Eight AI video tools that run locally or offer free credits
Overview

The open-weight models named are Wan 2.2, LTX-2.5, HunyuanVideo 1.5 (8.3B parameters, about 14GB VRAM) and MiniMax H3, which the post says generates video with stereo audio up to 15 seconds. The post also names WanGP, which it says runs video models on 6-8GB VRAM GPUs.
The hosted options named are Sogni, Mage and Grok Imagine. The post says Mage gives 300 free gems with no card required, and that Grok Imagine makes videos up to 15 seconds with native audio. The post advises readers to check each tool's limits before using it.
