Try Wan 3.0

The same generator, priced two ways

One form, two models

Both tiers live on the Wan 3.0 generator with the same prompt box, first and optional last frame, and reference photos. You pick the tier before you generate; nothing else about the form changes.

Prime is the faster model

That speed is what you pay for. Prime is priced about 1.5–1.6 times Standard per second. Standard is never more expensive, and at 480P the 2 and 5 second clips cost the same on both tiers.

Same limits either way

2 to 30 seconds, 480P to 1080P, native audio on or off. Neither tier unlocks a longer clip or a higher resolution; the choice is speed versus credits.

Model speedStandard is the default tier on the generator. Same prompt, same inputs, no extra settings.Prime is the faster model. You select it on the same form before you generate. This site does not publish a wall-clock benchmark, so the honest claim is the tier's own label: high-speed Wan 3.0.
Credits per clip1 credit per 4 seconds at 480P, per 2 seconds at 720P, and per 1 second at 1080P, rounded up, minimum 1. Examples: 5s 720P is 3 credits, 10s 720P is 5, 30s 1080P is 30.About 1.5–1.6 times Standard per second, applied to the unrounded Standard cost, then rounded up. Standard is never more expensive; at 480P, the 2 and 5 second clips cost the same on both tiers. Examples: 5s 720P is 4 credits, 10s 720P is 8, 30s 1080P is 48.
Length and resolution2 to 30 seconds, any whole second, at 480P, 720P, or 1080P. Six aspect ratios including 16:9 and 9:16. Native audio on or off.Identical. Prime does not unlock a longer clip or a higher resolution. A 30 second 1080P clip exists on both tiers; only the credit total moves.
Inputs and modesText, a first frame plus an optional last frame, 1 to 10 reference photos, a URL, or a PDF, across text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, URL-to-video, and PDF-to-video.Identical. Prime takes the same input fields as Standard on the same form.
QualityBoth tiers output the same 480P/720P/1080P ladder with native audio. This site publishes no quality benchmark between the two tiers, so no quality claim is made here.The difference this site prices is speed, not resolution. If two passes at the same settings look similar to you, keep the cheaper tier; if the faster model saves you a rewrite loop, that is what Prime is for.
Best used forDrafts, batch tries, and everyday posts, where the cheapest credits per attempt matter more than turnaround.Final takes on deadline deliverables, when you want each pass back faster.

Both tiers run on wan-ai.app, and every credit figure in both columns comes from this site's own pricing as of Oct 2026.

Use Standard when

You are drafting, trying several prompts, or filling a feed. Standard is never more expensive than Prime, and on short 480P clips (2 and 5 seconds) the tiers cost the same: a 5 second 480P clip is 2 credits either way.

Use Prime when

The take is final and the clock matters. Prime is the faster model at the same settings, priced about 1.5–1.6 times Standard: 8 credits for a 10 second 720P clip instead of 5.

Frequently asked questions

What is Wan 3.0 Prime?

Prime is the faster Wan 3.0 model. It sits on the same generator as Standard on this site: same prompt box, same first and last frame slots, same reference photos. You pick the tier before you generate, and the button shows that tier's credit cost before you start.

How many credits does each tier cost?

Standard is 1 credit per 4 seconds at 480P, per 2 seconds at 720P, and per 1 second at 1080P, rounded up, minimum 1. Prime is priced about 1.5–1.6 times Standard per second; the site applies that ratio to the unrounded Standard cost, then rounds up. Standard is never more expensive, and at 480P the 2 and 5 second clips cost the same on both tiers (1 and 2 credits). Examples: a 5 second 720P clip is 3 credits on Standard and 4 on Prime; a 30 second 1080P clip is 30 on Standard and 48 on Prime.

Does Prime change length, resolution, or inputs?

No. Both tiers accept 2 to 30 second clips at 480P, 720P, or 1080P, all six aspect ratios, native audio on or off, and the same text, first frame, last frame, reference photo, URL, and PDF inputs. Switching tiers never changes what the form accepts.

Which tier should I pick?

Draft in Standard and finish in Prime. Standard is never more expensive than Prime, so it is the one for batch tries and everyday posts. Pick Prime when a take is final and you want the faster model on the pass that matters.
