Every Versely video generator that publishes a duration list, ranked by the shortest duration it supports. The shortest available is 1 seconds.
Useful when you want to test a prompt on a two- or three-second clip rather than committing credits to a long render — on per-second billing the shortest supported duration is also the cheapest way to see what a model does with your prompt.
Ranking method
