Key features

Pika V2.1 turns a written prompt and a still image you upload into video inside Enhance AI. It produces 5 second clips at 1080p. Pika V2.1 is built by Pika. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.

Clip length

Pika V2.1 renders 5 second clips. Every render is the same length, so plan one beat per clip and chain clips in the studio when a story needs more time. A fixed length also means a predictable price per render, which makes budgeting a batch of shots simple.

Resolution

Pika V2.1 renders at 1080p. There is no resolution picker for this model, so every render comes back at the same size. For a bigger frame, run the finished clip through a video upscaler on the same account.

Input modes

Start from a written prompt or from a still image. Text to video gives Pika V2.1 the most freedom; image to video locks the first frame, so a product, a face or a location stays as you shot it while the motion is generated around it.
