    A French national university uses AICU API for its hackathon: Arts et Métiers IAckaton

    Students of Arts et Métiers (Angers, France) build startups in five days at the IAckaton, from 5 to 9 November 2026, with AICU API. Each participant receives sponsored credits and a personal hackathon key on member.aicu.ai after accepting the terms — text, image, speech and video behind one key, with no payment card. Schools and universities can run the same programme for their groups: a way to teach development in the age of AI.

  3. Model

    Made with Wan 3.0: the music video “Moratorium in Synthetic Real”

    AICU made the music video “Moratorium in Synthetic Real” (Saki Noire & AiCuty) with Alibaba’s Wan 3.0 on POST /v1/video/generate, and a Japanese version with improved prompts. Wan 3.0 makes video with sound, 2 to 10 seconds at 480p to 1080p, and a character reference image keeps the face consistent.

    Qwen-Image 3.0 is available: posters and titles with clean Japanese, English and Chinese lettering

    Alibaba’s qwen-image-3.0 and qwen-image-3.0-pro are on POST /v1/images/generations. Their strength is lettering: put the words in quotes and say where they go, in which style and on what surface, and they come out as written — a poster with “芸術の秋” brushed across the centre took about 6 seconds. Sizes are 1024x1024, 1536x1024 and 1024x1536. qwen-image-3.0 is 1,000 AP an image; qwen-image-3.0-pro is 1,300 AP square and 2,350 AP wide or tall. They make images from text only: a request with a reference image or a mask is refused with 400 and not charged (use gpt-image-2.5 for references). Prices are in GET /v1/models.
