It suits filmmakers, agencies and brand teams planning multi-shot projects.
- LTX-2.5 weights and code are public; free for companies under $10M revenue

- Partner models (Veo 3.1, Kling, Seedance) available on higher tiers
- Free plan is personal use only and its credits are one-time

- Veo 3.1 access requires the $125/month Pro plan
Mochi 1 is an open text-to-video model from Genmo, built on its Asymmetric Diffusion Transformer architecture with about 10 billion parameters. Weights and inference code are released under Apache 2.0, and there is a LoRA fine-tuning trainer. Genmo also runs a free web playground. It is best for researchers and tinkerers who want a permissively licensed model to run or fine-tune.
- Permissive Apache 2.0 license
- Native ComfyUI support, including consumer-GPU workflows
- Includes a LoRA fine-tuning trainer for your own videos
- Reference repo needs about 60GB VRAM on a single GPU (at least one H100 recommended); ComfyUI can run it in under 20GB
- Released as a research preview at 480p only, and Genmo says it handles animated content poorly
- The only public checkpoint is still mochi-1-preview from October 2024
