  • google/nano-banana-2: [Core Function] Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash Image) is an extremely fast text-to-image model. [Strengths] It is optimized for high-speed, high-volume visual generation, creative prompting, and rapid stylistic experimentation. [Best For] Highly recommended for: rapid creative iteration, generating large batches of images quickly, and artistic/stylized graphics. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you require strict, high-end photorealism (use the Imagen 4 series instead). [Routing] Route to this model for ‘fast’, ‘creative’, or ‘stylized’ high-volume requests.
  • google/nano-banana-pro: [Core Function] Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image) is a high-capability creative image model. [Strengths] It balances the creative flexibility and speed of the Nano series with higher fidelity output. [Best For] Highly recommended for: high-quality stylized art and complex creative compositions. [Limitations] Do NOT use for absolute photorealism (use Imagen 4). [Routing] Use this model for high-quality, creative, non-photorealistic requests.
  • kling/kling-v3-t2i: [Core Function] Kling V3 T2I is the flagship text-to-image generation model. [Strengths] It delivers state-of-the-art aesthetic quality, high-resolution outputs (up to 2K), and exceptional prompt adherence. [Best For] Highly recommended for: professional concept art, photorealistic portraits, and high-fidelity image generation. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you need to strictly reference or edit an existing image. [Routing] Use this as the default model for all text-to-image requests on the Kling platform.
  • vidu/viduq3-pro-t2v: [Core Function] Vidu Q3 Pro T2V is a premium cinematic text-to-video generation model. [Strengths] It excels at generating top-tier, realistic videos from text with support for advanced multi-shot ‘smart cuts’, complex physics, and simultaneous audio-visual generation. [Best For] Highly recommended for: cinematic storytelling, professional advertising, short films, and high-fidelity concept visualizations. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if the user is looking for an instant, low-latency preview, as generation takes longer. It does not support automatic BGM addition. [Routing] Use this model by default for high-quality text-to-video requests. If the user specifically asks for ‘fast’ or ‘quick’ generation, switch to the Q3 Turbo T2V model.
  • vidu/viduq3-turbo-t2v: [Core Function] Vidu Q3 Turbo T2V is a fast text-to-video generation model. [Strengths] It excels at rapidly generating smooth, dynamic videos from text descriptions with very low latency. [Best For] Highly recommended for: fast prototyping, quick visual brainstorming, generating background b-roll, and scenarios where generation speed is prioritized. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you need ultimate cinematic quality, complex audio-visual synchronization, or multi-shot ‘smart cuts’. It does not support automatic BGM addition. [Routing] Choose this ‘Turbo’ model when the user emphasizes ‘quick’, ‘fast’, or needs immediate results. If the user demands the highest cinematic quality or advanced audio-visual features, choose the Q3 Pro T2V model instead.
  • vidu/viduq3-r2v: [Core Function] Vidu Q3 R2V is a high-quality reference-to-video generation model. [Strengths] It excels at generating detailed, cinematic videos that precisely follow a text prompt while highly preserving the character identity from provided reference images. [Best For] Highly recommended for: professional character-driven storytelling, high-fidelity avatar generation in new scenes, and cinematic films requiring consistent actors. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you just want to add motion to an existing image (use I2V). This model creates new scenes based on the prompt while keeping the character. [Routing] Use this by default when the user wants to generate a video of a specific character (provided via image) doing something new (provided via text prompt).
  • minimax/hailuo-2.3-i2v: [Core Function] Hailuo 2.3 I2V is a flagship image-to-video generation model optimized for character animation. [Strengths] It excels at animating human characters from a single image, maintaining consistent facial features, producing natural micro-expressions, and handling stylized artwork seamlessly. [Best For] Highly recommended for: animating character concept art, bringing portraits to life, and creating stylized/anime motion sequences. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model for last-frame conditioning (it does not support FL2V). Do NOT use if you need 1080p resolution for 10 seconds (1080p is capped at 6s). [Routing] Use this model by default for high-quality image-to-video tasks involving people or art. For physical realism or 10s at 1080p, route to Hailuo 02 I2V. For cost-effective/faster generation, route to Hailuo 2.3 Fast I2V.
  • minimax/hailuo-2.3-t2v: [Core Function] Hailuo 2.3 T2V is a flagship text-to-video generation model optimized for human performance and stylization. [Strengths] It excels at capturing intricate human motion, nuanced facial micro-expressions, prompt adherence, and applying highly stylized aesthetics (e.g., anime, ink wash, game CG) to video. [Best For] Highly recommended for: character-driven storytelling, close-up emotional shots, stylized artistic videos, and dialogue scenes. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you need native 1080p resolution for 10 full seconds (1080p is capped at 6 seconds; generating 10s forces 768p resolution). [Routing] Use this model by default for text-to-video requests involving humans, faces, or specific art styles. If the user requires strict physical realism/world dynamics or native 1080p for 10 seconds, route to Hailuo 02 T2V instead.
  • pixverse/video-restyle: [Core Function] PixVerse Restyle re-renders an existing video into a new visual style. [Strengths] Consistent style transfer across all frames. [Best For] Turning footage into anime/3D/painterly looks, stylized remixes. [Limitations] Do NOT use this to change content, motion, or add new scenes; it only re-renders the visual style of an existing video. It requires an input video, and you must provide EITHER restyle_id (a preset style code from the PixVerse restyle list) OR restyle_prompt (free-text style, max 2048 chars), not both. [Routing] Use when the user wants to change the look of an existing video. Use restyle_id for an official preset, restyle_prompt for a custom style.
