## Frequently asked questions

### Why keep Wan 2.5 when newer versions exist?

A named checkpoint can have a useful visual character and a separate fixed price; it is never silently replaced by another Wan model.

### Does this route edit images?

No. This page intentionally exposes the verified text-to-image contract only.
