Alibaba Wan 2.5 Image To Video

Alibaba Wan 2.5 Image To Video

Playground

WAN 2.5 converts text or images into videos (480p/720p/1080p) with synced audio, faster and more affordable than Google Veo3. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.

Features

WAN 2.5 is an advanced image-to-video model on Cloud’s DashScope. It generates high-quality videos from images and supports output resolutions of 480p, 720p, and 1080p.

What makes it stand out?

• More affordable: Wan 2.5 is more streamlined and cost-effective - reducing creator expenses and offering more options.
• One-pass A/V sync: Wan 2.5 creates a fully synchronized video (audio/voiceover + lip-sync) from a single, well-structured prompt - no separate recording or manual alignment required.
• Multilingual friendly: Wan 2.5 reliably processes like Chinese prompts for A/V-synced videos.
• Longer duration & more video size options: Wan 2.5 delivers up to 10 seconds and 6 aspect/size options, enabling more storytelling room and publishing flexibility.
• Custom Voice: Add your own audio or let the model generate one for you. Plug-and-play, easy to swap!

Designed For

• Marketing teams: Fast, polished demos/tutorials—low cost, consistent style.
• Global enterprises: Multilingual, lip-synced videos with subtitles for efficient localization.
• Storytellers & YouTubers: Immersive narratives while maintaining cadence and quality—driving growth.
• Corporate training teams: HD videos over docs—clearer key points, better communication.
• Custom Voice: Add your own audio or let the model generate one for you. Plug-and-play, easy to swap!

How to Use

1. Write your prompt.
2. Upload an audio file (optional) for voice/music.
3. Choose the video size (resolution/aspect).
4. Select the video duration (e.g., 5s / 10s).
5. Submit and wait for processing.
6. Preview and download the result.

Note

Audio limits

• Formats: wav, mp3
• Length: 3–30 seconds
• File size: ≤ 15 MB

Over-limit handling

• If the audio exceeds the target duration (5s or 10s), the model keeps only the first 5s/10s; the rest is discarded.
• If the audio is shorter than the video duration, the extra video part is silent.

Image Upload

• If you did not upload the image locally, please ensure that the image URL is accessible! A successfully accessible image will display a preview in the interface.
