TBC Launches Neuron-Derived Video Model 5x Faster Than Base

San Francisco – October 30, 2026 -- The Biological Computing Co. (TBC) launched mischief 1, an image-to-video AI model that generates video 5x faster than its base model, on the fal and OpenRouter marketplaces. TBC says it is the lowest-priced image-to-video model on both platforms.

The model is priced at half a cent per second of video. A five-second clip costs 2.5 cents, and 100 clips cost $2.50.

TBC builds mischief 1 on Wan 2.2 and says quality matches the base model

Mischief 1 is built on Wan 2.2, a widely used open-weight video model. TBC says it matches the base model's quality while cutting generation time fivefold and cost to a fraction of the original.

TBC, AWS Launch Neuron-Derived AI Video Model, Cut Costs 80%

San Francisco – September 22, 2026 -- The Biological Computing Co. (TBC) has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring what it calls the world's first neuron-derived AI video model to market, cutting inference costs by 80% and speeding generation by 5x compared to the base open-source model.

TBC's software layer runs on standard AI infrastructure without new hardware

The optimization is delivered through a proprietary software layer derived from measurements of living neural activity. The layer adds less than 0.1% to the underlying model's footprint, requires no biological hardware, and demands no change to existing customer workflows, according to TBC.
