Choose Wan 3.0 if you can call Alibaba Cloud Model Studio or Qwen Cloud yourself and you need 30-second single takes or video built from a document.
Choose Imgo when you want to generate now in a hosted workspace: Seedance 2.0 with image, video and audio references, plus editing, assets and a canvas. Wan 3.0 itself is not available on Imgo.
The table describes documented capabilities and checks to make, without assigning unsupported scores or assuming a plan includes every tool.
| Decision factor | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Best suited to | Developers who can integrate Alibaba Cloud's API, versus creators and teams who want a hosted video workspace without an integration project. |
| Image and video | Wan 3.0 is a video model reached through an API. Imgo hosts several video models, plus image generation and editing for the frames that feed them. |
| References and editing | Wan 3.0 takes up to 10 images, 5 video clips, 5 audio clips and one document or link per request. Seedance 2.0 on Imgo takes image, video and audio references but no documents, and Imgo's video editor revises a finished clip by instruction. |
| Character and brand consistency | Run the same character and product references through both and inspect identity at the end of the clip, not only at the start: long takes are where drift shows. |
| API, batch, and team | Wan 3.0 is API-first on Alibaba Cloud, and which models you can call depends on the region. Imgo exposes batch, team and API surfaces around the models it hosts. |
| Price and free use | Alibaba Cloud bills Wan 3.0 per generated second in three resolution tiers, and Imgo does not price it. Imgo charges per generation from a live credit quote for the models it runs. |
Wan 3.0 renders single takes of 2 to 30 seconds with native audio at up to 1080p, and reads documents, spreadsheets, slides and public web pages as references alongside up to 10 images, 5 video clips and 5 audio clips.
Suggested test conditions; no independent benchmark result is claimed.
Prompt
One continuous 15-second take, no cuts: a barista in a green apron pours latte art at a sunlit counter while the camera pushes in slowly from a medium shot to a close-up of the cup; steam rises and café ambience is audible.
Input and controls
Use the same barista reference image and 16:9 framing on both paths, generate three takes each, and keep every take; on Imgo, run Seedance 2.0 at 15 seconds.
