AI Gateway Text-to-Video Generation

Generate videos from text prompts. Describe what you want to see and the model creates a video matching your description.

Every model here also runs as a background job instead of one long-lived request. See asynchronous generation below.

Google Veo

Google's Veo models generate high-quality videos with optional audio.

Browse the latest Veo video models on the AI Gateway Models page.

Veo parameters

Veo example

import { experimental_generateVideo as generateVideo } from 'ai';
import fs from 'node:fs';

const result = await generateVideo({
  model: 'google/veo-3.1-generate-001',
  prompt: 'A pangolin curled on a mossy stone in a glowing bioluminescent forest',
  aspectRatio: '16:9',
  resolution: '1920x1080',
  generateAudio: true,
});

fs.writeFileSync('output.mp4', result.videos[0].uint8Array);

KlingAI

KlingAI offers text-to-video with standard and professional quality modes. Audio generation requires v2.6+ models. Duration is 5-10 seconds.

KlingAI parameters

KlingAI example

import { experimental_generateVideo as generateVideo } from 'ai';
import fs from 'node:fs';

const result = await generateVideo({
  model: 'klingai/kling-v3.0-t2v',
  prompt: 'A chicken flying into the sunset in the style of 90s anime',
  aspectRatio: '16:9',
  duration: 5,
  providerOptions: {
    klingai: {
      mode: 'std',
    },
  },
});

fs.writeFileSync('output.mp4', result.videos[0].uint8Array);

KlingAI camera control

Control camera movement during video generation.

Camera movement types:

simple camera configuration options (use only one, set others to 0):

KlingAI multi-shot

Generate videos with multiple storyboard shots, each with its own prompt and duration. Requires Kling v3.0+ models.

Wan

Wan (by Alibaba) offers text-to-video with native audio generation and prompt enhancement. Use resolution parameter (e.g., '1280x720'), not aspectRatio.

Browse the latest Wan video models on the AI Gateway Models page.

Wan parameters

Grok Imagine Video

Grok Imagine Video (by SpaceXAI) generates videos from text prompts with support for multiple aspect ratios and resolutions. Duration ranges from 1-15 seconds.

Grok parameters

ByteDance Seedance

ByteDance's Seedance models generate high-quality videos from text prompts with optional synchronized audio and a draft mode for low-cost previews. All models output MP4 at 24fps. Seedance 2.5 generates up to 30 seconds, where the v1.x models top out at 12.

Seedance parameters

Asynchronous generation

Pass a webhook factory and the SDK registers your URL with the job instead of polling for it. The factory returns that URL and a received promise it waits on, then it fetches the videos itself.

const result = await generateVideo({
  model: gateway.videoModel('klingai/kling-v3.0-t2v'),
  prompt: 'A chicken flying into the sunset in the style of 90s anime',
  aspectRatio: '16:9',
  duration: 5,
  webhook: async () => ({
    url: callbackUrl,
    received: waitForDelivery(token),
  }),
  poll: { timeoutMs: 10 * 60 * 1000 },
});

token, callbackUrl, and waitForDelivery come from webhook-driven completion, which also covers the receiver, signature verification, and the payload shape.
