HunyuanVideo

Trade-offs: the full output envelope is not confirmed, generation modes are not confirmed, audio support is not confirmed, and pricing is not normalized to a per-second rate.
Google Veo 3.1
Strengths: a documented output envelope (4s / 6s / 8s (8s required for extension, reference images, 1080p and 4K) · 720p (default) · 1080p (8s only) · 4K (8s only, not on Lite) · 24fps), documented generation controls (T2V · I2V · Ingredients (up to 3 reference images, not on Lite) · First–last frame · Scene extension (~148s max, not on Lite)), documented audio support (Included in video pricing), published exact per-second API rates, and a checked plan, credit or no-rate path.
