What it does
Akool takes in text prompts, reference images, photos, and video footage, and produces AI-generated videos, images, face swaps, talking-photo animations, and avatar videos. Its page lists tools such as Image to Video, Text to Video, Video Translator, Voice Clone, and Text to Speech, along with access to third-party video and image models including Seedance, Kling, and Wan.
People use it mainly from the web app to generate short videos, swap faces or outfits in existing footage, produce marketing images, and create talking avatars without filming. A distinguishing feature is that it bundles several model families behind one credit system, and a separate OpenAPI and MCP CLI allow developers to access documented generation operations from code or the terminal; supported operations depend on the interface.
Akool suits creators, small agencies, and businesses producing video content, with enterprise options for larger teams. Access requires an account; paid tiers are sold as monthly or yearly credit plans, and free use is limited by storage, watermarks, and slow processing. Output quality and speed depend on the selected model and plan, and generation consumes credits that vary by product.
What it can do
- Generate videos from text, images, and reference clips (Text to Video, Image to Video, Reference to Video)
- Swap faces, characters, heads, hair, and clothing in photos and videos
- Animate a single photo into a talking video (Talking Photo)
- Translate and lip-sync video into 155+ languages (Video Translation)
- Generate images from text prompts with a free image generator
- Create streaming and interactive avatars for real-time use
Example workflows
- Swap a face in an existing video
- Illustrative example. Input: a source video and a photo of the new face. Steps: upload the video to Face Swap, select the face, choose a model, and run the swap. Output: a re-rendered video with the replaced face, billed in credits per the Face Swap rate.
- Create a talking video from a photo
- Illustrative example. Input: one portrait image and a script or audio clip. Steps: open Talking Photo, upload the image, add the script or audio, and generate. Output: a short animated video of the person speaking, consuming credits according to length and resolution.
Before you choose
- Credits are consumed per generation and vary by model and output length; check the per-product credit table before budgeting.
- Free plan output carries watermarks, and processing is slower than on paid tiers.
- Workspace members added as admins or editors are billed at the owner's plan rate, so team size changes cost directly.
