Use pika-15 with model, prompt and pikaffect at /v1/videos. Choose a documented effect such as Inflate, Levitate, Melt, Squish or Ta-da. The request also exposes image as a string or an array of up to ten strings, and a negative_prompt field.
Describe the subject that should undergo the selected transformation and the desired final appearance. An image can supply the visible starting material; the prompt should identify the motion and framing to preserve around the effect. Keep the selected effect value literal and choose source material that makes the transformation easy to inspect in the finished clip.
Submit the shot once through /v1/videos, retain the returned request ID and poll that original operation through /v1/videos/{request_id}. Save every completed video output and the complete response before reviewing the action, framing and end state against the brief.

The displayed rates estimate the cost before generation. The final charge is calculated from the cost recorded for the original generation. Measured output duration and forecast quantities are not the final billable quantity.
Tariff references do not add request options. Supported parameters are listed for the selected method.
Match each charge to the conditions shown. Use one rate for each set of alternative configurations.

Ailoot reserves an estimated amount before a request. After the result, it settles the final charge from measured usage. Streaming settlement uses the final usage record. How reservation and settlement work →
