Overview
Pika is an AI video-creation platform for generating and transforming short clips from prompts and source media. Creators can direct a scene, animate an image, or apply a visual transformation and iterate on the result.
The product is aimed at creators working on social, entertainment, and lightweight production tasks. The official service establishes the hosted creation workflow, while current model and credit limits remain plan-dependent.
