Text to Video
Also known as: T2V, AI text to video, text2video
Definition
Text-to-video is the task of generating a video clip directly from a text prompt, using a generative AI model that maps language to motion, scene composition, and visual style.
In more detail
Modern text-to-video models — OpenAI Sora 2, Google Veo 3, Kling 2.6, Seedance, Hailuo — produce clips ranging from 4 to 60 seconds with cinematic camera moves, consistent characters, and complex physics. The quality leap since 2023 (Runway Gen-2 era) has been roughly 100×, driven by diffusion-transformer hybrids trained on hundreds of millions of clips. Mobbi exposes every major model from one prompt interface.

FAQ
What is the best text-to-video AI in 2026?+
OpenAI Sora 2 and Google Veo 3.1 lead on cinematic quality. Kling 2.6 is strong on motion control. Seedance offers the best price/performance for batch work. Mobbi gives access to all of them.
How long can AI text-to-video clips be?+
Mainstream models top out at 8–20 seconds per generation. Mobbi's Video Extender stitches longer sequences while keeping subject and scene consistency.
