Why it matters

Vercel's AI Gateway now abstracts video generation across multiple providers (Grok, Wan, Kling, Veo) into a single API. This is a significant product shift: developers can now programmatically generate video content (text-to-video, image-to-video, reference-to-video, style transfer) at scale without licensing or production overhead. It democratizes video creation for app developers and content platforms.
