Waver 1.0 AI video generator

ByteDance Waver 1.0 image to video model.

Video is paid per clip from your wallet, no subscription. The studio shows the price before you pay, and top ups start at $5.

Key features

Waver 1.0 turns a still image you upload into video inside Enhance AI. It produces 5 second clips at 1080p. Waver 1.0 is built by ByteDance. On Enhance AI it runs on the same account as every other model, with no separate subscription.

Clip length

Waver 1.0 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

Waver 1.0 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

Waver 1.0 starts from a still image you upload. The first frame is locked to your image, so a product, a face or a location stays as you shot it, and the prompt only describes how the scene should move. Upload the sharpest source you have.

What people make with Waver 1.0

Backgrounds and loops

Atmospheric loops for a website header, a stage screen or a stream overlay suit Waver 1.0 well: slow drifting clouds, rain on glass, light moving across a wall. Keep the camera still and the motion gentle so the loop point hides, and render at the ratio the screen needs.

Short social clips

Vertical clips for Reels, TikTok and Shorts are the most common job for Waver 1.0. Write one clear scene per clip, keep the action simple so the motion reads on a phone, and render a few variations before you post. A short clip that lands is worth more than a long one that wanders.

Product shots

Give Waver 1.0 a product, the surface it sits on and one camera move, and it returns a short hero shot for a store page or an ad. Keep the prompt to what the camera sees. Start from a product photo so the packaging stays exact.
