The VEED Fabric 1.0 API turns a static character image into a talking video. Send an image and an audio file, and receive a video where the character speaks with lifelike lip-sync - in a single API call.
Unlike avatar tools that limit you to a preset library, Fabric works with any character image you own - a brand mascot, a stylized illustration, or a user-uploaded photo.
What Does It Do?
Make any image talk - no avatar library or avatar selection required. Use any character image you own.
Lifelike lip-sync driven by your audio file
Up to 1 minute of generated video per API call
Built for high-volume, programmatic generation - not just one-off clips
Pure API access - no VEED account or editor required. Drop it directly into your product.
What Can You Build With It?
Apps that turn a user's photo and voice note into a shareable video
Animated brand mascots, characters, or product spokespeople
