Change log

  • — Pika 2.5 confirmed as the current model — Pika's own developer docs list pika/pika-2.5/text-to-video and image-to-video with published pricing ($0.04/sec at 720p, $0.09/sec at 1080p, 5s text-to-video cap). Entry held at 2.2 because Pika publishes no release date for 2.5 anywhere, and this catalog does not guess release dates. Bump the title once a dated source appears.
  • — Updated from Pika 2 to Pika 2.2 (released 2025-02-27): Pikaframes, 1080p, up to 10s. (A 'Pika 2.5' is referenced on the site but unconfirmed by a dated source.)
  • — Initial entry.
