About Ikat

Ikat is an AI creative studio that generates videos from text prompts or static images using a selection of AI models.

Available models include MiniMax H3 Max, MiniMax H3 Max Turbo, MiniMax H3, Seedance 2.5, Kling 3.0, and Wan 3.0, each with different capabilities and pricing. Users can preview the required credits before generating content and continue working in a studio workspace where previous creations are stored. The interface adjusts controls dynamically based on the selected model, ensuring only supported options are available. Ikat operates on a credit-based system where the same balance applies to both image and video generation, with costs varying by model and settings.
