Genmo

Genmo is a San Francisco research lab building open-source video generation models. Its flagship release, Mochi 1, is an Apache-2.0 licensed 10B-parameter text-to-video diffusion model (AsymmDiT architecture) with strong prompt adherence and high-fidelity motion. Genmo does NOT publish a first-party hosted developer REST API. Programmatic access to Mochi comes in three honest forms: (1) the open-source model itself, self-hosted via the repo's Python pipeline ("simple composable API"), CLI, Gradio UI, or ComfyUI; (2) third-party hosted inference APIs from partners such as Replicate and fal.ai; and (3) a credit-based consumer web app and Playground at genmo.ai/play. The endpoints documented here for hosted access are modeled from partner documentation and are not operated by Genmo.

Genmo publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Video Generation, AI Video, Generative AI, Text-to-Video, and Open Source.

Genmo’s developer surface includes documentation, engineering blog, and 5 more developer resources.

  description: Third-party hosted access to Genmo's Mochi 1 via Replicate's predictions API (model identifier genmoai/mochi-1).
    Runs on Nvidia H100 hardware, ~$0.42 per run, typically completing within 5 minutes at 480p. Invoked through Replicate's
    standard async prediction pattern - POST a prediction with the model version and inputs, poll or receive a webhook, then
    fetch the output video URL. This API is operated by Replicate, not Genmo; endpoints are modeled from Replicate's platform
    documentation.

  description: The first-party access surface is the open-source model itself. The Mochi repo (Apache-2.0) ships a "simple
    composable API" in Python - MochiSingleGPUPipeline built from T5ModelFactory, DitModelFactory, and DecoderModelFactory
    - invoked with prompt, resolution, num_frames, inference steps, guidance scale, and seed to generate 480p video locally.
    It also provides a cli.py, a Gradio UI (gradio_ui.py), and native ComfyUI support. This is a code library / local inference
    pipeline, not a hosted network API; weights (~60GB VRAM) are downloaded from Hugging Face. There is no Genmo REST endpoint
    - self-host it or use a partner (see the Replicate and fal.ai entries).
