Wuli Platform — AI Image & Video Generation

Generate AI images and videos via the Wuli.art open platform API. Supports text-to-image, multi-reference image editing, text-to-video, first-frame image-to-video, first-last-frame video, auto-video, and sound control on supported video models across 17+ active models including Qwen Image, Seedream, 通义万相, 可灵, Seedance, and MiniMax Hailuo, with automatic uploads and no-watermark downloads when available.

When to Use

• User wants to generate images from a text description
• User wants to edit or transform one or more existing images with AI
• User wants to create video from a text prompt
• User wants to animate a static image into a video
• User wants to generate a video from a first frame and last frame
• User wants to generate a video from reference images and/or a reference video
• User needs high-resolution (up to 4K) AI artwork
• User wants batch image generation
• User needs to choose between multiple AI models for best results

Setup

export WULI_API_TOKEN="wuli-your-token-here"

Get your token: log in to wuli.art, click the API entry at the bottom-left corner.

No additional dependencies — uses only Python 3 standard library.

Workflow

1. (Optional) Upload reference images/videos
   --image_path ./photo.jpg             → auto-uploaded to cloud storage
   --image_url https://...              → auto-downloaded and re-uploaded
   --video_path ./clip.mp4              → auto-uploaded to cloud storage
   --image_path "./a.jpg,./b.jpg"       → uploads multiple image refs

2. Submit generation task
   → Returns recordId for tracking

3. Auto-poll for completion
   → Images: polls every 5s (up to 5 min)
   → Videos: polls every 10s (up to 20 min)

4. Auto-download results
   → Fetches no-watermark version when available
   → Saves to current directory
   → Auto-opens on macOS/Linux/Windows

Troubleshooting

• "WULI_API_TOKEN not set": Run export WULI_API_TOKEN="wuli-your-token". Get your token from wuli.art bottom-left corner → API. The token is sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>.
• "HTTP 401": Token is invalid or expired. Regenerate it on the wuli.art platform.
• "HTTP 429": Rate limited. Wait a few seconds and retry.
• "Error code 2001": Insufficient credits. Top up at wuli.art.
• "REVIEW_FAILED": Content moderation rejected the prompt. Rephrase to avoid sensitive content.
• "TIMEOUT": Generation took too long. Try a faster model or shorter duration.
• "image2video requires exactly one reference image": Use only one --image_* input for image2video.
• "flf2video requires exactly two reference images": Pass a start frame with --image_* and an end frame with --end_image_*, or provide exactly two image references total.
• "auto-video requires at least one reference image or video": Provide --image_*, --video_*, or both.
• Media upload fails: Supported image formats are jpg, jpeg, png, webp. Supported video formats are mp4, mov, avi, webm.
• Sound flag seems ignored: --sound / --no-sound only affect video models that expose sound control. Some models or modes may keep backend default behavior.

Tips

• Prompt optimization is enabled by default and is recommended for most prompts, especially short or vague ones.
• Use --no-optimize only when you need the model to follow your raw prompt as directly as possible.
• Start with the default models (Qwen Image 2.0 / 通义万相 2.2 Turbo) when you want the cheapest and simplest path.
• Generate multiple images with --n 4 and pick the best.
• Use --negative_prompt to exclude unwanted elements, e.g. --negative_prompt "blurry, low quality, watermark".
• For video, start with 5-second duration to preview, then re-generate at longer duration once you're happy with the style.
• If a video model supports sound control, --no-sound can be useful for silent exports and may reduce credits on some models.
• For flf2video, keep the start and end frames visually consistent for smoother motion.
• For auto-video, start with one video or 2-3 images before scaling up to more references.
• All results are auto-downloaded without watermarks when available.
