One API for every generative image, video and audio model
Access text-to-image, image-to-video, text-to-video, upscaling, background removal, face swap and lip sync through the same authentication and billing setup.
Pick the provider that is cheapest or fastest for a given model without rewriting your integration, and switch as pricing and quality change.
Compare models with published rankings and a leaderboard, read request-level docs, and plug in via the CLI or MCP server for agent workloads.
Build multi-step pipelines, explore prompts in an interactive studio, and let agent or workflow features chain several models into one finished asset.
Turn text, images and references into cinematic AI video
Type a written prompt and Vidu builds a coherent short video, including camera moves, pacing, and lighting described in the text.
Upload a still image or illustration and animate it into motion while preserving the original art style and subjects.
Feed in reference images or clips so the same face, outfit, product, or character stays recognizable across every shot and scene.
Purpose-built handling of anime and 2D styles, from expressive facial close-ups to era-specific illustration looks.
