Video models available in Pixara
Pixara turns text prompts and reference images into short video clips using 27 video models (checked October 14, 2026), including Seedance, Kling, Google Veo, Hailuo, Wan, Luma, PixVerse, Runway, Flux, Happy Horse, Pika, Grok Imagine and Gemini Omni. Choose a model for the shot, add an image when you need visual guidance, then refine the result with editing, motion control, audio, lip sync and upscaling tools. Every model has different limits for duration, resolution, references and sound. Pixara shows the controls for the model you select, so this page does not quote one universal limit.
Describe a scene and generate a clip from the prompt.
Every model accepts a JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB as the first frame. See the dedicated image to video guide.
Expand a rough concept into a fuller prompt before you generate.
About ten of the 27 models generate sound, including Veo 3.1, Seedance and Kling 3.0. Sound effects, voiceover and lip sync are separate tools.
Animate a character image from a 3 to 30 second reference video.
Edit a clip with a prompt, or upscale footage of up to 20 seconds to as much as 4K.
Pixara is for ecommerce brands, performance marketers, agencies and small creative teams that need to turn one brief into several video concepts.
Start from a product image or a concept in Product Ads, then build demonstrations, lifestyle scenes, close-ups and promotional ideas from one brief. Test different hooks, settings and camera moves without planning a new shoot for each variation. Templates are starting points, and a finished ad still needs your review.
Try Product AdsDevelop different hooks, presenters, product demonstrations, voiceovers and calls to action around the same offer. Combine creator-style video, product visuals and supporting footage. Pixara suits teams that need a campaign library, not a single talking-head clip.
Create videoUpload an avatar image, add a script or an audio track, and create a talking video with synchronized speech. The current AI avatar workflow runs from five seconds to five minutes, following the length of your audio. Use it for explainers, product walkthroughs and feature announcements.
Open AI avatarConnect image, video and audio steps in Workflows, a visual builder for desktop. Generate product images, animate the best one, add a voiceover, then rerun the same pipeline for the next product.
Open WorkflowsMost platforms now offer the same leading models. What differs is everything around them.
Describe the result in plain language and Ara, Pixara's creative co-pilot, helps turn it into a stronger prompt, with suggestions for camera, lighting and motion. It is an assistant, not a quality guarantee.
Chain image, video, audio and editing steps into a saved pipeline you can reuse.
Run Pixara's tools from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other supported assistants through Pixara MCP, using your own account and credits. Other platforms offer MCP too. Pixara's sits alongside product-ad, avatar and voice tools.
Plans state video capacity in seconds as well as credits: 222, 833, 2,000 and 4,400 a month. Treat these as estimates, because credit use varies by model, length, resolution and audio.
Model access is becoming easier to find. The harder problem is turning those models into a dependable production process.
There is no single best model for every shot, so start from the job. This guide is based on each model's published capabilities, not on a Pixara benchmark.
| Model | Start here for | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Seedance 2 Mini | Quick tests and short concepts | The default in Create Video, with an 8-second setting. |
| Seedance 2.0 | Several references and character continuity | Image, video and audio inputs, plus multi-shot sequences. |
| Seedance 2.5 | Longer cinematic single takes | Documented at 30 seconds in one shot. The picker offers up to 1080p. |
| Kling 3.0 | Camera movement, action and physical motion | 4 to 15 seconds, with Prompt Sequence for multi-beat shots. |
| Google Veo 3.1 | Dialogue, ambient sound and native audio | 720p or 1080p, 4 to 8 seconds. |
| Hailuo 3 | Water, smoke, fire, fabric and hair | Adaptive framing; less suited to detailed facial performance. |
| Wan 3.0 and 2.7 | Longer, coherent clips and multi-reference work | Wan 2.7 also accepts an audio upload. |
| Luma Ray 3.2 | Loops and start-frame animation | 5 or 10 seconds, up to 1080p. |
| Runway Gen 4 Turbo or PixVerse V6 | Fast image-to-video and multi-clip ideas | Check each model's ratios and durations. |
| Pika 2.2 | Social effects, transitions and fast experiments | Not the pick for strict cinematic realism. |
| Grok Imagine Video | Complex, prompt-led visual experiments | Technical limits are not yet documented. |
| Gemini Omni Flash 1.1 | Combined image, video and audio work | Native audio, up to 4K. |
Unsure? Run a short Seedance 2 Mini test, then switch models once you know what the shot is missing. The model directory covers each one in detail.
Sign up and open Create Video.
Choose a model. Seedance 2 Mini is the current default.
Add a reference image if you need visual continuity.
Describe the shot, and use Enhance My Idea if you want help.
Set the duration, add audio where the model supports it, and generate. Results appear in History & Queue.
Subject + one main action + environment + camera movement + lighting + style + what must stay the same.
Do not rely on generated video for exact on-pack text, legal copy, precise product dimensions or long continuous dialogue. If a customer needs to see the real product being opened, worn or installed, film that, and use Pixara for supporting b-roll, backgrounds and variations.
Sample prompts only. Results vary by model, reference image and settings.
A stainless-steel travel bottle on dark stone at sunrise. Slow push-in, warm rim light, condensation forming. Keep the bottle shape, logo and color consistent.
A founder in a bright studio speaks to camera: “Meet the simpler way to organize your work.” Natural gestures, soft room ambience, gentle camera movement.
Animate this mountain lodge: chimney smoke rising, snow drifting, warm light flickering in the windows. Keep the architecture and framing stable.
The sneaker lifts off a studio surface as neon streaks sweep behind it. Quick camera orbit, background shifts from white to electric blue. End on a clean close-up.
It depends on the job. Here is how Pixara compares with three alternatives, including where each one is the stronger choice.
| Platform | Entry plan | Best fit | Where it leads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pixara | Starter, $10 a month: 4,000 credits, 222 seconds of video | Brands and agencies that want models, voice, avatars and workflows in one account | Video capacity stated in seconds. Ara, Workflows and MCP on every plan. |
| OpenArt | Starter, $14 per seat a month: 4,000 credits, about 50 videos | Creators who want a mature video-editing suite | Saved characters, storyboards, conversational editing and video extension. |
| Runway | Standard, $12 a month billed annually: 625 credits, about 52 seconds of Gen-4.5 | Professionals who want a dedicated video platform | Its own models, brand kits and 4K upscaling. |
| Magnific (formerly Freepik) | Premium: 240,000 credits a year, billed annually. Price varies by region. | Teams that also need stock assets and design tools | 250M+ stock assets and a stated commercial AI license. |
Pricing checked October 12, 2026. Seconds, credits and video counts are not directly comparable, because usage depends on model, length and settings.
