Key features

WAN 2.6 turns a written prompt and a still image you upload into video inside Enhance AI. It produces clips from 5 to 15 seconds at 1080p. WAN 2.6 is built by Alibaba. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.

Clip length

WAN 2.6 renders clips from 5 to 15 seconds, and you pick the length before you render. Longer clips cost more because video is billed by length, so rough out an idea short and only render the full length once the shot works.

Resolution

WAN 2.6 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 WAN 2.6 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.
