Wan 2.2 — fast, cost-effective AI videos in Kapwing
Powerful image to video and text to video capabilities
AI videos built for style variation and iteration
Wan 2.2 is a versatile AI video generator built for creators who need multiple visual styles. Start with a text prompt or a start frame image to generate styles ranging from cinematic to anime and photorealistic in seconds.
Inside Kapwing, Wan 2.2 is available to try for free as part of a full online video editor — on desktop, mobile, iPhone, and Android.

The Wan AI video generator is Kapwing's most cost-effective AI video tool, making it practical to generate multiple style variations or compile A/B tests without burning through credits.
As Alibaba continues to develop the Wan AI model series, Kapwing keeps the integration current so the latest generation quality and Wan AI workflow improvements are always available — without switching tools or running a local setup via Hugging Face or ComfyUI.
