Bijutsu or Wan Animate: the short answer
Bijutsu is a Wan Animate alternative that runs in your browser. Wan 2.2 Animate is an open model: you download it, preprocess the video and run it on your own GPU.

Pick Wan 2.2 Animate if you run your own GPU and want to change the model. Pick Bijutsu if you want the remake in a browser in minutes with a price you see first.

Bijutsu vs Wan Animate, side by side
Every Wan Animate cell is quoted or copied from Wan Animate's own pages, linked below. "Not published" means those pages do not say it.
| What you compare | Bijutsu | Wan Animate |
|---|---|---|
| What it does | Motion transfer and character swap: your people take over a video, or one thing in it changes | Animation mode ("animate any character based on a performer's video") and replacement mode ("replace characters in a video with animated characters") |
| The video you add | 4 to 30 seconds (a longer video uses its first 30); files up to 60 MB | A performer video that is preprocessed before the model runs; length limit not published |
| Photos and references | Up to 30 photos of people, products, outfits or places, plus an optional note | One character image ("Wan-Animate takes a video and a character image as input") |
| Output size | 720p | Preprocessing works at a 1280 x 720 area; output limit not published |
| Sound | The sound of your clip is put back on the new video; if the video model rejects the music, your credits come back | Not published on its own pages |
| Price | 20 credits a second, rounded up, shown on the Generate button before you press; no subscription | Open model under the Apache 2.0 License; you run it on your own GPU, so no price is published |
| Swap one thing, keep the rest | Yes: Swap a thing changes only what your note names | Replaces a character; swapping one object is not described |
| Where you use it | In the browser on Reviral, next to your ads, images and voiceovers | Code on GitHub, demos on Hugging Face and ModelScope; the project page says it is "intended solely for academic research and effect demonstration" |

Honest take
Where Wan Animate wins
Wan 2.2 Animate is open: the weights and code are public under the Apache 2.0 License, so a team with its own GPU can run it, change it and pay nothing per video.
Honest take
Where Bijutsu wins
Bijutsu needs no GPU, no download and no preprocessing: upload the video, add photos, press Generate and see the price first. It takes up to 30 photos, swaps single objects, and puts your clip's sound back on the new video.
