Released in June 2026, it is the current incumbent of the HappyHorse image-to-video line, stepping in directly above HappyHorse 1.0 (April 2026) with refinements to the same generation pipeline.
The 1.1 update arrived as a coordinated family refresh alongside its HappyHorse 1.1 text-to-video and HappyHorse 1.1 Reference counterparts, giving users a consistent toolkit across prompt-driven, reference-driven, and image-driven workflows. It sits within Alibaba's broader generative media catalogue, which also spans the Wan video family and the Qwen Image line — making HappyHorse the more recent, purpose-built option for animating existing visuals.
This image-to-video variant is best suited when you already have a source image — a photo, render, or artwork — and want to bring it to life with natural movement. For creators working from text prompts or reference clips instead, the sibling 1.1 models cover those entry points within the same lineup.

"Best price" and the seller table are live Antseed catalog data (advertised $/1M tokens — or $ per generated image for unit-billed image models — not settled amounts). Reputation = buyer trust score (0-100, the Antseed SDK's own formula). "Routing" = the SDK's default buyer routing (what the VPR desktop app ships with): a trust ≥ 60 gate on the effective reputation, then cheapest-first among routable sellers; live failover state (per-peer cooldowns) is buyer-side runtime and not included. Model knowledge (TLDR, provider, About) via the VeniceStats enrichment layer. Advertised catalog, not the model used in any specific purchase. "Usage on Antseed" counts only settlements whose buyers share the per-model split on-chain (metadata v2/v3, opt-in), so every usage figure is a lower bound.
