Wan 3.0
Alibaba's Wan 3.0 generates up to 30 seconds of video in a single take, with native synchronized audio — dialogue, sound effects, and music — produced in the same pass as the picture. Pick any duration from 2 to 30 seconds, output at 480p, 720p, or 1080p, and choose from five aspect ratios or let the model frame the shot automatically.

Good to know
Billing
Runs bill your account credits at provider cost with 0% markup. The submit response includes the credit estimate; failed generations are refunded automatically. Add ?dryRun=1 to get the estimate without running anything.
Errors
Errors are always { "error": { "code", "message" } } with stable codes: unauthorized, model_not_available, invalid_parameter, insufficient_credits, rate_limited. A failed run is not an HTTP error — poll responses report status: "FAILED" with the reason.
What makes Wan 3.0 different
Single takes up to 30 seconds
Most video models top out at 10 or 12 seconds per generation and force you to stitch clips together. Wan 3.0 generates any length from 2 to 30 seconds in one pass — long enough for a complete ad spot, a full scene, or an entire product walkthrough with no cuts, no extends, and no continuity drift between segments.
Native audio — and it's the cheaper setting
Wan 3.0 generates dialogue, sound effects, and music synchronized to the picture in the same pass, steered by your prompt. Unusually, leaving audio on is also the cheaper configuration: Scenetra routes every render to the cheapest provider eligible for your exact settings, and audio-on renders qualify for a lower rate — $0.025 per second at 480p versus $0.04 with audio switched off. Unless you specifically need a silent clip, keep the default.
Three resolutions, one price ladder
480p at $0.025 per second is the drafting rung — a full 30-second take costs $0.75. The 720p default runs $0.05 per second, and 1080p finals cost $0.10 (audio-on rates). A practical workflow on a Scenetra board: iterate long takes at 480p until the pacing and audio land, then flip the resolution select to 1080p for the final render — same node, same wiring.
Billed at cost in a visual workflow
Wan 3.0 runs as a node in Scenetra's node-based editor, so you can chain it with image models — generate a style frame, refine it, then feed the look into your video prompts on one canvas. Every generation is billed at provider cost with 0% markup, pay-per-generation with no subscription gate.

Frequently asked questions
What is Wan 3.0?+
Wan 3.0 is Alibaba's video generation family. The text-to-video mode turns a prompt into a video of 2 to 30 seconds in a single take, with native synchronized audio — dialogue, sound effects, and music — generated in the same pass. It outputs at 480p, 720p, or 1080p in five aspect ratios plus an auto framing mode. On Scenetra it runs as a node in the visual workflow editor.
How much does Wan 3.0 cost?+
With audio on (the default), $0.025 per second at 480p, $0.05 at 720p, and $0.10 at 1080p — so a 10-second 720p clip with sound is about $0.50, and a full 30-second 1080p take is $3.00. With audio switched off the rates are higher: $0.04, $0.08, and $0.16 per second. Everything is billed at provider cost with 0% markup.
Why do muted renders cost more than renders with audio?+
Scenetra always routes your job to the cheapest provider that supports your exact settings. The audio-on configuration is eligible for a lower rate than the audio-off one, so switching audio off narrows the routing options and lands on a pricier path — $0.04 per second at 480p instead of $0.025. If you don't need the soundtrack, it's still cheaper to generate with audio and mute the file yourself.
Can Wan 3.0 really generate 30-second videos?+
Yes — duration is selectable at every second from 2 to 30, and the whole clip is generated as one continuous take rather than stitched segments. That makes it one of the few models that can produce a complete 30-second ad or scene in a single generation, with the audio track running the full length.
Does Wan 3.0 generate audio?+
Yes, natively. Wan 3.0 produces dialogue, sound effects, and music synchronized with the picture in the same generation pass, and you can direct the audio in your prompt alongside the visuals. Audio is on by default, adds nothing to the price — in fact the audio-on rate is lower — and can be disabled with a toggle if you want a silent clip.
Is Wan 3.0 free to try online?+
Wan 3.0 is a paid model. On Scenetra it's pay-per-generation — about $0.125 for a 5-second 480p clip with audio — with no subscription gate and nothing to cancel.
What's the difference between Wan 3.0's text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference-to-video modes?+
Text-to-video generates entirely from a prompt. Image-to-video animates a still image you upload as the starting frame, at the same prices. Reference-to-video takes up to 10 reference images, 5 reference videos and 5 audio clips: images keep people, objects, or styles consistent, videos carry a subject's look, motion or camera work, and audio drives lip-sync or timing. It's billed at $0.04 to $0.16 per second depending on resolution, and reference videos count as extra seconds. All three share the 2-30 second single-take range and native audio.
