About this ranking

Voters choose the clip they prefer for a shared prompt, and those votes become a rating. Video gets fewer votes than text, so scores here carry more uncertainty, especially for new models.

The table covers video made from text alone. Tools that animate a photo or edit a clip are rated separately by Arena and are not included here.

FAQ

What is the best AI video generator?

By Arena's votes as of November 9, 2026, Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash ranks first with 1,540, then Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash and gemini-omni-flash.

Does the table include sound, length or price?

No. It only reflects which clip voters preferred. Check length limits, audio and price with the app that offers the model.

Is cv.cm's photo to video tool in this ranking?

No. cv.cm's tool moves a virtual camera through a photo in your browser and does not generate motion from text, so it is a different kind of tool.
