About aiVideoGen
aiVideoGen integrates Adobe After Effects (2025 and 2026) with several Replicate video models, including Kling 2.1, Bytedance Seedance 1 Pro, Google Veo‑3 Fast, MiniMax hailuo‑02, and PixVerse v5. Users can generate video from text prompts or images within a single panel. Generated clips are automatically downloaded, saved, and inserted into the current composition, scaled and centered, eliminating the need for external file handling. A one‑click stage snapshot provides an image reference usable across all models, while MiniMax hailuo‑02, PixVerse v5, and WAN 2.2 Fast also accept first‑frame and last‑frame inputs from the timeline. Per‑model controls adjust aspect ratio, duration, resolution, and quality, and a built‑in cost estimator shows expected charges. The panel includes links for Replicate account access and API‑key management, and alerts warn of sensitive content blocks or insufficient credits.
