Pika
Developer of Pika video generation, Pika Audio and the PikaStream real-time visual engine. Its hosted third-party model catalog is distinct from its native releases.
Six numbered video releases, four audio models, four unversioned editing services and two live-video generations reviewed. Current direct media contracts and nine fal routes are captured. Pika 2.0, early releases, current Pikatwists/Pikaformance access, PikaStream 2.0, web-plan continuity and private variants remain under review.
Start with the job your model needs to do. Then narrow by capabilities, provider and price.
Compare every model with the same request.
Estimate = (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) / 1,000,000. Include conversation history in input and billed reasoning in output. Input-only decision models ignore the output setting; enter all billed input for one decision, including its question and criteria. Media, tools and discounts are separate.
