Verdicts

Clueso

Editable projects and articles through official MCP. Large schema inventory in the historical Anchor check.

Replicate video models

One bearer token reaches more than twenty official video models at published per-second prices, each with a typed input schema, and failed runs aren't charged. Tokens have no scopes or spend cap, no SLA is published, and the terms let Replicate withdraw any model without notice.

Before you call either

Clueso

  1. Keep the existing clueso-video identity when configuring or linking the connector.
  2. Generate narration before timing visual elements.
  3. Duplicate a project before destructive edits and confirm export costs.

Replicate video models

  1. Call official models at POST /v1/models/{owner}/{name}/predictions with no version, then poll GET /v1/predictions/{id} or pass webhook. Video jobs usually outlast the 60-second Prefer: wait window
  2. Download the output file within the hour. API predictions lose inputs, outputs and logs after 60 minutes
  3. Read the model's price tiers before setting resolution, mode or generate_audio. Kling 3.0 runs from $0.168 to $0.42 a second and Veo 3.1 doubles with audio
  4. Send Cancel-After on every create. There is no idempotency key, so a blind retry is a second paid video
  5. Keep credit above $20 or enable auto-reload. Low balances are throttled, and granted credit with no card is held to 6 requests a minute
