Current rates are in USD. Official list prices are shown for comparison.
Billable seconds = reference video input seconds + generated output seconds. Text and image inputs add no video seconds. Disabling generated audio does not lower the per-second rate.
The 5-second example uses no reference video. A 5-second video reference plus a 5-second output is billed as 10 seconds.

Overview
What is Wan 3.0 Prime?
Wan 3.0 Prime is a distinct video model in the Wan family. It supports text-led scenes, first-frame animation and generation guided by reference media. Choose it as a separate creative option and evaluate the output against the same brief you would use for standard Wan 3.0. The useful comparison is the finished shot: its motion, subject consistency and fit with your edit.
A Wan 3.0 Prime request can start with a detailed product image or a simple written scene. Reference video can describe movement, while reference audio can help communicate the intended sound. Keep the direction specific enough to judge the result. For a product reveal, for example, ask for a single camera move and check that the object’s shape stays consistent throughout the clip.

Wan 3.0 Prime · What you can create
Animate a defined composition
Give Wan 3.0 Prime a first frame when the subject and framing are already decided. An optional last frame provides a destination for the shot; your prompt describes the movement between those visual anchors.
Bring visual and audio direction
Reference media let you describe more than a written prompt alone. Assign each input a clear purpose when working with Wan 3.0 Prime, such as product appearance, camera movement or the sound that accompanies a scene.
Wan 3.0 Prime · Put it to work
Product reveal variations
Generate alternative camera moves around the same product. Review Wan 3.0 Prime results for readable contours and stable reflections, then choose the version that fits your presentation rather than relying on the model name.
Character-led short scenes
Use a reference image to establish a character’s appearance and describe one simple action. Wan 3.0 Prime can help you explore an entrance, a reaction or a transition before combining separate shots in an editor.
Matched model comparisons
Send the same brief and source material to Wan 3.0 Prime and standard Wan 3.0 at matching settings. Compare usable output and total cost, keeping duration and resolution fixed so the comparison remains meaningful.

Wan 3.0 Prime offers 480p, 720p and 1080p. It is separate from Wan 3.0 Prime Pro, whose documented outputs include 2K and 4K. Prime and Pro are not interchangeable names, and choosing Prime alone does not select a higher-resolution output.

Wan 3.0 Prime · Before you generate
- Wan 3.0 Prime supports 2–30 seconds of output. When you supply reference video, its duration and the generated output must total no more than 30 seconds.
- Reference video and reference audio are each limited to 15 seconds in total. The documented maximum is 10 reference images, 5 video clips and 5 audio clips.
- First/last-frame inputs and multimodal reference inputs are separate modes. Choose one mode for a request. A document file and a web link also cannot be submitted together.
- Review generated lettering, speech and visual details before publishing. Reference material guides a generation; it does not guarantee exact reproduction of every feature.
