Pika

Mode: video · Models: 3

Vendor: Pika · Official API docs: Pika API (via Fal AI)

Pika 2.2 is a video model offered through Fal AI. It covers text-to-video and image-to-video (first-frame animation) under one pika-2.2 model, plus two specialized variants: Pika Scenes for multi-image scene composition and Pika Frames for keyframe-transition morphs. Resolutions go up to 1080p with 5- or 10-second clips.

CLI

# text-to-video
gen-ai generate -m pika-2.2 \
  -p "a large elegant white poodle on a yacht, golden hour" \
  --ar 16:9 -r 720p -d 5

# image-to-video: animate a still as the first frame (aspect derived from image)
gen-ai generate -m pika-2.2 -p "gentle camera push-in, leaves drifting" -i ./still.jpg

# Pika Scenes: compose multiple ingredient images into one scene
gen-ai generate -m pika-2.2-scenes -p "the cat and the dog playing in a sunny garden" \
  -i ./cat.jpg --image ./dog.jpg

# Pika Frames: morph between a start and end keyframe
gen-ai generate -m pika-2.2-frames -p "smooth transition" -i ./start.jpg --image ./end.jpg
