--dry-run Validate and price the call without running it.

It also takes the common options.

Models and price

Motif picks the Model for the Tier. Prices are per image where a Model has one; any other shows how it is billed. A rate that depends on the size of the file or the length of the clip is a rate, not a total, so check it with a dry run.

Model Chosen at Price
Patina PBR Maps Balanced $0.01 base
Patina Material Extract Balanced, with --extract $0.10

Dry run

Check the cost before you spend. The output path is where the file would go.
