Wan 2.6 Models

Alibaba’s Wan 2.6 Models are a compact, production-ready set of video generation endpoints covering the three core workflows: text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-to-video. Built for fast iteration and reliable results, Wan 2.6 emphasizes stronger visual consistency, smoother motion, and more controllable cinematic style across generations.
