AI character swap video
Creators want themselves or their character inside a video that already went viral, keeping everything that made it work: the place, the people around, the camera and the sound.
- Put yourself, from your photo, or your AI influencer in a video that already went viral.
- Recast a group clip: swap up to 3 people, each with a different character, and leave everyone else as they are.
- Test one viral format with several characters to see which one your audience likes best.
- Replace the person in your own clip with a recurring character for a faceless account.
- Works with a TikTok, Instagram Reel, YouTube Short or X link, or a clip you upload (up to 100 MB).
- Finds the people in the piece you choose: tap who to replace, and anyone you do not tap stays as they were.
- Redraws the whole person in every frame (face, hair, body and clothes) and keeps the place, the camera movement and the original sound.
- Every swapped piece is checked: one where the original person comes back is redone, and a video that cannot be made returns its credits.
- Create your AI influencer: A ready-made character, one you design or one made from your photo, for every video.
- Copy any viral dance: Your character performs the moves of a real clip, with its music, in the place you choose.
- Clone a viral video with AI: Turn the structure of a viral TikTok into an original video with new scenes, voice and subtitles.
- TikTok: About AI-generated content: TikTok asks creators to label AI-generated content that contains realistic images, audio or video. Turn on the AI-generated label when you post an AI influencer video.
- YouTube Help: Disclosing use of GenAI content: YouTube requires creators to disclose when they use AI to meaningfully alter or generate photorealistic content, such as a realistic person who does not exist.
- Instagram Help: Labeling AI content: Instagram requires a label on photorealistic video or realistic audio that was digitally generated or altered, including with AI, and offers the label when you share a reel.
- 0:00–0:04 — Same gestures, new face: The character sings and gestures at the club door with the hand moves and the timing of the original singer, among the same people.
- 0:04–0:07 — Everyone else is the original: The fan filming with his phone in front, the people behind and the red lights are the original clip: only the singer was swapped.
- 0:07–0:10 — The sound never changes: The original song and the noise of the crowd play from start to finish, and his mouth moves with them.

FAQ
How do I replace a person in a video with AI?
Open the AI Influencer studio, paste the link of the video (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts or X) or upload it, and pick the piece. The studio shows the people it finds: tap the one to replace, pick their character and create the video with «Same video». The place, the camera, the other people and the sound stay as they were.
Can I swap more than one person?
Yes, up to 3 per video, each with their own character. The price counts every person swapped, and the studio shows it before you create.
What kind of video works best?
Clips where the person you swap stays in view and near the middle of the frame, like a dance in a line, a freestyle or a selfie video. Montages of one- or two-second close-ups and people who leave the frame and come back among others are the hardest, because the person can come back as the original. Pick the piece where your person is seen best.
Is a character swap the same as a face swap?
No. A face swap pastes a face onto someone. A character swap redraws the whole person in every frame (face, hair, body and clothes), so a character with a giant wig, a fox head or a tweed suit keeps them while copying the original movements.
Does the video keep its original sound?
Yes. «Original sound» is on by default, so the song, the voices and the crowd of the clip stay, and the swapped person moves their mouth with them. You can turn it off.
Standard or Full HD?
«Same video» comes in Standard (720p) and Full HD (1080p), which shows the face, the skin and the clothes sharper. Per person swapped it costs 5 credits up to 10 seconds, 8 up to 15 and 12 up to 30 in Standard, and 6, 9 or 14 in Full HD.
Can I swap in a real person?
Only yourself or someone who gave you permission: when you create a character from a photo, you confirm it is you or that you have the permission of the person in it. Do not use it to make someone appear to do something they did not do, and label the video as AI when you post it.
