    Verified August 2026 at https://modelstudio.alibabacloud.com/intl/blog/wan3-ai-video-generation-model/ and https://modelstudio.console.alibabacloud.com/model-releases/wan3.0-video. Wan3.0 API list prices: $0.05/sec (480P), $0.10/sec (720P), $0.20/sec (1080P). Console also showed time-limited ~30% offer pricing ($0.035 / $0.07 / $0.14 per sec until Sep 24, 2026 UTC+8) — final bill subject to console. wan.video is the brand/product front end; public self-serve consumer subscription ladder was not clearly published on the fetched brand page (heavy client JS). Also available inside Alibaba Cloud AI Token Plans. Confirm regional console rates before production budgets.

    Pros & cons

    Editorial notes to help compare fit before opening the vendor site.

    Pros

    • 30-second generations beat many short-clip-only models
    • Document-to-video is a practical differentiator
    • Transparent per-second API list prices
    • Strong multimodal reference and edit/extend story

    Cons

    • Requires Alibaba Cloud / regional account friction for many Western users
    • Consumer wan.video pricing less transparent than API docs
    • Audio texture and on-screen text called out as still improving
    • Promo vs list price can confuse cost estimates

    Review notes

    Context from the listing review and editorial research.

    NEW tool. DISAMBIGUATION: Wan / Wanx / Tongyi Wanxiang video family from Alibaba — not an unrelated "WAN" networking acronym. Closest directory peers are Kling, Veo, PixVerse. Prefer Name "Wan Video" for slug clarity.
