Vidu Q2 | [text-to-image]
Vidu's Q2 text-to-image model delivers single-frame image generation at $0.10 per image with support for three aspect ratios. Trading video generation capabilities for simplified image output, this endpoint focuses on static visual creation from text prompts up to 1500 characters. Built for rapid prototyping teams needing cost-predictable image generation without video overhead.
Use Cases: Marketing asset creation | Concept visualization | Static content workflows
Performance
At $0.10 per image, Vidu Q2 positions as a mid-tier image generation option, trading advanced features for straightforward execution.
| Metric | Result | Context |
|---|---|---|
| Prompt Length | 1500 characters max | Sufficient for detailed scene descriptions |
| Aspect Ratios | 3 presets (16:9, 9:16, 1:1) | Standard social/web formats |
| Cost per Image | $0.10 | 10 generations per $1.00 on fal |
| Output Format | PNG via URL | Single static image delivery |
Text-to-Image Without the Complexity
Vidu's architecture strips video generation down to single-frame output, processing text prompts through a simplified inference path that outputs static images in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 aspect ratios.
What this means for you:
- Straightforward prompt handling: Process up to 1500 characters of descriptive text without multi-modal complexity or reference image requirements
- Fixed aspect ratio control: Three preset ratios eliminate resolution guesswork for social media, web, and square formats
- Deterministic generation: Optional seed parameter enables reproducible outputs for iterative refinement workflows
- Single-output simplicity: Returns one image per request with predictable PNG format output via URL delivery
