The AI models behind EpicVids

The default video model: 12-second scenes with native audio.

• 12-second scenes in a single pass, longer than most default tiers
• Native audio with voices, effects, and ambience
• First and last frame control for clean scene-to-scene transitions
• The default video model on EpicVids

Seedance 1.5 Pro is the model every new EpicVids project starts on. Twelve-second scenes mean fewer cuts to manage, the native audio track carries dialogue and ambience, and frame control keeps multi-scene videos coherent. A dependable starting point before you reach for a specialist.

The longest single clips on EpicVids, with native audio built in.

• Single generations up to 16 seconds, the longest clip length we offer
• Native audio baked into every clip
• Multi-shot sequencing for scenes that need more than one camera setup
• Budget-friendly 540p tier, with 720p and 1080p when you want more detail

Vidu Q3 stretches a single generation to 16 seconds, which means fewer stitches and steadier continuity in longer scenes. With native audio and multi-shot sequencing at one of the lowest price points in the lineup, it is the workhorse for filling out a long video without burning the budget.

Quick, reliable, and easy on your wallet.

• Generates in well under a minute, so you can keep iterating
• First and last frame control for clean scene-to-scene transitions
• Available in 720p and 1080p, both 16:9 and 9:16
• Optional fixed-camera mode for static shots and product video

Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast is the iteration workhorse: the lowest per-scene price on EpicVids, fast turnarounds, and strong temporal consistency. Rough out your whole film on it, retry scenes freely, and let EpicVids add a soundtrack at the end (short tracks loop automatically to cover the full video). When a scene is exactly right, regenerate just that one on a premium model if you want audio baked in.

Affordable clips with natural spoken dialogue, from text or an image.

• Text-to-video and image-to-video in one model
• Native audio including clear spoken dialogue
• One of the most affordable audio-capable models on EpicVids
• Scenes from 1 to 15 seconds at 480p or 720p

Grok Imagine Video is xAI's accessible video model: full scenes with synchronized sound and spoken lines at a price that invites iteration. Use it to rough out dialogue scenes cheaply, then re-generate the keepers on a premium model, or ship it as-is for short-form content.

Up to nine reference images, native audio, and scenes from 3 to 15 seconds.

• Accepts up to 9 reference images for multi-character consistency
• Native audio with dialogue, ambience, and effects in one pass
• 720p and 1080p, horizontal and vertical
• Scenes from 3 to 15 seconds
• Successor to Happy Horse 1.0, the model that topped the Artificial Analysis Video Arena in April 2026

Happy Horse 1.1 is Alibaba's successor to the arena-topping Happy Horse 1.0, positioned by its makers as an upgrade in motion continuity, character consistency, facial detail, and audio-visual sync. On EpicVids it replaces 1.0 at the same price while adding 1080p, vertical formats, flexible scene lengths, and room for nine reference images. In our own tests a single cast photo carried a speaking character through the scene convincingly.

Full 1080p with native audio, saved characters, and real multi-shot editing.

• Native synchronized audio: dialogue, ambience, and effects in one pass
• Cast character references keep the same face across scenes and projects
• Directs up to 6 distinct shots inside one clip, each with an exact length
• 1080p in 16:9 and 9:16, scenes from 5 to 15 seconds

Kling 3.0 Pro is the model to pick when your video is a story rather than a clip. It accepts your saved cast characters as references, cuts between shots inside a single generation with shot lengths you control, and scores the whole thing with native audio. For multi-scene films with recurring characters, this is the strongest tool on EpicVids.

Multi-shot storytelling with native audio at a budget price.

• Multi-Shot Mode cuts between several shots inside one generated clip
• Native synchronized audio on every generation
• Responds well to lens and camera language in prompts
• 540p to 1080p, scenes from 5 to 15 seconds

PixVerse V6 made its name on multi-shot generation: give it a scene and it directs wide shots, mediums, and close-ups with real cuts inside a single clip. It is the affordable way to get trailer-style pacing without stitching anything yourself.

ByteDance's flagship video model, tuned for shorter wait times.

• One of the top-ranked models on the Artificial Analysis Video Arena
• Up to 15-second scenes generated in a single pass
• First-frame control plus reference images for tight consistency
• Strong at cinematic camera moves and natural body motion

Seedance 2.0 was the model holding the top of the public arena before Happy Horse arrived, and it still produces some of the most polished cinematic footage on the market. The Fast variant on EpicVids keeps the same backbone but ships your render quicker, which is what you want when you are still iterating on a scene.

xAI's higher tier for cinematic image-to-video with strikingly natural voices.

• Starts from your image, so your subject stays your subject
• Spoken lines come out strikingly natural
• 480p to 1080p, scenes from 1 to 15 seconds
• Fast generations, often under a minute

Grok Imagine 1.5 is xAI's premium image-to-video model. Give it a starting image (EpicVids generates or accepts one as your first frame) and a prompt, and it animates the scene with sound and speech that sounds remarkably human. It is the model to reach for when a character needs to talk and feel alive on screen.
