Two documented off-switches, held by different people
Two entries here publish a switch for the visible mark. One is a boolean in the API request, held by whoever writes the call; the other is a toggle beside the model selector that only paid members have. From 2 source pages, read 2026-10-13 to 2026-10-25; no maker pays to be listed.
| On this question | Wan | SceneMixer |
|---|---|---|
| Where the control lives | In the request body | Beside the model selector |
| Who exercises it | An integrator writing the call | A paid member producing the work |
| Documented default | False, so nothing is applied | On, so the badge is applied |
| Stated reason | None published | Named rules for a two-layer mark |
| What stays on regardless | Nothing documented | An invisible watermark, per the terms |
Inclusion rule. One row per question on which these two entries can be compared from their own published pages. Questions neither vendor addresses are left out rather than filled with a dash. Order. Fixed order: the mechanism first, then who holds it, then what it leaves behind.
| Generator | User toggle | Document read |
|---|---|---|
| SceneMixer | Plan benefit, a switch for paid members | terms of service |
| Wan | A request parameter, not a plan | text-to-video API reference |
Inclusion rule. The two entries on this page, with the value each one's own pages support in the column they diverge on. Order. Alphabetical by generator name.
1Who holds the switch
On one entry the switch is a field in a request, so it is held by whoever writes the integration and is set once in code. On the other it is a toggle in the product, held by a paid member and set render by render while the work is being made.
Neither is held by the person who receives the file, which is the part a downstream platform should notice: the decision is taken upstream, by different people on each side.
2Defaults that point opposite ways
The request field defaults to false, so a caller who does nothing gets no mark. The toggle defaults to on, so an operator who does nothing ships a badge, and a free account cannot change it.
A file from the first arrives clean unless someone asked for a mark; a file from the second arrives badged unless a member took it off. Which of those a production is receiving is a question to settle before footage is collected.
3What neither switch touches
The integrator's field governs the only mark that entry documents. The paid member's toggle governs the visible badge only: the terms say an invisible, compression-resistant watermark or content credential stays on every output, which is the layer a platform's software would look for.

Both values above are read from the vendor pages linked in the rows: alibabacloud.com and scenemixer.com, on 2026-10-25. Each entry has its own page, Wan and SceneMixer, and the rule for the column they diverge on is on the control column page. Other pairs: buying later, or not, the first payment.
