Product Positioning

What makes it different

A proprietary video model platform optimized for fast generation plus reference-based consistency (multi-reference + reusable “My References”) for characters, objects, and scenes.

Primary use case

Generate short cinematic and anime-style clips from text/images, with reference-based control for consistent characters and scenes.

Core problem it solves

Most video generators trade off speed, consistency, and affordability—Vidu aims to make fast generation and repeatable characters/scenes accessible to everyday creators.
