VODOOWhich engine to use.
Every pair below is a decision somebody actually makes. The question is what it turns on, and the two answers are when each one is right. If you would rather not choose, you do not have to — the studio picks for you on every ordinary render.
Video models
Veo 3.1 or Kling 2.6?
Do you want the sound in the take, or the best physical motion from a picture you already have?
Veo 3.1 or Sora 2?
Both of these can talk. Is this one beautiful shot, or a scene with a joke in it?
Veo 3.1 or Ray?
Is the hard part the sound, or the light?
Kling 2.6 or Hailuo?
Is the motion the point, or the face?
Kling 2.6 or Wan?
One good take, or ten cheap ones?
Kling 2.6 or PixVerse?
Are you directing the motion, or reaching for the effect everybody is posting?
Runway or Veo 3.1?
Is this one shot, or a run of shots that have to match?
Seedance or Sora 2?
Do you need the cut, or the story?
Kling 2.6 or Sora 2?
Is the hard part how it moves, or what happens?
Kling 2.6 or Seedance?
One perfect moving shot, or a short scene already cut?
Veo 3.1 or Seedance?
Does it need to be heard, or does it need to be edited?
Hailuo or Seedance?
Is it one face doing one big thing, or a scene that cuts?
Runway or Kling 2.6?
Are you shooting a series, or one shot that has to move just right?
Wan or Seedance?
Both are cheap enough to try often. Do you need many single clips, or a scene that cuts?
Ray or Kling 2.6?
Is it the light and the camera that sell the shot, or the body in it?
Hailuo or PixVerse?
Is this a reaction you are directing, or a trend you want on your own photo?
Wan or Hailuo?
On a small budget, is the clip about a thing or about a face?
Image models
Nano Banana or FLUX?
Are you changing a photograph, or making one?
FLUX or Imagen?
Crisp and photographic, or rich and colourful?
FLUX or Seedream?
One perfect picture, or a set that belongs together?
Ideogram or Recraft?
Are the words the design, or is the design your brand's?
Nano Banana or Seedream?
Keep the same person, or build the whole set?
FLUX or Ideogram?
Is it a photograph with words in it, or a design made of words?
