What is LongCat-Video
LongCat-Video is a foundational video generation model from Meituan with 13.6B parameters. It features a unified architecture supporting Text-to-Video, Image-to-Video, and Video-Continuation tasks within a single model. LongCat-Video natively supports long video generation, producing minutes-long videos without color drifting or quality degradation, and generates 720p 30fps videos efficiently using coarse-to-fine generation strategy.
- Text-to-Video GenerationTransform text prompts into high-quality videos with advanced neural networks. Create engaging visual content from simple text descriptions.
- Image-to-Video GenerationBring static images to life by generating smooth video animations. Create dynamic content from single images with intelligent motion synthesis.
- Video ContinuationExtend existing videos seamlessly without quality loss or color drifting. Generate minutes-long videos with consistent quality and natural transitions.
