What is LTX Video 2.3 Fast?
LTX Video 2.3 Fast is an open-source video generation model (text-to-video and image-to-video) developed by Lightricks, released in March 2026. It is a speed-optimized 22-billion-parameter model that generates high-fidelity video up to 4K resolution with synchronized audio and native 9:16 portrait support in a single diffusion pass.
Use it privately on Venice
On Venice, you can generate video using LTX Video 2.3 Fast without your creative prompts being stored, profiled, or used for training. Requests are routed through Venice's anonymized privacy tier, ensuring zero retention of your prompt history. This allows you to leverage its open-source power and native audio generation with complete creative sovereignty.
What can it do?
- •Native audio generation — Generates synchronized ambient sound or voice in the same diffusion pass, avoiding post-processing alignment issues.
- •Native portrait support — Trained on vertical data (9:16) up to 1080x1920, rather than cropping landscape video.
- •High-fidelity details — Features a rebuilt VAE and a 4x larger text connector for sharper textures (hair, fabric) and tighter prompt adherence.
- •Flexible durations — Supports clips up to 20 seconds long (at 1080p, 24/25 FPS).
- •Open-weights sovereignty — Licensed under Apache 2.0, allowing commercial use and local deployment.
- •Fast variant tradeoffs — Optimized for speed, meaning it has slightly lower motion stability and visual detail compared to the LTX 2.3 Pro variant.
- •Complex physics — Still struggles with highly complex physical interactions (e.g., fluid dynamics, dense crowds) compared to larger closed-source models.
- •Duration limits at high res — Clips longer than 10 seconds are restricted to 1080p at 24/25 FPS.

The open-source leader for fast, high-res video with native audio.
What is it good for?
- •Rapid prototyping and storyboarding for video production.
- •Creating vertical social media content (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) with native 9:16 framing.
- •Generating short video clips with matching, synchronized background audio.
- •High-volume, cost-effective video generation for indie creators and developers.
Prompting tips
- •Write prompts as a single continuous paragraph in the present tense.
- •Be highly specific about camera angles, lighting, and movement (e.g., 'dolly in', 'cinematic lighting').
- •Include atmospheric and sensory details to guide the synchronized audio generation.

Frequently asked questions
LTX Video 2.3 Fast is an open-source text-to-video model developed by Lightricks, released in March 2026. It is designed for high-speed, cost-effective video generation, supporting resolutions up to 4K, native 9:16 portrait aspect ratios, and synchronized audio generation in a single diffusion pass.
On Venice, pricing is pay-per-clip and scales with resolution and duration. A 6-second clip starts at $0.40 for 1080p, $0.79 for 1440p, and $1.58 for 2160p (4K). Clip lengths can range from 6 to 20 seconds.
Yes, LTX Video 2.3 Fast is an open-source model released under the permissive Apache 2.0 license, meaning it is free to self-host, fine-tune, and use for commercial projects. On Venice, you can run it via API or the web interface using Venice credits.
Yes, LTX Video 2.3 Fast features native synchronized audio generation. Unlike models that layer audio in post-processing, it processes video and audio simultaneously in a single diffusion pass, resulting in tighter alignment between sound and motion.
LTX Video 2.3 Fast is built by Lightricks and features native 4K output, native 9:16 portrait support, and synchronized audio generation. Alibaba's Wan 2.7 is another powerful open-weights model, but it typically lacks native audio generation and focuses primarily on high-quality video motion.
Venice runs LTX Video 2.3 Fast under its anonymized privacy tier. Your prompts are forwarded to a third-party provider without storing, profiling, or using them for training, ensuring your creative concepts remain private and secure.
LTX Video 2.3 Fast natively supports both 16:9 (landscape) and 9:16 (portrait) aspect ratios. Because it was trained on native vertical data rather than cropped landscape video, it delivers superior composition for mobile-first content.
The Fast variant is optimized for speed and lower cost, making it ideal for rapid prototyping, storyboarding, and quick iteration. The Pro variant offers higher visual fidelity, better motion stability, and supports advanced features like audio-to-video and video extension.
