PhotoToVideo.io turns photos into videos and generates AI videos from text descriptions. Upload a photo to animate it, or write a scene description for text-to-video generation.
What AI model is used? +
We use Alibaba Wan 2.6, one of the most capable open-source video generation models. It produces 720p HD video with realistic motion and excellent temporal consistency.
What is photo-to-video (image-to-video)? +
You upload a still photo and describe how it should move. The AI animates it — adding fluid motion, depth, and life to your image. Great for portraits, landscapes, product photos, and more.
What is text-to-video? +
You write a text description of any scene and the AI generates a video from scratch. No photo needed. Works with any creative concept, setting, or mood.
How long does generation take? +
Usually 30–90 seconds depending on the duration chosen. A 3-second clip generates in ~30s. An 8-second clip may take 60–90s.
What video formats and resolutions are available? +
All videos are 720p HD MP4. Aspect ratios: 16:9 (widescreen), 9:16 (vertical/portrait), 1:1 (square). Duration: 3, 5, or 8 seconds.
How many free videos can I generate? +
2 free video generations per day, tracked by IP address. Resets at midnight UTC. No account or credit card required.
What photo formats can I upload? +
JPG, PNG, and WEBP. Maximum file size 4MB. For best results, use photos with clear subjects and good lighting.
Is there a watermark? +
No watermark on free-tier videos.
Do you still offer image generation? +
No. PhotoToVideo.io is focused entirely on video generation (photo-to-video and text-to-video). For AI image generation, visit aiphoto.io.
