AI software and the business of generative video

The AI video stack, mid-2026: eight commercial models that matter, ten open-weights alternatives that actually run, and a new layer on top — five agents that decide which model does the work. One living reference: who makes what, what it costs, what's real.

The split that decides who wins: Adobe and Runway orchestrate only their own stack; Pika, Luma and Higgsfield route across everyone's. We make the call on which bet wins — and what "the agent picks the model" does to model pricing power: https://t.co/Si4kCGommB

Five companies shipped an agent on top of their AI-video models in ten weeks — Luma, Adobe, Pika, Runway, Higgsfield. None of them generates video. Each decides which model does. When the agent picks the model, the model becomes a line item in someone else's routing table.
