EDITORIALLY VERIFIED PRODUCT INFORMATION
About AlayaVista
A camera-controllable streaming video world model that grows a 360° scene prior from a single perspective image. AlayaVista builds a 360° scene prior from one view, evolves camera-conditioned panoramic latent states, then synthesises the requested perspective through latent viewport rendering and local refinement. Chunk-autoregressive generation with few-step distillation concentrates high-fidelity synthesis on the viewport you choose.
Key features
The panoramic-state design keeps whole-scene context while rendering only the selected view. A technical report and project page document the method ahead of code.
Getting started
Read the project page and technical report while awaiting the roadmap's inference-code and checkpoint releases; there is nothing to install yet.
Real-time interaction

Pricing
No released code, weights or licence yet; nothing to self-host Repository code is published under No licence declared yet. Confirm separate model, dataset and dependency terms before reuse. No hosted price is inferred. Budget for the documented GPU, storage and setup requirements.
Limitations
Inference code and pretrained weights are listed on the release roadmap but were not published at the time of this check. No licence has been declared in the repository, so reuse terms are currently undefined.
EDITORIAL VIEW
Editor's Verdict
AlayaVista is included as a source-available implementation relevant to real-time generative video or interactive world systems.
Run the supplied example on representative hardware and review every linked licence before production use.

Technical notes & official performance
Official Performance Data
- The README describes efficient streaming via chunk-autoregressive generation and few-step distillation but publishes no FPS or latency figure. Video Runtime has not measured anything.
Technical Notes
- The paper is on arXiv (2609.14462); the repository currently ships the project page, paper link and roadmap.
