Turn text and images into short AI videos
What they are
Flux
Flux is a family of text-to-image models from Black Forest Labs, the team behind Stable Diffusion. It generates high-resolution, photorealistic and stylized images from text prompts, with strong prompt adherence and fine detail. Creators, designers, and developers use it via API or third-party platforms. Flux produces genuinely impressive output, but there is no native consumer app, so getting started requires some technical setup or a compatible host.
Pika
Pika is a web-based AI video generator that converts text prompts, images, and video clips into short animated or cinematic scenes. It targets content creators, social media marketers, and designers who need quick video assets without traditional editing software. The output quality has improved significantly since launch, though clip length stays short and consistency across multiple generations can vary.
