Five takes, one prompt

Ask five directors for the same shot and you get five different films. Models are no different. The same paper boat drifting down a flooded street comes back five ways:

MODELITS READKEEP IT WHEN
VeoDocumentary realism, heavy weatherThe shot has to feel filmed
SeedanceA storyboard with clean cutsIt will sit in a sequence
HailuoMotion first, fog secondThe drift is the story
WanAn illustration in motionStyle is the point
OmniA balanced master takeYou plan to edit from it

That spread is information. Before compare existed, you picked a model first and judged the idea through one interpretation. Now the prompt runs across all five at once, and the takes come back side by side with one credit receipt.

PROMPTThe same prompt on Hailuo: motion first, fog second

Keep the take, branch from it

Marking a take as kept does more than flag a winner. It becomes the branch point: extend it, edit it in Omni, upscale it for delivery, or re-run its exact settings with one line of the prompt changed. The library keeps every version, so no take is ever lost to a better one.

Multi-model compare ships on every paid plan. The paper boat is on the landing page if you want to judge the five takes yourself.
