Vidu Q3 API Complete Guide

Learn how to integrate the Vidu Q3 API, explore its Standard and Turbo modes, and start generating video for your applications.

What is the Vidu Q3 API?

The Vidu Q3 API is Vidu's flexible per-second video generation API for developers who want one endpoint for both premium and Turbo creation. It supports text-to-video, single-image animation, and first-and-last-frame transitions with 540p, 720p, or 1080p output, optional sound effects, and optional background music.

The Vidu Q3 API supports four modes: Standard and Turbo for both text-to-video and image-to-video. Use Turbo for fast preview loops and Standard for higher-fidelity production output — all without changing your integration.
