4K Native Video — No Upscaling, No Artifacts
Generates at true 4K from the first frame — not an upscaled 1080P clip. Tools that upscale to 4K introduce softness and edge artifacts; Wan 3.0 renders at native resolution throughout.

What Is Wan 3.0
Alibaba's Next-Generation AI Video Model
Wan 3.0 is Alibaba's next-generation AI video generation model, released in 2026. It takes text, image, audio, and video as input and outputs video with synchronized audio, multi-shot scene structure, and frame-accurate camera control — all in a single generation pass.
It supports up to 30-second clips, 6-shot AI Director mode, and Identity Lock — which saves character profiles across separate sessions for consistent output across projects.
Available online at wan.video ↗ — no local install required. Access it directly through the platform or via API.
Wan 3.0 Features
Built for Production
Video Generation
30-Second AI Video — Full Clip, One Generation
Generate up to 30 seconds in a single run with character and scene continuity from start to finish. Removes the need to stitch shorter clips together in post.
Video Continuation — Extend Any Clip with a New Prompt
Add a follow-on prompt to continue a generated clip, maintaining characters, environment, and lighting from where it left off. Supports multi-minute productions through chained generations.
Direction & Control
AI Director Mode — 6-Shot Multi-Scene Sequences
Specify up to 6 independent shots per generation — each with its own shot type, camera movement, duration, and scene content. Wan 3.0 handles framing, transitions, and consistency across cuts automatically.
Multimodal Input — Combine Text, Image, Audio, and Video
Attach up to 12 reference assets per generation: 9 images, 3 video clips, 3 audio files — tagged in your prompt with @reference syntax. Each reference anchors a specific element — character, camera style, or audio tone.
Audio
Native Audio — Dialog, Effects, and Music in One Pass
Every generation includes multi-track stereo audio — dialogue, ambient sound, effects, and background music — produced alongside the video in the same pass. No separate audio session or manual sync required.
AI Lip Sync — Accurate to Individual Sounds, Across 12 Languages
Matches mouth movements to speech at the phoneme level across 12 languages and dialectal variations. Works in close-up shots without visible sync errors — usable for multilingual campaigns without re-generation per language.
Consistency & Editing
AI Character Consistency — Same Look Across Every Generation (Identity Lock)
Save a character's visual profile after the first generation. Calling that profile in a later session produces the same character in a new scene — no re-description needed. Designed for series content, brand avatars, and multi-scene productions.
AI Video Editing — Edit Any Region Without Regenerating the Full Clip
Select a region in the clip — background, outfit, object — and modify it without regenerating the full video. Changes are isolated to the selected area; surrounding frames stay as generated.
Wan 3.0 vs Wan 2.7
What's New in Wan 3.0
The table below compares Wan 3.0 and Wan 2.7 across all major production features.
| Feature | Wan 2.7 | Wan 3.0 |
|---|---|---|
| Max Resolution | 1080P | 4K Native |
| Max Duration | 15 seconds | 30 seconds |
| Multi-Shot Control | Limited | Up to 6 shots, per-shot parameters |
| Reference Inputs | Limited multi-image | Up to 12 (9 img + 3 vid + 3 audio) |
| Video Continuation | Yes — prompt-guided extension | |
| Character Memory | Per-session only | Cross-session Identity Lock |
| Regional Editing | Basic | Mask-based precision editing |
| Lip Sync Precision | Basic | Phoneme-level, 12 languages |
| Native Audio | Multi-track stereo |
Wan 2.7 introduced the 4-model API suite (T2V, I2V, R2V, VideoEdit) and native audio generation. Wan 3.0 raises the output ceiling — 4K resolution, 30-second clips — and adds the control layer that production workflows actually need: 12-asset multimodal input, cross-session Identity Lock, mask-based regional editing, and phoneme-level lip sync across 12 languages.

Where Wan 3.0 Leads
Wan 3.0 has the longest single-pass generation at 30 seconds — 2× Kling 3.0 and Seedance 2.0, and 50% longer than Sora 2. Cross-session Identity Lock and brand color precision are features no other model in this comparison currently offers. Multilingual text rendering across 12 languages covers a use case that consistently fails in competing models.
Where Competitors Lead
Kling 3.0 has the strongest Motion Control tooling — frame-accurate camera path control that Wan 3.0 approaches but does not yet match. Seedance 2.0 leads on ELO benchmark scores as of April 2026. Sora 2 maintains a visual fidelity advantage in short-form, high-detail content. Runway Gen-4 offers better integration with professional editing suites (Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve) for teams already inside those workflows.
Bottom line: Wan 3.0 is the strongest choice for production teams that need narrative length, multilingual output, and brand-accurate color control across a full campaign — not just isolated high-quality clips.
How to Use Wan 3.0
Generate Your First Video in 3 Steps
Wan 3.0 is available online at wan.video — no local install required.
01
Write Your Prompt and Add References
Describe your scene, camera movement, character actions, and audio tone in a text prompt. Add reference assets — images for character appearance, video clips for camera style or motion, audio files for voice or music — tagged directly using @reference syntax. You can combine up to 12 assets.
02
Set Resolution, Duration, and Shot Structure
Select your model mode: T2V (text to video), I2V (image to video), R2V (reference to video), or VideoEdit. Set resolution (1080P or 4K), duration (up to 30 seconds), and aspect ratio (16:9, 9:16, 1:1, or 4:3). If your prompt describes multiple scenes, enable AI Director mode and define individual shot parameters per cut.
03
Generate, Refine, and Export
Submit your generation. Wan 3.0 produces a complete audio-visual clip — video and audio delivered in the same file. Use the mask-based editor to refine specific regions without regenerating the full clip. Export as a watermark-free MP4 with commercial license included.
Pro tip: For character-driven or series content, save your character's Identity Lock profile after the first generation. Every subsequent scene recalls the same appearance automatically — no re-description needed.
