APIXO detects the motion-video duration and applies a five-second minimum and 120-second billing cap. The rate is $0.04 per billable second at 480p or $0.08 at 720p. Five billed seconds at 480p cost $0.20; ten seconds at 720p cost $0.80.
Wan 2.2 Animate
Character AnimationMotion TransferImage + Video
Wan 2.2 Animate on APIXO combines exactly one source image with one motion video for character animation or replacement. Transfer body movement and expressions to an image, or replace the principal performer in existing footage, with Standard-mode output at 480p or 720p and duration-based asynchronous processing.

Capabilities
Performance transfer without a traditional motion-capture pipeline
Unified Animate and Replace
Select `animate` to transfer body movement and facial expressions from the motion video to the character shown in the source image. The source image guides character appearance, while the video supplies movement and performance timing; background and fine identity details still require review.
Whole-Body Motion Transfer
Select `replace` to substitute the motion video’s principal character with the character from the source image. The model attempts to retain the original movement, expressions, scene, lighting, and tone while changing the performer.
Expression Replication
Facial expressions from the recorded performance can guide the animated character alongside body motion. Fine facial identity and lip movement can still vary between frames.
Appearance-Guided Animation
The source image defines the target character’s visual appearance while Wan reconstructs the performance. Clothing, hair, proportions, and fine identity details may drift during difficult movement.
Scene-Aware Replacement
Replace mode inserts the image character into the motion footage while attempting to preserve the original actions, expressions, scene, lighting, and color tone. Edges, occluded regions, and surrounding details may still change.
Optional Prompt Guidance
APIXO accepts an optional prompt for style, behavior, or preservation priorities. Motion still comes from the required video rather than being created independently from text.
Workflow Types
Animate an image or replace a video character
Character Animation from Reference Motion
Select animate to transfer body movement and facial expressions from the motion video to the character shown in the source image. The workflow follows the supplied performance while reconstructing the image character and its surrounding scene.
Animate
Character Replacement in Existing Footage
Select replace to substitute the motion video’s principal character with the character from the source image. The model attempts to retain the original movement, expression, scene, camera, lighting, and tone while changing the performer.

Use Cases
Character workflows suited to Wan Animate
Performance Transfer
Animate Dance and Movement
Apply a recorded dance, gesture sequence, or physical performance to a character image without building a conventional motion-capture pipeline. Review hands, limbs, occlusion, fast movement, and body proportions.
Stylized Animation
Move Illustrated Characters
Animate anime, cartoon, game, or illustrated character concepts using a human performance as motion guidance. Clear framing and comparable body proportions generally provide a stronger starting point.
Concept Footage
Replace a Performer
Swap the principal character in test footage for a different character design while retaining the original action and scene direction. Inspect background edges, lighting continuity, hair, clothing, and identity stability.
Previsualization
Prototype Character Performances
Explore digital presenters, advertising concepts, social clips, film blocking, or game cinematics before a full production pass. Confirm rights and permissions for every source image, character, and performer used.

Integration Notes
01
APIXO’s unified route corresponds conceptually to Alibaba’s Animate framework and cloud move and mix behaviors, but exposes only mode: "standard".
02
Both workflow types require exactly one source-image URL and one directly accessible HTTP or HTTPS motion-video URL.
03
APIXO accepts MP4, MOV, or M4V motion-video URLs that remain reachable and support probing through range reads or full download.
04
APIXO does not publish source-image formats, file-size limits, dimension limits, aspect-ratio requirements, codec rules, frame-rate limits, or variable-frame-rate support.
05
Generation time varies with motion-video duration, output resolution, queue load, and route health. APIXO does not publish a fixed first-poll delay or polling interval for this route.
06
APIXO does not publish a result-retention period for this route, so applications should download and store successful MP4 outputs promptly.
Frequently Asked Questions
The documentation states only that billing is capped at 120 seconds. It does not confirm that arbitrarily long videos are accepted, truncated, or fully processed, so the billing cap should not be treated as an input or output-duration guarantee.
APIXO does not document output-audio behavior for either workflow. Do not assume that source audio is preserved, regenerated, or removed until the active route has been tested with representative footage.
Prefer one clearly visible character, similar on-screen scale and body proportions between the image and motion video, minimal occlusion, and high-definition source material. Multiple people, cropped limbs, cuts, fast camera changes, or blurry footage can reduce reliability.
APIXO exposes no professional mode, negative prompt, camera preset, motion-strength control, mask, bounding box, pose keypoints, multiple references, reference weights, denoise setting, output-count control, or explicit audio parameter. Seed-guided attempts are not deterministic.
