Vidu Q3 Turbo — AI Video Generator

Vidu Q3 Turbo generates video from images or text with native audio-video co-generation — dialogue, sound effects, and background music created in a single pass. Up to 16 seconds at 1080p with start-end frame control. Run it available on ComfyUI Web.

Why Use Vidu AI

Image to Video

Upload any image and animate it into video with natural motion. Vidu Q3 Turbo handles complex scenes with temporal consistency across the full duration.

Native Audio-Video Co-Generation

Generates synchronized dialogue, sound effects, ambient audio, and background music in a single forward pass — no post-production audio alignment needed.

Up to 16 Seconds

Generate video clips from 1 to 16 seconds. Longer than most comparable models (typically 5–10 seconds), giving more creative flexibility per generation.

540p to 1080p Resolution

Choose between 540p, 720p, or 1080p output at 24fps. Five aspect ratios supported: 16:9, 9:16, 3:4, 4:3, and 1:1.

What Is Vidu AI?

Vidu is a video generation platform developed by the Chinese AI company Shengshu Technology. The Q3 series (Q3, Q3 Pro, Q3 Turbo) represents their third-generation architecture, with the Turbo variant optimized for speed and cost efficiency.

Vidu Q3 Turbo is positioned as the fast, affordable option in the lineup — running roughly 50% cheaper and significantly faster than Q3 Pro while maintaining competitive output quality.

Audio-Video Co-Generation

Vidu Q3 Turbo's audio co-generation creates four types of synchronized audio: dialogue (with lip-sync), sound effects tied to on-screen actions, ambient environmental audio, and background music that matches the scene mood.

This is generated in a single model pass, meaning the audio and video are temporally aligned from creation rather than synchronized in post-processing. The result is more natural timing — footsteps land on impact, doors sound when they close, and dialogue matches lip movement.

Start-End Frame Control

Beyond standard image-to-video (animate a single image) and text-to-video, Vidu supports a start-end-to-video mode. Provide a starting frame and an ending frame, and the model generates a smooth transition between them.

This is valuable for precise animation control — define keyframes and let Vidu interpolate the motion. Combined with the 16-second maximum duration, it enables more controlled creative output than most competing models.

Vidu Q3 Turbo Pricing Context

Via API, Vidu Q3 Turbo costs $0.036–$0.071 per second depending on resolution (540p–1080p), with off-peak rates at 50% discount. A 10-second 720p clip costs roughly $0.54.

On ComfyUI Web, you use credits instead of direct API billing. trial-credit tier credits let you generate several clips before any payment. Compared to Sora 2 ($1.00–$5.00 for a 10-second clip), Vidu is roughly 2–10x cheaper depending on configuration.
