How these numbers were computed
- fal.ai (19B): $0.0018/MP (fal.ai listed rate, captured in FairStack operational cost audit, 2026-03-23 (price-audit-full.json)) × 0.9216 MP per 720p frame × 24 fps = $0.0398/sec.
- fal.ai (19B Distilled): $0.0008/MP (FairStack operational cost audit, 2026-03-23 (price-audit-full.json)) × 0.9216 MP × 24 fps = $0.0177/sec.
- Self-hosted (rented GPU): Open weights; distilled variant on a rented consumer-class GPU ≈ $0.01 per output-second at 720p, excluding setup and idle time.
Megapixel billing means higher resolutions scale cost linearly with pixel count; canonical rate assumes 720p at 24 fps.
What would LTX-2 cost you?
| Model · provider | $/sec (720p) | Total | Status |
