Short reference notes on Alibaba's Wan 3.0 video model, written while building a front-end for it. Every number is checked against the vendor's own documentation and dated, including the numbers that are unflattering.
If you integrated Alibaba's video models before August 2026, you almost certainly wrote a router. Everyone did, because the API made you: text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-t
A small thing that turns into a real problem the moment you have to write a sentence with a date in it.
The specification table these notes are drawn from lives at wan-3.run/wan-3-0-specs, with each row linked to its source.
