WAN 2.2
Alibaba's Apache-2.0 video model — open text-to-video and image-to-video with a 14B MoE variant.
About
WAN 2.2 (July 2025) is Alibaba's open video generation model: text-to-video and image-to-video, with the flagship 14B MoE (A14B) variant balancing quality and efficiency. Successor to WAN 2.1 (already in the catalog).
Apache 2.0 licensed — commercial use allowed, which distinguishes it from most Chinese labs' custom video licenses. Direct Hugging Face adoption is modest (4.6k downloads on the T2V checkpoint); the community concentrates on GitHub, ModelScope, and ComfyUI workflows. Quality is competitive among open video models though behind LTX-2's unified audio-video story. A solid Apache-2.0 baseline for open video work.

Benchmarks
Provider-claimed (Alibaba): competitive open video quality — treat as provider-claimed. Independent standardized video benchmarks are limited.
Provider-reported unless a source says otherwise. Benchmarks are marketing-adjacent by nature — treat them as directional.
Use cases
Trust score — 6/10
Scored 6/10 (metrics tier). Apache 2.0 commercial-friendly licensing is the standout trait among Chinese open video models, with a capable 14B MoE variant. Docked four points: (1) modest direct adoption (4.6k HF downloads); (2) quality claims are provider-reported; (3) no unified audio story unlike LTX-2/Sora 2; (4) documentation is thinner than Western counterparts. A solid open baseline.
