Wan 3.0 Alternatives You Can Actually Use
Wan 3.0 is behind an application. These four models are not — and you can start with them on this page.
If you came looking for 30-second clips with generated sound and multi-reference control, you do not have to wait for an invitation — Seedance 2.5 reaches that same 30 seconds here, in one pass. Below: what Wan 3.0's own documentation promises, and what Seedance 2.5, Kling V3, VEO 3.1 and Seedance 2.0 deliver right now, with their real parameter limits.
Wan 3.0 is not available in our generator
You cannot generate with Wan 3.0 here — access to it is granted by Alibaba through QwenCloud, on application. Everything on this page that we describe as available means available on ImagineToVideo today. For the model's release status and specs, see our Wan 3.0 fact-check.

Wan 3.0 and Seedance 2.5, side by side
We ran both in internal integration testing — and Seedance 2.5 has since gone live in our generator (August 7, 2026), while Wan 3.0 remains application-gated. The clips below let you judge the gap for yourself.
Rendered by ImagineToVideo during internal integration testing, on pre-release access to both models. Seedance 2.5 is now live in our generator; Wan 3.0 is not, so only the right half is reproducible here today.

Each clip is a single split-screen file: Wan 3.0 on the left, Seedance 2.5 on the right. Both halves are our own renders from internal integration testing, not vendor showreels. Seedance 2.5 is now live in our generator, so its half is reproducible here today; Wan 3.0 is not. Selected footage is not a controlled benchmark. The models you can actually run here are compared in the table below.
Wan 3.0 is still gated. These four are not.
Seedance 2.5, Kling V3, VEO 3.1 and Seedance 2.0 all run here — no application, no waitlist.

Up to 30 seconds per clip
Seedance 2.5 runs to 30 seconds in a single request, matching the ceiling Wan 3.0's own documentation quotes — and you can queue one right now instead of applying for access. Kling V3 and Seedance 2.0 stop at 15 seconds, VEO 3.1 at 8.
Sound generated with the picture
All four models produce synchronised audio alongside the video, and Seedance 2.5, VEO 3.1 and Seedance 2.0 let you control it. On Seedance 2.5, lines you wrap in double quotes in the prompt come back as lip-synced dialogue. No separate scoring pass, no manual alignment.
Reference-driven control
Seedance 2.5 accepts up to nine reference images or a first-and-last frame pair, plus up to nine reference videos of 1.8–30 seconds each, 30 seconds combined. Seedance 2.0 takes the same nine images but only three reference videos. VEO 3.1 has dedicated first-last-frame and reference-to-video paths.
Up to 4K on VEO 3.1
VEO 3.1 offers 720p, 1080p and 4K. Kling V3 goes to 1080p, Seedance 2.0 covers 480p through 1080p. Seedance 2.5 trades resolution for length: 480p and 720p only, across six aspect ratios.

Picking between the four
You need length and reference control
Seedance 2.5 is now the closest match to what Wan 3.0 advertises: up to 30 seconds in one pass — the very ceiling Wan 3.0 documents — native synchronised audio with lip-synced dialogue, and the widest reference surface here: nine reference images or a first-and-last frame pair, plus up to nine reference videos totalling 30 seconds, across six aspect ratios. It stops at 720p, so if you need 1080p take Seedance 2.0 instead and settle for 15 seconds.
You need the highest fidelity per shot
VEO 3.1 tops out at 4K and gives you controllable audio, with dedicated first-last-frame and reference-to-video paths. Clips are fixed at 4, 6 or 8 seconds, so it suits single strong shots rather than long takes. Kling V3 sits between the two: up to 15 seconds at 1080p, with multi-prompt shot sequencing.
From prompt to clip
Four steps. Nothing to apply for.
Describe the shot
Write what should happen in the frame. Camera movement, lighting and pacing all belong in the prompt — the more specific it is, the less you will re-roll.
Pick the model
Seedance 2.5 for length and reference control, Seedance 2.0 when you need 1080p, VEO 3.1 for maximum fidelity, Kling V3 for longer cinematic sequences. You can switch and re-run the same prompt.
Set length and resolution
Choose the duration, resolution and aspect ratio within that model's limits. The options shown are the ones the model actually accepts, so nothing fails after you have waited for it.
Generate and download
Your clip renders with its audio track. Download it, or adjust the prompt and run it again against a different model to compare.
Common questions
What is the closest alternative to Wan 3.0?
Seedance 2.5. It runs to 30 seconds in a single pass — the very ceiling Wan 3.0's documentation quotes — generates natively synchronised audio, including lip-synced dialogue from lines you put in double quotes, and accepts the widest set of reference inputs available here: up to nine reference images or a first-and-last frame pair, plus up to nine reference videos totalling 30 seconds. It renders at 480p and 720p only, so if you need 1080p the pick is Seedance 2.0, at up to 15 seconds. Wan 3.0 itself stays application-gated and is not available on this site.
Can I use Wan 3.0 on ImagineToVideo?
No. Wan 3.0 is not in our generator — we have only run it in internal integration testing on pre-release access. Public access is granted by Alibaba through QwenCloud on application. Our Wan 3.0 page tracks its status weekly.
Why is Wan 3.0 in the video comparison but not in the table?
The table lists models you can generate with on this site today, and Wan 3.0 is not one of them: we only ran it in internal integration testing on pre-release access, and public access is still granted by Alibaba through QwenCloud, invite-only. Seedance 2.5, the other half of those clips, went live here on August 7, 2026, so it is in the table.
Do these models generate sound?
Yes. All four produce audio together with the video rather than requiring a separate pass. Seedance 2.5, VEO 3.1 and Seedance 2.0 additionally let you control the audio, and on Seedance 2.5 any dialogue you wrap in double quotes comes back lip-synced.
Which one can do 4K?
VEO 3.1 offers 720p, 1080p and 4K — it is the only model here that reaches 4K. 1080p comes from Kling V3, Seedance 2.0 and VEO 3.1. Seedance 2.5 renders at 480p and 720p only, which is what it trades for its 30-second clips. Wan 3.0's documented resolution list stops at 1080P as well — 4K is not among its accepted values.
Will you add Wan 3.0 when it opens up?
We have run it in internal integration testing on pre-release access, but there is nothing to announce. Putting any model in the generator depends on a generally available API with published pricing and terms, and Wan 3.0 currently has neither. We re-check its status weekly and log every change on our Wan 3.0 page.
