Pyramid Flow team · Text → video · 2B params · Stability AI Community License (SD3-based weights) (commercial OK)

A training-efficient autoregressive video model using pyramidal flow matching to make up to 10s 768p clips on low VRAM; SD3-based weights free commercially under the $1M threshold.

What it costs to run — $0 markup

• On your own machine — $0. Runs free if you have about 12 GB of VRAM (384p under ~10GB, 768p ~10-12GB; efficient pyramidal flow matching), via Diffusers.
• Rent a GPU — from $0.26/hr. Fits RTX 3090 24GB at the direct vendor price ($0 markup) — pay only for the minutes you generate.
• Download the weights — free. Open weights at rain1011/pyramid-flow-sd3.

Note: generative-media models are billed per image / per second / per minute on hosted services — not per token. Running locally or on your own rented GPU is usually far cheaper and keeps your data on your machine.
