v2.2 I2v API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/pika/v2.2-i2v with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to completed, then read the output URL from data.outputs[0]. Examples for v2.2 I2v below.

HTTP example

# Submit the prediction
curl -X POST "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/pika/v2.2-i2v" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
    "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
    "size": "1280*720",
    "duration": 5
}'

# Response includes a prediction id. Poll for the result:
curl -X GET "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{request_id}/result" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY"

# When status is "completed", read the output from data.outputs[0].

Node.js example

// npm install wavespeed
const WaveSpeed = require('wavespeed');

const client = new WaveSpeed(); // reads WAVESPEED_API_KEY from env

const result = await client.run("pika/v2.2-i2v", {
        "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
        "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
        "size": "1280*720",
        "duration": 5
});

console.log(result.outputs[0]); // → URL of the generated output

Python example

# pip install wavespeed
import wavespeed

output = wavespeed.run(
    "pika/v2.2-i2v",
    {
    "prompt": "A cinematic shot of a city at sunset, soft golden light",
    "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
    "size": "1280*720",
    "duration": 5
}
)

print(output["outputs"][0])  # → URL of the generated output

v2.2 I2v API — Frequently asked questions

What is the v2.2 I2v API?

v2.2 I2v is a Pika model for video generation from images, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. Pika V2.2 Image-to-Video converts images into high-quality videos in various sizes with prompt optimization for precise results. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the v2.2 I2v API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/pika/pika-v2.2-i2v.

How much does v2.2 I2v cost per run?

v2.2 I2v starts at $0.20 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does v2.2 I2v accept?

Key inputs: `prompt`, `image`, `duration`, `size`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/pika/pika-v2.2-i2v.

How long does v2.2 I2v take to generate?

Average end-to-end generation time on WaveSpeedAI is around 78 seconds per request — measured across recent runs. Queue time scales with global demand; live status is visible in the prediction record.

Can I use v2.2 I2v outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (Pika). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
