Video Generation
AnyCap video generation gives agents one CLI for text-to-video and image-to-video workflows. Agents can generate short cinematic clips from prompts, animate still images into motion, and run video creation tasks through one interface instead of stitching together separate video generation APIs. The result is a cleaner video generation layer for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and similar agent products.
Answer-first summary
Use Veo 3.1 when the first-pass clip needs to look more premium from a text brief, Kling 3.0 when the workflow leans on cinematic motion or more exploratory image-to-video work, and Seedance 1.5 Pro when the team wants a steadier production-friendly default.
Used with Claude Opus 4.7
Claude Code on Opus 4.7 + AnyCap video generation = insane
Claude Code now runs on Claude Opus 4.7 — the strongest reasoning and coding agent Anthropic has shipped. Opus 4.7 still does not natively generate video. Pair it with AnyCap and the same terminal session reaches Veo 3.1, Seedance 1.5 Pro, and Kling 3.0 through one CLI and one login. The Opus 4.7 + AnyCap combo is the recommended default for video-heavy agent workflows in 2026.
Why this capability page matters
Use Veo 3.1 when the first-pass clip needs to look more premium from a text brief, Kling 3.0 when the workflow leans on cinematic motion or more exploratory image-to-video work, and Seedance 1.5 Pro when the team wants a steadier production-friendly default.
A dedicated capability page helps teams decide when video generation should become an agent action rather than remain only a product idea. It links use cases, model decisions, command examples, and operational next steps in one place so the workflow is easier to route and reuse.
How to choose among video models
Newer Seedance default
Seedance 2.0
Best when the agent needs the newer Seedance entry for cinematic product videos and polished image-to-video workflows.
Open model guide →Cinematic motion
Kling 3.0
Best when the workflow wants stronger motion style or more flexible image-to-video iteration.
Open model guide →Premium first pass
Veo 3.1
Best when the text brief needs to become a more polished teaser or concept clip on the first generation.
Open model guide →Supported models
| Model | Modes | Best fit |
|---|---|---|
| Seedance 2.0 | text-to-video, image-to-video | High-quality cinematic and product video workflows where agents need the newer Seedance model entry. |
| Kling 3.0 | text-to-video, image-to-video | Cinematic motion, realistic scene animation, and image-to-video workflows that need controllable camera dynamics. |
| Seedance 2.0 Fast | text-to-video, image-to-video | Previewing, ideation, and high-volume video iteration when an agent needs faster turnaround. |
| Veo 3.1 | text-to-video, image-to-video | Premium video output, polished motion, and story-driven clips where the first pass needs to look strong. |
| Veo 3.1 Fast | text-to-video, image-to-video | Rapid creative iteration and preview generation when an agent wants the Veo family with faster turnaround. |
| Sora 2 Pro | text-to-video, image-to-video | High-end narrative, cinematic, product, and realistic video generation when teams want an OpenAI video model through the same CLI. |
| Seedance 1.5 Pro | text-to-video, image-to-video | Repeatable product videos, smooth image-to-video jobs, and production workflows that need a steady default. |
| Kling O1 | image-to-video | Product demos, stylized motion design, and image-conditioned clips where the source frame should drive the video. |

FAQ
What does AnyCap video generation let agents do?
It gives agents one command surface for text-to-video and image-to-video workflows. Teams can generate new clips, animate reference images, and run repeatable video creation tasks without separate provider-specific integrations.
Which video models are available through AnyCap today?
The current AnyCap video generation catalog includes Veo 3.1, Veo 3.1 Fast, Sora 2 Pro, Kling 3.0, Kling O1, Hailuo 2.3, Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.0 Fast, and Seedance 1.5 Pro. Each listed model is available through the same AnyCap video generation API, CLI, and auth flow.
Why does this page include image-to-video as well as text-to-video?
Agent workflows often start from a screenshot, design frame, or product still rather than a prompt alone. AnyCap treats both text-to-video and image-to-video as one video generation capability so the workflow stays consistent.
Is this page about a video generation API or a CLI workflow?
It is both. Teams often search for a text-to-video API or video generation API, while agent execution usually happens through the AnyCap CLI.
