Krea Realtime 14B

Krea · Released October 2025

A 14-billion-parameter text-to-video model that Krea distilled from Wan 2.1 14B with Self-Forcing, so it generates video frame by frame while you change the prompt. It can also restyle a live video, webcam or canvas input. The weights are Apache-2.0, but the official inference code is CC BY-NC-SA 4.0.

02 License

Can you use it commercially?

Permissive license

The weights' model card declares Apache-2.0, a permissive license that allows commercial use. The official inference code in krea-ai/realtime-video is under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0, so a commercial product needs its own inference code; the Wan 2.1 base model is Apache-2.0.

03 Speed

Does it run in real time?

Real-time, per authors. 11 fps text-to-video with 4 inference steps, and first frames within about a second, per the README and model card.

04 Setup

How to run it

  1. 01Install the inference code with uv sync, then an attention backend (FlashAttention, or the SageAttention wheel bundled in the repository) and FFmpeg.
  2. 02Download the Wan2.1-T2V-1.3B base files and krea-realtime-video-14b.safetensors from Hugging Face.
  3. 03Start release_server.py to stream frames live over a WebSocket, or run sample.py for offline clips.
