Decart's API platform (docs fetched 2026-10-23) is one of few places where a world model is a paid, documented API rather than a demo. Oasis 3 Preview (released June 2026, R3): set a scene with a text prompt, then send chunks of exactly four [throttle, steering] actions in [-1, 1] and receive four generated frames for each of three camera streams (left_forward, front, right_forward) over a stateful gRPC session; a new prompt resets the world context; Python SDK decart-oasis; a browser playable preview exists; the docs pitch it as a learned driving simulator for RL, with a PPO Colab (R1). It is driving-specific (vehicle controls, three car-mounted views), not a general walkable world. Pricing (R2): pay-as-you-go, no subscription; Oasis 3 Preview $0.02 per second (a 60 s session = $1.20); Lucy 2.5 realtime video editing (add/replace/remove objects, swap characters, change backgrounds live) $0.02/s at 720p or $0.04/s in fast mode, $0.04/s for batch video; Lucy Restyle 2 $0.01/s; image ...

Release cadence (R3): Lucy 2 (Feb 2026), 1080p realtime (May), Oasis 3 Preview (June), Lucy 2.5 (July), fast mode and older try-on model retirements (Sept), one API hostname (Oct). Terms (R4): Decart assigns Output rights to the user, commercial use permitted, outputs may not be unique. Use for creators: live-stream character/background swaps and interactive previsualisation are affordable to prototype; for walkable 3D worlds compare World Labs Marble (C3-B434-01) and open world models (C3-B399-01, C3-B460-01). Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Docs only; no API calls made. Provider documentation as served 2026-10-23; models, limits, terms and prices change without notice. Limitations: Docs only; no API calls made (no paid calls, no source execution); latency, resolution and visual quality of Oasis 3 not measured here; "Preview" status implies change; the terms excerpt is the docs copy and may differ from the version in force on the platform; training-use of user Input not checked in the terms. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
