Ray3
Ray3 is an intelligent video model designed to tell stories. Ray3 is capable of thinking and reasoning in visuals and offers state of the art physics and consistency. In a world's first, Ray3 generates videos in 16-bit High Dynamic Range color bringing generative video to pro studio pipelines. The all-new Draft Mode enables you to explore many more ideas, much faster and tell better stories than ever before.
Ray3 Highlights
Our Most Powerful Model
HDR
Strikingly beautiful native 16bit High Dynamic Range generations.
Reasoning
Ray3 can think in concepts and visuals, understand intent, evaluate itself, and iterate to deliver better generations in fewer tries.
Annotation
Draw on images to get precisely what you want in the right place, with the right motion, and iterate without prompt engineering.
Draft Mode
An all new way to discover the perfect idea, in near realtime. 5x faster, 5x cheaper.
SOTA Physics & Controls
Ray3 brings incredible realism, accurate physics, improves image-to-video, keyframes, and controls.
HiFi
A new technique to master draft videos into production-grade 4K HDR.
Reasoning
Creative work is deeply intellectual. AI for creatives should be intelligent. Ray3 is capable of understanding your intent, thinking by generating visuals and concepts, and judging its outputs to give you better results. Reasoning enables creating more complex scenes, intricate multi-step motion, and do all of it faster.
Chain of Thought
Interpret prompts with nuance, judges early drafts, and retries until your quality bar is met.
Visual Annotation
Ray3 can interpret visual annotations like a creative partner and enables you to precisely specify layout, motion and character interactions.
HDR
Ray3 is the world's first model to deliver studio-grade HDR through native high dynamic range color generation. Vivid and striking HDR videos can be created from text prompts, SDR images, as well as SDR video and exported as 16-bit EXR for seamless integration into pro workflows.
HDR Generation
Tone map HDR videos to the perfect look.
EXR Export
Export videos as 16-bit EXR frames for professional editing, color grading, and compositing pipelines.
SDR to Generative HDR
Upgrade generated or recorded standard videos into vivid and accurate HDR footage.
"Man with a gold fish in a fishbowl for a head riding a shark like a motorcycle through a neon lit neo Tokyo alley at night."
"Astronaut with flash light drifting through a destroyed dark space station zero gravity."
"Skeleton zombie pirates walking through the thing jungle at night holding oil lanterns."
"Man welding the cockpit of a spaceship open in the desert at night."
SOTA Fidelity
Ray3 brings state of the art realism, physics, character consistency, and far superior instruction following. Ray3 also packs significantly more detail in the same resolution compared with Ray2 producing crisp high-fidelity outputs.

Draft Mode
Introducing a new way to iterate. Fast. Draft Mode enables you to explore ideas in a state of flow and get to that perfect shot for your story. Then, with Ray3's new Hi-Fi Diffusion "master" your best shots into production-ready high-fidelity 4K HDR footage. Video creation is fun again!
5x Faster
See ideas come to life in seconds. It’s like sketching videos.
5x Cheaper
Use your credits 5x more efficiently in Draft Mode and then Hi-Fi only the very best shots.
Designed to Tell Stories
Wasted
After a motorcyclist scratches the wrong car he is thrust into a white-knuckle, high-octane chase as an unhinged driver turns petty revenge into a city-wide war on wheels.

Subway
The story begins in a subway and unfolds into a fantastic, musical journey where giant creatures, playful ideas, and impossible wonders collide. To capture this variety, we invited ten artists to contribute their wildest concepts, then shaped a unifying look that allowed all those visions to coexist. Edited together, the result is a cinematic piece as expansive, unpredictable, and alive as Ray3 itself.

Homesick
coming soon
In an apocalyptic near-future California, a lone vagabond must traverse threats across a dangerous urban hellscape once known as Los Angeles.
The Double Double
coming soon
The Double Double is a wild, absurdist comedy where diner booths double as cosmic battlegrounds. Four mismatched friends—stand-ins for an unstable star system—can’t drift farther than sixty “waffle units” apart without triggering galactic collapse. When egos clash and someone crosses the line, syrup-drenched meteors, cosmic dogs, and the laws of gravity itself unravel in spectacular chaos.

"Two people in the eye of a tornado, one is being sucked up in the tornado, the other one tries to catch them but their hands let loose, cinematic."
"A girl rides a massive, majestic fish through the ocean's depths. Sunlight illuminates shimmering scales as they glide through the deep blue. A magical scene of freedom and wonder."
"A woman rides a bear running rapidly through a forest in a mountainous area, wide shot, motion blur."
"A super slow mo macro anamorphic bokeh of a water bender silhouetted child with beautiful eyes illuminated with highlights and blue floating water in the background and foreground backlit in slow motion."
"A massive iceberg dramatically collapses into the ocean. Jagged, blue shards tumble in slow motion, scattering frozen debris. Shimmering light reflects off sharp edges amidst mist and icy spray. "
"Golden hour illuminates a small bird perched on a resting rhino's horn in a hyper-realistic, cinematic close-up. The camera intimately captures the rhino's weathered skin and the bird's delicate movements in a symbiotic act. A blurred savanna and soft breeze complete the scene."
"In a quiet, natural setting, a translucent celestial being interacts gently with a solitary human. The being shimmers with starlight, galaxies swirling within its semi-transparent form. The human, in awe, stands still as the being extends light, creating ripples of starlight. A cosmic hum underscores this intimate, reverent connection between the infinite and the mortal."
"A close-up video of a sorrowful woman in a mystical forest. She slowly lifts her head upward, tears streaming down her cheeks. The tears glisten with green glitter shimmer, sparkling faintly as they catch the light. She wears an ancient helmet made of bark, moss, and vines, blending her with the forest itself."

"A hyper-realistic, slow-motion microscopic close-up reveals a translucent cell deep within a cellular environment. Glowing with a cool bluish hue, the cell gracefully undergoes mitosis, dividing into two identical daughter cells. "
"Light reflects in the helmet as the rocket takes off with camera shake."
"A whimsical close up of a wide-eyed creature, hyper detailed fur, cinematic shallow focus, warm backlight, expressive and magical atmosphere."
