In 2024, AI video was a gimmick. In 2025, it became a career killer (and a career creator). We are no longer making GIFs ; we are generating high-fidelity B-Roll, commercial shots, and entire short films. At **MangoMind**, the premier **AI platform in Bangladesh**, user demand for video generation overtook text for the first time in Q4 2025. Here is the definitive report on the state of AI Video. ## 🏆 The Categories ### 1. The Best Quality (The Hollywood Studio ) **Winner: Wan 2.1 (The Fantasy Weaver)** While Sora 2 is technically impressive, **Wan 2.1** has a soul. Its understanding of biological movement and fluid dynamics (water, smoke, wind) is unmatched. It doesn't just move pixels; it simulates physics. * **Best For:** Music videos, fantasy films, nature documentaries. * **The Vibe:** Dreamlike and cinematic. ### 2. The Cheapest & Fastest (The TikTok Engine ) **Winner: LTX Fast** Time is money. **LTX Fast** generates 5-second clips in under 2 seconds. It is the only model that feels real-time. * **Why it wins:** It costs pennies per generation. For content creators needing daily volume, LTX is the only economic choice. * **Availability:** Included in MangoMind's **student affordable ai** tier. ### 3. The Most Uncensored (The Director's Cut ) **Winner: LTX Fast (Uncensored Mode)** While **Grok Video** promises freedom, it is still heavily guardrailed ( Spicy but safer for work). **LTX Fast**, however, is the true wild west. It has virtually no filters on artistic nudity or violence, making it the favorite for horror directors and avant-garde artists. * **Warning:** It will generate exactly what you prompt, for better or worse. ### 4. The Most Popular / Most Sold **Winner: Sora 2** OpenAI's brand power is undeniable. **Sora 2** is the default premium choice for enterprise marketing teams. It's safe, reliable, and incredibly consistent. It's the iPhone of Video AI —it just works. --- ## 🥭 MangoMind's Choice: The Editor's Weapon **Winner: LTX Fast** We have to give it to **LTX Fast**. In 2025, speed matters. The ability to iterate 10 times in a minute beats waiting 5 minutes for one perfect shot. LTX allows for a workflow of *Generate > Reject > Generate > Keep*, which mirrors the actual creative process. Plus, it's the only model that feels truly open. ### The Coherence vs. Creativity Spectrum ```mermaid quadrantChart title Video AI Landscape 2025 x-axis Rigid/Safe --> Chaotic/Creative y-axis Slow/Expensive --> Fast/Cheap quadrant-1 The Wild West quadrant-2 The Dream Engine quadrant-3 Corporate Safe quadrant-4 The Standard Grok Video : [0.8, 0.4] Sora 2 : [0.3, 0.2] Wan 2.1 : [0.7, 0.3] LTX Fast : [0.9, 0.9] Runway Gen-4 : [0.4, 0.5] Veo 3.1 : [0.2, 0.4] ``` ## 📊 Global Leaderboard Scoring (2025) The numbers don't lie.
