Alibaba

Alibaba Group is a Chinese multinational technology company founded in 1999 and headquartered in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Originally built around e-commerce and cloud computing, Alibaba has become one of the most prolific contributors to open-weight AI research,…

Wan 3.0 is the text-to-video entry point into the newest generation of Alibaba's Wan visual model line, which is developed alongside — but separate from — the Qwen language models such as Qwen 3.8 27B. On this catalog it is described as a photorealistic generator with strong subject coherence across frames, and it is dated August 2026.

The headline change versus earlier releases in this family, Wan 2.7 and Wan 2.6, is clip length and input breadth: Alibaba presents Wan 3.0 as producing up to 30 seconds of video in a single generation, and as accepting a wide range of input types rather than prompts alone. Longer single-pass output matters because it reduces the need to stitch several short clips together to build a continuous shot.

Access is through Alibaba Cloud Model Studio, whose video generation service exposes text-driven and image-driven synthesis endpoints. Alibaba does not publish a parameter count or weights for this release, so it is used as a hosted service rather than run locally.

Companion Wan 3.0 variants on this catalog handle the other input paths: Wan 3.0 image-to-video animates a supplied still, while Wan 3.0 Reference conditions generation on reference material. For downloadable Wan models, the catalog also lists Wan 2.2 Enhanced.
