FAQ
How much does Wan (Alibaba) cost?
Pricing starts at $0.0336 per image for the most affordable variant. You pay per call from your credit balance — no monthly subscription, no minimum commitment. First $10 on signup are free.
Is this an official Alibaba API?
AI Generate is an AI model aggregator that routes calls to Alibaba's upstream API. You get the exact same model outputs with simpler billing (pay per call, no contracts), one API key for 288 models, and the same OpenAI-compatible request shape across all providers.
Can I use Wan (Alibaba) in production?
Yes. The endpoint is rate-limited to 20 requests per 10 seconds per API key, retries are idempotent via taskId, and async results are delivered via polling or webhook. Set a spend cap in dashboard settings to protect against runaway usage.
Which Wan (Alibaba) variant should I pick?
For first tests, start with the cheapest variant (lowest "Price USD" in the table above). Upgrade to higher-resolution or "Quality" tiers only when you have validated prompts. The Playground (free) lets you A/B test all variants before spending credits.
