WAN Family Guide AI Generator
Generated on PixelDojo with WAN family. Produced by PixelDojo's generation pipeline.
WAN is the largest single model family on Pixel Dojo: five video generations from 2.1 to 3.0, plus separate tools for stills, image editing, video editing, character swap and reference driven shots. WAN 3.0 is the newest and prices from 1.5 credits per second at 480p, while the oldest video model still on the shelf, WAN 2.1, runs 1.5 credits per second flat. Which one you want comes down to three things: how long the clip is, whether you need audio, and whether you are starting from nothing or from footage you already have. Every rate below is read off the tool code, not estimated.
The WAN family, tool by tool
WAN 3.0
The current flagship. Clips from 2 to 30 seconds at 480p, 720p or 1080p, with an optional native audio track. Standard rates are 1.5, 2.5 and 4.5 credits per second. The Fast tier costs 2, 3.5 and 7 and returns in roughly 2 minutes instead of 15 to 20 for identical output, which is why the tool page picks Fast by default.
WAN 2.7 Video
Three modes in one tool: text to video, image to video, and continuation of a clip you already have. 2 to 15 seconds at 720p for 2.5 credits per second or 1080p for 4.5. It also accepts a last frame image, so you can pin both ends of a shot.
WAN 2.7 Video Edit
Re-renders an existing clip from a text prompt, with optional reference images. 2.5 credits per second at 720p and 3 at 1080p. It can keep the source audio untouched instead of generating a new track, which matters when the dialogue is already right.
WAN 2.7 for stills
The text to image tool has two tiers: Standard at 1 credit per image and Pro at 2, where Pro adds 4K output. The matching editor takes up to 9 input images for fusion edits and prices the same way, 1 credit on Standard and 2 on Pro.
WAN 2.6 Video
Two variants. Standard runs 2.5 credits per second at 720p and 3 at 1080p. Flash is the budget option at 1 credit per second at 720p and 1.5 at 1080p, and it is image to video only. That rate ties with the Flash tier on WAN Reference to Video for the cheapest second of WAN video.
WAN 2.6 for stills
1 credit per image for text to image, with prompt enhancement and multi image output in one call. The 2.6 editor is also 1 credit and takes up to 4 reference images.
WAN 2.2 Video
Priced per clip rather than per second, which makes it predictable. Standard is 3 credits at 480p and 4 at 720p. Plus is 3 credits at 480p and 10 at 1080p. The old Extended mode has been retired, so the tool now offers Standard and Plus only. It also takes two LoRA slots with independent scales.
WAN 2.2 Animate and WAN 2.2 Replace
Both charge 2 credits per second at 480p or 720p. Animate drives a still character image with the motion of a reference clip. Replace swaps a character inside a source video while keeping the scene and the motion intact.
WAN 2.1 Video
1.5 credits per second, no tiers, no resolution surcharge. It is the oldest video model in the family still available and the simplest to price. It takes a LoRA file and a strength value between 0 and 2, which the 2.6 and later video models do not.
WAN Image
1 credit per image, up to 2 megapixels, generated in 3 to 6 seconds, with optional LoRA support. This is the one to reach for when you need a lot of quick cinematic stills rather than one perfect one.
WAN Reference to Video
Takes up to 5 references in one call, of which up to 3 can be video clips, and supports multi shot output. 5 or 10 second clips. Standard is 2 credits per second at 720p and 3 at 1080p, and the Flash variant halves that to 1 and 1.5.
WAN Video Character Swap
Combines a character image with a reference video to produce a new clip. Standard costs 4 credits per second and Pro costs 5. It is the most expensive per second of the WAN editing tools, because it regenerates every frame around the new character.
Train a WAN LoRA
WAN 2.2 Image has its own LoRA trainer at 90 credits per 1000 training steps, defaulting to a 1000 step run. It has separate person and style modes, and the trainer estimates about one minute of wait per 100 steps.
A second of WAN video costs anywhere from 1 credit to 7 depending on the version and resolution. A WAN still costs 1 or 2.
Why Choose Pixel Dojo for WAN Family Guide
Professional-quality results with cutting-edge AI technology
1 credit per second at the low end
WAN 2.6 Flash at 720p is the cheapest video second in the family. A 5 second clip is 5 credits.
Up to 30 seconds in one call
WAN 3.0 accepts durations from 2 to 30 seconds, the longest single generation in the family by a wide margin.
One API key across all of them
Every WAN tool is a POST to /api/v1/models/{model}/run with the same key and the same request shape, so moving between versions is a string change.
How It Works
How to choose a WAN version in three questions:
How long is the clip?
Up to 15 seconds keeps WAN 2.7 and WAN 3.0 both in play. Past 15 seconds only WAN 3.0 answers, up to 30. Under 10 seconds opens the older and cheaper models too.
What are you starting from?
Nothing at all points to WAN 3.0 or WAN 2.7 text to video. A still points to WAN 2.6 Flash for the cheapest second. Existing footage points to WAN 2.7 Video Edit, WAN 2.2 Replace or WAN Video Character Swap depending on what you want changed.
Then multiply the rate by the seconds
Almost every WAN video tool bills per second of output, so the price is the rate times the length. WAN 2.2 is the exception and charges a flat price per clip, which is 3 or 4 credits on Standard.

Everything you need to know about WAN Family Guide
Which WAN model is best right now?

WAN 2.6 Flash at 1 credit per second for 720p, or 1.5 at 1080p, tied with the Flash tier on WAN Reference to Video. Both need an input image. If you need text to video, WAN 3.0 at 480p is 1.5 credits per second and WAN 2.1 is also 1.5.
What does WAN 3.0 cost?
1.5 credits per second at 480p, 2.5 at 720p and 4.5 at 1080p on the standard tier. The Fast tier is 2, 3.5 and 7. A 5 second 720p standard clip is 12.5 credits, and the same clip on Fast is 17.5.
Which WAN model can continue a clip I already have?
WAN 2.7 Video has a continuation mode. The source clip has to be 2 to 10 seconds and the output has to be longer than the source, up to 15 seconds, billed at the full output length.
Does WAN generate audio?
WAN 3.0 has a native audio track option. WAN 2.7 Video accepts audio inputs, and WAN 2.7 Video Edit can preserve the source clip's audio rather than replacing it.
Can I train a WAN LoRA?
Yes, on WAN 2.2 Image. It costs 90 credits per 1000 training steps and defaults to a 1000 step run, with separate person and style modes. Trained files then load on the WAN generation pages that accept a LoRA.
