Wan2GP is an open-source platform engineered to democratize artificial intelligence video generation for users with standard or older GPUs, including those with as little as 6GB of VRAM. Traditionally, running models like Wan 2.1, Hunyuan Video, or LTX Studio has required expensive, high-end hardware, sidelining many creators. Wan2GP closes this gap by providing an intuitive web interface that abstracts away technical complexity, allowing users to access cutting-edge open-source video models with minimal setup.
The tool was developed by DeepBeepMeep to serve the ´GPU Poor,´ enabling advanced artificial intelligence video tasks on hardware such as NVIDIA´s RTX 10xx and 20xx series. Its core advantages include extremely low VRAM requirements, simple web-based operation, automatic model downloading, and support for LoRA files to customize output style or content. Additional features include batch queuing, a prompt enhancer, and a mask editor, all tailored for user-friendly workflows. By handling model management and memory optimization internally, Wan2GP enables resource-intensive models to run on hardware previously considered insufficient for this purpose.
Wan2GP supports a wide array of artificial intelligence video models, notably the Wan 2.1, Hunyuan, and LTX Video series. Each family offers strengths ranging from general versatility and text prompt fidelity to generation speed suitable for rapid prototyping. The guide provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for generating both text-to-video and image-to-video content, including explanations of model selection, prompt writing, resolution and aspect ratio selection, and output management. A comprehensive FAQ clarifies critical distinctions—such as the difference between the Wan2GP interface and underlying models, hardware prerequisites, licensing considerations, and commercial use restrictions. The platform and its software are free and open source under the MIT License, though users must heed individual model licenses. For those seeking a frictionless experience, Wan2GP can be run instantly via the MimicPC cloud platform, removing the need for any installation or complex local configuration.
