Real outputs generated by the API
Cinematic text-to-video
“Neo-noir Tokyo street at night, neon reflections on wet pavement, slow dolly-in handheld camera”
Image-to-video animation
“Animate a portrait — subtle facial expression, natural breathing, soft hair motion”
Reference-to-video (character consistency)
“Maintain character identity and outfit across the entire fashion-walk shot”
Prompt-driven video edit
“Restyle a clip into rainy neo-noir without breaking the underlying motion”
Why HappyHorse 1.0
Five modes in one model family
Text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, video edit, and video extend — all under Alibaba HappyHorse 1.0. Switch between them by changing one model slug.
720p and 1080p output
720p starts at $1.40 per 5 seconds for fast iteration. 1080p is billed at 2x the 720p rate for final delivery. Predictable cost step-up.
Strong prompt fidelity
Alibaba's training emphasizes cinematic motion, subject consistency, and prompt adherence — especially good for character continuity across reference-to-video and edit/extend chains.
Unified Hypereal API
Same /v1/videos/generate endpoint as Seedance, Kling, Veo, Sora 2, and WAN 2.7. Switch model slugs to A/B compare without re-integrating.
