wan_3 on the Video Endpoint

The Base44 AI Gateway video endpoint now supports wan_3, Alibaba's video generation model. It generates clips from 2 to 30 seconds long at 480p, 720p or 1080p. Defaults are 5 seconds, 720p, and audio on.

Frames and References

The model accepts a first frame and a last frame, which lets an app control how a clip begins and ends. It also takes image and video references, up to 50 images and 5 videos per request.

Reference Limits for Other Models

The same entry documents reference limits for the minimax_h3 and Grok Imagine Video models, and the linked page carries an updated table of models, aspect ratios, media support and defaults.

Private Files as Media URLs

Private files that an app owns can now be used as media URLs in video requests, so apps no longer need to make source media public to feed it to the model.

Why It Matters

Longer clips and first/last frame control make the gateway more practical for apps that generate marketing videos or animated content. The private-file change removes a privacy trade-off.
