4 AI video generators, same prompts: Seedance vs Wan vs Hailuo vs PixVerse
Seedance 2.0, Wan 3.0 Prime, Hailuo 2.3 and PixVerse V6 got the same two prompts. See every clip, what each got right or missed, and what it costs.
Each model got two prompts from text alone, once each, and the clip you see is the one it returned. One prompt is a product shot, and one is a busy scene with a lot to get right.
Two of the four made clips with sound. Turn the sound on to hear them.
Test 1: a product shot
The prompt
A frosted amber glass perfume bottle stands on a wet black slate block. A single water drop slides slowly down the glass while a soft green haze drifts behind it. Slow camera push-in, glossy commercial studio light, no text, no logo.
Seedance 2.0
200 credits for 5 secThe boldest camera move: a push-in until the bottle fills the frame. It made a teardrop bottle, and the drop falls from the neck instead of sliding down the glass. Comes with sound.
Try Seedance 2.0 →Wan 3.0 Prime
175 credits for 5 secA frosted amber bottle on wet slate in green haze, with the drop sliding down the glass. The camera barely moves. Comes with sound.
Try Wan 3.0 Prime →Hailuo 2.3
70 credits for 6 secVery close to the brief: frosted amber bottle, slate, green haze, the drop sliding all the way down. Little camera movement, and no sound.
Try Hailuo 2.3 →PixVerse V6
57 credits for 5 secOpens on an extreme close-up of the drop, then rises to the top of the bottle. The glass came out clear rather than frosted. No sound.
Try PixVerse V6 →What this test shows
For a clean product shot that matches the brief, Hailuo 2.3 did it at a fraction of Seedance's price. Seedance gave the most dramatic move but changed the bottle.
Test 2: a busy scene
The prompt
A golden retriever in a tiny yellow raincoat holds a small lantern on a stormy rocky coast at night. Waves crash on the rocks below and the lighthouse beam sweeps across the sky as the dog turns its head toward the sea. Slow camera push-in, cinematic.
Seedance 2.0
200 credits for 5 secA moody push-in as the dog turns toward the sea, lantern glowing. No lighthouse anywhere. Comes with sound.
Try Seedance 2.0 →Wan 3.0 Prime
175 credits for 5 secGot every part: raincoat, lantern, crashing waves, a sweeping lighthouse beam, the head turn and the push-in. Comes with sound.
Try Wan 3.0 Prime →Hailuo 2.3
70 credits for 6 secA wide stormy coast with the beam sweeping the sky and the dog in its raincoat with the lantern. A softer, animated-film look. No sound.
Try Hailuo 2.3 →PixVerse V6
57 credits for 5 secLighthouse beam and waves are there, but the push-in keeps going until the frame is just the dog's face. No sound.
Try PixVerse V6 →What this test shows
Wan 3.0 Prime was the only one to get every part of the busy prompt. When a scene has many things that must all appear, it was the safest pick of the four.
