Ai Talking Photos API — Quick start

Grab a WaveSpeedAI API key, then call POST https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos with your input as JSON. The endpoint returns a prediction id; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to completed, then read the output URL from data.outputs[0]. Examples for Ai Talking Photos below.

HTTP example

# Submit the prediction
curl -X POST "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
    "duration": 5,
    "seed": -1
}'

# Response includes a prediction id. Poll for the result:
curl -X GET "https://api.wavespeed.ai/api/v3/predictions/{request_id}/result" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WAVESPEED_API_KEY"

# When status is "completed", read the output from data.outputs[0].

Node.js example

// npm install wavespeed
const WaveSpeed = require('wavespeed');

const client = new WaveSpeed(); // reads WAVESPEED_API_KEY from env

const result = await client.run("wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos", {
        "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
        "duration": 5,
        "seed": -1
});

console.log(result.outputs[0]); // → URL of the generated output

Python example

# pip install wavespeed
import wavespeed

output = wavespeed.run(
    "wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos",
    {
    "image": "https://example.com/your-input.jpg",
    "duration": 5,
    "seed": -1
}
)

print(output["outputs"][0])  # → URL of the generated output

Ai Talking Photos API — Frequently asked questions

What is the Ai Talking Photos API?

Ai Talking Photos is a WaveSpeedAI model for video generation from images, exposed as a REST API on WaveSpeedAI. AI Talking Photos brings your photos to life — upload a portrait and text, and watch the person speak. Supports 5-15 seconds duration. Ready-to-use REST inference API, no coldstarts, affordable pricing. You can call it programmatically or try it from the playground above.

How do I call the Ai Talking Photos API?

POST your input parameters to the model's REST endpoint (shown in the API tab of this playground) with your WaveSpeedAI API key in the Authorization header. Submission returns a prediction ID; poll the prediction endpoint until status flips to "completed", then read the output URL from the result. The playground generates a ready-to-paste code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for whatever inputs you've set. Full request/response shape is documented at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos.

How much does Ai Talking Photos cost per run?

Ai Talking Photos starts at $0.30 per run. That figure is the base price — the final charge scales with the parameters you set in the form (output size, length, count, references, or whatever knobs this model exposes), so a higher-quality or larger output costs more than a minimal one. The exact cost for your current input is shown live next to the Generate button before you submit, and the actual per-call charge is recorded on the prediction afterwards.

What inputs does Ai Talking Photos accept?

Key inputs: `image`, `duration`, `seed`, `text`. The full JSON schema (types, defaults, allowed values) is rendered above the Generate button and mirrored in the API reference at https://wavespeed.ai/docs/docs-api/wavespeed-ai/ai-talking-photos.

How do I get started with the Ai Talking Photos API?

Sign up for a free WaveSpeedAI account to claim starter credits, copy your API key from /accesskey, then call the endpoint shown in the API tab of the playground. The playground also auto-generates a code sample in Python, JavaScript, or cURL for the parameters you've set.

Can I use Ai Talking Photos outputs commercially?

Commercial usage rights depend on the model's license, set by its provider (WaveSpeedAI). The license summary appears on the model card above; see WaveSpeedAI's Terms of Service for platform-level conditions.
