TurboDiffusion is a Python framework that accelerates end-to-end video diffusion model generation by 100-200x using SageAttention, Sparse-Linear Attention, and rCM timestep distillation. It ships accelerated TurboWan checkpoints for text-to-video and image-to-video generation on consumer GPUs like the RTX 5090.

Use cases

• generate videos from text prompts much faster
• speed up video diffusion model inference
• run video generation on a single consumer GPU
• accelerate Wan video models with distilled checkpoints
• reduce diffusion sampling steps for video generation
• generate 480p or 720p videos in seconds instead of minutes

When to choose

• you need fast video generation with minimal quality loss on limited GPU hardware
• you want to use Wan 2.1/2.2 video models with dramatically reduced inference time
• you are doing research or building apps around accelerated video diffusion

When to avoid

• you need video models other than the provided TurboWan checkpoints
• you require maximum video quality over generation speed
• you work with non-English prompts without prompt augmentation
• you need a finalized, production-hardened release (checkpoints and paper are still being updated)
