What does your usable footage cost?
A delivered take can still miss the brief. Count discarded takes, confirmed restored credits and approved seconds before comparing generation prices.

Read the costs separately
No approved footage yet: cost per usable second is undefined, even if the generation itself was delivered.
Minimum pack cash assumes a fresh balance after all confirmed restorations. Pending jobs, the order of attempts and refunds, existing balances, payment fees and taxes can change your actual cash outlay. Use checkout receipts for what you paid.
Keep a reject in the budget
Example: six paid attempts, two confirmed restorations and 18 approved seconds. At $11.25 per five credits, four net credits allocate $9 to the batch: $0.50 per approved second. The minimum whole-pack purchase is $11.25, leaving one credit. This is hypothetical arithmetic, not a measured output success rate.
