AI video models in Telegram
The bot runs several video models in one chat, and switching between them is a straight trade between what a second costs and how good the result needs to look. Grok Imagine is the entry point, cheap enough to draft with and always sounded. Wan 3.0 is the everyday workhorse and takes a reference video. Kling O3 goes cinematic and reaches 4K. Seedance 2.5 is the quality tier and also accepts a reference clip. Gemini Omni holds one rate from 720p to 1080p and a separate one at 4K, which makes longer clips unusually cheap. Every model animates a photo as well as a written idea. Pick one below for its rates, clip lengths, aspect ratios and what it does with sound.
