AI video comparison
The AI video model comparison, updated for 2026.
We run these engines against each other every week. Here's what actually holds up — realism, motion, prompt adherence, cost — with none of the marketing scoring you see on model landing pages.
Capabilities
What we tested.
Realism
How lifelike are faces, skin, physics, cloth? The stuff people notice first.
Motion
How natural is complex movement, camera work, action — without the uncanny drift.
Prompt adherence
How close is the output to what you actually asked for on take one.
Cost per second
What a 6-second cinematic clip really costs, all-in.
