Vidu

Vidu's Reference to Video mode accepts up to seven uploaded images and locks character appearance, costume details, props, and background assets across every generated clip. This Multi-Entity Consistency technology means you build your cast once and the model maintains that identity through an entire video series. For creators producing episodic content, branded storytelling, or recurring-character social videos, this directly eliminates the frame-drift and character inconsistency that plagues competing tools.

Image to Video animates any still image into a fluid video clip using Vidu's generative motion engine. You can upload a starting image, optionally add an ending image, and layer a text prompt to direct the motion and scene direction. The output supports anime, cinematic, and realistic styles at up to 1080p and 24 FPS, making it an ideal tool for turning Midjourney outputs, product photography, or concept art into shareable short-form video content.

Vidu's Text to Video mode converts written prompts into polished video clips in a single generation pass. The prompt window supports up to 1,500 characters, allowing detailed scene descriptions covering subject, environment, camera angle, lighting, and style. Vidu Q3 extends this further by generating multi-shot sequences with narrative cuts and transitions within one render, giving you a directed scene rather than a single static viewpoint.

Vidu's AI Sound Effect Generator creates high-fidelity audio from text descriptions with precise control over timing, duration, and layering. You describe the sound you need and the tool renders it at 48 kHz output quality. All generated sound effects are royalty-free and cleared for commercial use, including paid advertising and monetised content, with no external audio library or DAW required.

Vidu includes a native AI Image Generator for producing still visuals before committing them to video workflows. Rather than sourcing reference images from external tools like Midjourney or Stable Diffusion, creators can generate, refine, and immediately feed those assets into Reference to Video or Image to Video without ever leaving the platform. It supports the same anime, cinematic, and realistic style presets available across all Vidu tools.

Vidu Q3 is the platform's most advanced generation model and its biggest technical differentiator in 2026. It generates up to 16 seconds of synchronised audio and video in a single pass, covering dialogue, sound effects, background music, and cinematic visuals together. It supports six types of cinematic visual effects including particle systems, fluid simulation, and dynamic camera movement, alongside multilingual output natively in English, Japanese, and Mandarin.

Vidu Claw is Vidu's AI marketing agent, built on the OpenClaw framework. It takes a campaign brief, product description, or content goal and generates a full production workflow covering storyboards, scripts, scene sequences, and finished videos. It supports social video automation for TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts and connects directly to Telegram, allowing creators to trigger and manage full production workflows from a chat interface without logging into the platform.
