When the Ultimate plan beats paying per clip
If you make a lot of 480p MiniMax H3, Hailuo 2.3 or Wan clips and can wait for slower queues, Leonardo’s Ultimate plan ($60 a month) with relaxed video and no cap on those models will cost less than paying per clip. On Viralance a 10-second 768p MiniMax H3 clip is 6 credits ($1.80 on the Mini pack, $1.09 on Business).
Paying per clip makes more sense for VEO 3.1, Kling 3.0 or Seedance clips at 720p or 1080p, and for months when you only need a few.
Where Leonardo.Ai is ahead
Image generation and design: Leonardo’s image models, editing canvas and custom model training (10 to 50 a month by plan) are beyond what Viralance offers. Its API is pay as you go with credit that does not expire.
