FAQs

Does LTX-2.5 provide an API?

Yes. The LTX-2.5 API is a high-performance video generation interface that enables developers to generate HD and 4K video, set custom frame rates and durations, and integrate advanced AI video capabilities into production systems.

Is LTX-2.5 open source?

Yes. LTX-2.5 is an open source AI video generation model that provides full access to model weights, code, and reference pipelines, enabling users to study, modify, and extend the system.

What pricing options are available for LTX-2.5’s API?

Video generation in the LTX API is billed per second of output video. Pricing depends on the selected model and output resolution, not on the number of requests or assets generated.

Why should I pick LTX-2.5 over other video generation models?

LTX-2.5 is the strongest choice for production-ready generation with synchronized audio — winning on accessibility, price, and audio-video cohesion compared to alternatives like Sora, Veo, and Runway.

Who typically uses the LTX Models?

LTX Models are built for teams that need reliable, scalable video generation — including enterprises building AI-powered video products and creative platforms aggregating multiple models.
