Capabilities
Video Generation
Ray3.2 is Luma's current video generation model, built for production pipelines and trusted by the studios, agencies, and platforms shipping cinema. It turns creative intent into scalable video workflows with richer control, continuity, and cinematic direction. Previously released versions of Ray3 include Ray3, Ray3 Modify, and Ray3.14.
- Text-to-video and image-to-video generation
- Modify Video V2 for transforming existing footage, up to 20 seconds at 1080p
- Multi-Keyframe direction with up to 16 keyframes per clip
- Reframe for any aspect ratio, with Motion Transfer and Expressive Facial Performance preserved
- Draft Mode for rapid, low-credit exploration
- Native HDR generation in 16-bit color, plus EXR export at ACES2065-1 for grading and VFX
- Unlike linear generation tools or prompt-in, video-out models, Luma is the only AI video platform that reasons before it renders and is able to coordinate the full production workflow end-to-end.

Image Generation
Uni-1 is Luma's multimodal reasoning model that generates pixels. Built on Unified Intelligence, it understands intention, responds to direction, and thinks with you, rather than generating from a prompt alone.
- Multimodal reasoning that thinks before it generates
- Text-to-image generation, with reference-guided and source-grounded controls
- Intelligent: common-sense scene completion, spatial reasoning, and plausibility-driven transformation
- Directable: reference-guided generation from multiple input images
- Cultured: culture-aware generation across aesthetics, memes, and manga
- Ranks first in human preference Elo for Overall, Style & Editing, and Reference-Based Generation
- Also available via the Uni-1.1 API
