About this tool
What is AI Talking Photo?
AI Talking Photo turns a single portrait into a short video that speaks. Upload a photo, type what it should say (or add your own audio), and the face gets matching mouth movement and small expressions.
It’s handy when you have a picture but no footage — a birthday greeting, a quick explainer, a spokesperson for a product shot, or a face to go with a voiceover you already recorded. One photo is enough.
Choose an available AI voice for your script, record your voice, or upload an audio track. Processing time depends on the selected model and input.
Features
Everything you need, nothing you don’t.
Mouth movement and expressions
The lips match the words, with small facial motion so it doesn’t look frozen.
Type it or record it
Add text and pick a voice, or upload audio you already have.
Choose a voice
Pick an available AI voice or upload your own voice track.
HD download
Export in HD, sized for social or a slide.
Model-dependent processing
Processing time depends on duration, model, and provider load.
Works best with clear portraits
A front-facing face with good lighting gives the cleanest result.
Private signed download
Access your result through a private, signed download.
30-day media retention
Uploads and generated media expire after 30 days. Delete library results earlier whenever you choose.

What is a talking photo?
It’s a still photo turned into a short video where the person appears to speak the words you add. The tool maps the face and generates mouth movement and light expressions in time with the audio.
How long does it take?
Most talking photos are ready in two to three minutes. Longer text (up to 500 characters) can take a little longer.

JPG, PNG, and WEBP up to 10MB. For the best result, use a clear, front-facing photo with good lighting and one face.
Can I use a photo of someone else?
Only with their permission. Don’t use it to impersonate anyone or mislead viewers. See the Terms for the full rules.
How many credits does it cost?
The server calculates the estimated whole-job cost from the selected certified model, verified audio duration, resolution, and current provider rate before generation.
Can I make a photo sing, or animate a video instead?
Yes — to make a photo sing along to a song, use AI Singing Photo. To sync new audio to an existing video, use AI Lip Sync.
