 30 second render costs the same as an 8 second one. Resolution is the only thing that moves the price.

What a finished ad costs

A typical 10 second UGC ad: one character image on Nano Banana 2 at $0.08, one product composite at $0.08, a 10 second render on Kling 2.6 Pro at $0.07 a second for $0.70, and an optional SeedVR upscale at $0.06 a second for $0.60. That is roughly $1.50 all in. Dropping the upscale takes it under $0.90, and moving the render to Kling 1.6 Standard at $0.056 a second as well brings it to about $0.72.

Questions

What is the cheapest AI video model?

On Kie, Grok Imagine Video 1.5 at about $0.012 per second at 480p, then Kling 2.6 at $0.055. On fal, Kling 1.6 Standard at $0.056 per second and Kling 2.6 Pro without audio at $0.07.

How much does Veo 3.1 cost per video?

On fal, Veo 3.1 is $0.40 per second with audio at 720p or 1080p, $0.20 without, and $0.60 at 4K with audio. On Kie the Veo tiers are flat per video: Lite $0.15, Fast $0.30 and Quality $1.25 at 720p, rising to $0.75, $0.90 and $1.85 at 4K.

Does Forge AI add a markup to these prices?

No. You connect your own fal.ai, Kie, Google AI Studio or OpenRouter key and the provider bills you directly at its published rate. Forge AI never sells credits and takes no cut of a generation.

How much does a finished AI ad cost?

Roughly $0.30 to $5 in provider spend for image generation and the video render combined. A 10 second Kling 2.6 Pro render at $0.07 a second is $0.70, and the character image behind it is a few cents.
