Topview Plus $36 and Ultra $50 yearly totals vs Sume avatar seconds

Topview AI lists Plus at $36 a month ($432 a year) and Ultra at $50 a month ($599.90 a year). If you spent those same yearly totals on Sume Standard avatar video with no product image at $0.184 a second, $432 buys 2,347 seconds and $599.90 buys 3,260 seconds, roughly 39 and 54 minutes.

What do the Topview plans cost per year?

The pricing page shows the monthly-equivalent price and the yearly total for each plan. Plus is 100 credits a month, Ultra is 500 credits a month, and Team is $56 per seat a month ($672 a year per seat) with 500 credits per seat. The page also says monthly credits do not carry over, and that unused credits move when you upgrade or switch to annual billing.

Why compare spend instead of credits?

The Topview page lists credits per month but does not state how many credits one avatar second uses, and it mentions unlimited generation tiers for some tools. A credit-to-seconds conversion would be a guess, so the table converts dollars only. Treat it as a budget view: what the same yearly money buys when it is spent per second.

What does Sume charge on top of the seconds?

A new avatar on Sume costs $0.95 to create, through a prompt, a structured profile or a reference image. Video is then billed per rendered second by tier: Standard $0.184, Plus $0.245, Max $0.55, plus a few cents per second if you add a product image. Output is 720p and each job runs 4 to 60 seconds.

Paying per second means a quiet month costs nothing, while a heavy month costs more than a flat plan might. Topview's credits reset monthly, so unused months are lost by its own terms.

Which should you pick?

Pick the per-second route if your volume is uneven, or you want to choose Standard, Plus or Max per clip. Pick a plan if you value the other tools in a plan's bundle and will use the monthly credits every month. Compare on your own monthly seconds before paying for a year.
