Animate one input image from a text prompt with the Vidu Q3 Turbo API — fast, low-latency, cost-efficient rendering, up to 1080p, 1-10 seconds.
The Vidu Q3 Turbo API (video_generate.vidu_q3_turbo_i2v_novita) is the fast, low-latency image-to-video mode: you pass exactly one input image plus a text prompt through image_urls, and the Vidu Q3 Turbo API animates that still frame into a moving clip with coherent motion while keeping the subject stable. Tuned for speed and cost efficiency, the Vidu Q3 Turbo API supports a variable 1 to 10 second duration, resolution up to 1080p, and an optional generated audio track with an audio_type control for everything, speech only, or sound effects only.
Pricing on the Vidu Q3 Turbo API is $0.234 per generation — 15% below the official rate of $0.275. It uses one RouterBase key, no separate SDK or account, and the same JSON shape covers 200+ other models. Because the Vidu Q3 Turbo API is async and OpenAI-compatible, you POST /v1/images/generations with the model and image_urls, then poll GET /v1/images/generations/{id} until status=success. Teams reach for the Vidu Q3 Turbo API for high-volume pipelines — product loops, avatar clips, and ad variants — where the 15% saving compounds across every run.

Get started with the Vidu Q3 Turbo API in 3 steps
From sign-up to your first image-to-video call in under 5 minutes.
Supply one image and a prompt
Put exactly one source image URL in image_urls and describe the motion, mood, and camera in the prompt field (up to 2000 characters). The Vidu Q3 Turbo API animates that frame, so a concrete prompt yields the cleanest image-to-video motion.
POST with image_urls
Send image_urls plus prompt and optional duration, resolution, audio, and audio_type to POST /v1/images/generations. The Vidu Q3 Turbo API returns an async job id immediately; poll GET /v1/images/generations/{id} until status=success.
Poll and download the clip
The success response from the Vidu Q3 Turbo API contains a signed CDN URL under the results array. Drop it into a video tag or copy it to your own bucket — ready with no post-processing.
