Cost uses the calculator formula with each segment's conditions above (shorts per month, retry multiplier, short length). The basis row per tool follows the calculator's representative rule (clip length closest to 5s, 720p first, then the lowest cost per short). The long-form preset is the cost per short from one 60-minute source cut into 5 shorts. FX as of 2026-10-18.
