Pruna AI P Video 2 Pro Avatar API Documentation
Playground
Try it on WaveSpeedAI!Pruna P-Video-2-Pro Avatar creates talking-avatar videos from a portrait image and uploaded speech audio, making it suitable for digital humans, presenters, dubbing, and avatar video workflows. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.
Features
P-Video-2 Pro Avatar creates a talking-avatar video from a portrait image and a speech audio recording. The portrait defines the character and visual appearance, while the supplied audio drives the speaking performance and determines the video duration.
Use an optional prompt to guide expression, movement, or framing, and choose between 480p and 768p output for avatar presentations, explainers, social content, and other speech-driven video workflows.
Why Choose This?
-
Image-and-audio avatar generation
Turn a portrait image and recorded speech into a talking video. -
Audio-driven performance
The input audio controls the speaking performance and output duration. -
Up to 3 minutes of speech
Generate avatar videos from audio clips up to180seconds. -
Prompt-guided movement
Describe desired expressions, gestures, movement, or framing through an optional prompt. -
480p and 768p output
Choose the resolution that fits your quality and cost requirements. -
Seed control
Use an optional seed when reproducibility is useful.
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| image | Yes | Portrait image URL used to define the avatar’s appearance. |
| audio | Yes | Speech audio URL used to drive the talking performance. Maximum processed duration: 180 seconds. |
| prompt | No | Optional guidance for movement, expression, gestures, or framing. Default: The person is talking. |
| resolution | No | Output resolution: 480p or 768p. Default: 768p. |
| prompt_upsampling | No | Automatically enhance the performance prompt. Default: false. |
| seed | No | Optional random seed for generation. |
How to Use
- Upload a portrait — Provide a clear image with the person’s face visible.
- Upload speech audio — Supply a clean speech recording.
- Add performance guidance optional — Use
promptto describe expressions, gestures, movement, or framing. - Choose resolution — Select
480por768p. - Set seed optional — Use a fixed seed when reproducibility is needed.
- Submit — Generate and retrieve the talking-avatar video.
Pricing
Pricing is based on the input audio duration and selected resolution.
Audio duration is rounded up to the next whole second, with a minimum of 1 billed second and a maximum of 180.
| Resolution | Per Billed Second | 10s | 60s | 180s |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 480p | $0.02 | $0.20 | $1.20 | $3.60 |
| 768p | $0.04 | $0.40 | $2.40 | $7.20 |
prompt, prompt_upsampling, and seed do not add separate charges.
Best Use Cases
- Virtual presenters — Create avatar-led introductions, announcements, and presentations.
- Product explainers — Turn recorded narration into a character-led product presentation.
- Educational content — Generate presenter-style videos for lessons, training, and instructional material.
- Social media content — Create talking-character videos from existing portraits and speech.
- Digital characters — Animate character portraits with recorded dialogue.
- Localized presentations — Reuse the same portrait with different speech recordings for multiple versions.
Pro Tips
- Use a clear, well-lit portrait with the face fully visible.
- Use clean speech audio without loud background music or overlapping speakers.
- Keep movement instructions simple and consistent with the source portrait.
- Describe natural expressions and gestures when you want more than a basic talking performance.
- Use
480pfor lower-cost testing before moving to768p. - Start with shorter audio clips when testing a new portrait or prompt.
- Use a fixed
seedwhen comparing prompt changes.
Notes
imageandaudioare required.- Use an audio clip from
1to180seconds, up to 64 MiB. - Portraits support JPG, JPEG, PNG, and WebP, up to 20 MiB.
prompt_upsamplingis off by default.- Output video duration follows the processed input audio.
- Billing duration is rounded up to the next whole second.
- The minimum billed duration is
1second and the maximum is180seconds. resolutiondefaults to768p.promptis optional and defaults toThe person is talking.- Public URLs must remain accessible while the request is processing.
