About Wan
Wan is an AI creative platform from Alibaba Cloud for making images and videos from text, still pictures or reference material. It brings text-to-video, image-to-video and image editing into one place.
What it does
Wan turns a written prompt or a still image into a short video clip. It also covers text-to-image, image-to-image and editing tools that change an existing video or picture. The team publishes open model code on GitHub alongside the hosted service, so developers can look at the underlying work as well as use the app.
