For teams building a video workflow, the key advantage is the combination of **async execution**, **multiple generation modes**, and **per-second billing**.
What to expect
- One video per generation
- Duration support from 4 to 8 seconds
- 9:16 and 16:9 aspect ratios
- Reference image, first/last frame, and source video inputs supported
- Best suited for short clips rather than long-form video
