With a reference video the provider bills at least output seconds + ⌈⅔ × output seconds⌉ (its minimum for video input). A hold is reserved up front — with a reference video it covers up to 15 s of reference video (30 s on Seedance 2.5) — and settled against the reported tokens, refunding the rest; failed tasks are not charged.",
