Video Model Swap API

Swap Model in Video — workflow

Another person in the same video: send the clip and a photo of the new model, get the clip back with that person wearing the outfit, same movement and setting.

POST/v1/generateworkflow: swap_video_model-v1

One endpoint serves every workflow — this page documents swap_video_model-v1, the current version. Credits are debited at submission (2.8 cr/s standard, 3.7 cr/s pro); a failed generation is refunded automatically. Earlier versions of this endpoint, if any, keep being served under their own names. This workflow needs an active plan.

Example response

Poll /v1/generations/{id} (or receive the webhook) until the generation settles:

// 200 OK

  "status": "succeeded",
  "result": {

}

Results are stored for 48 hours — copy them to your own storage. Authentication, errors and webhooks are documented in the full API reference.

Frequently asked questions

What are the two inputs?

The video first, then a photo of the new model — front on, face visible. The face, hair and skin become the new model's; everything else stays.

How is it billed?

By the second of the video you send, standard or pro. The length is read from the file before the job starts.

How much does it cost?

2.8 credits per second on the standard tier, 3.7 per second on pro. Credits come with plans and packs; a failed generation is always refunded.
