Talking photo

Talking photo: make a portrait say your words

Upload a portrait to @aiall_bot, type what it should say, and get a short video: the text is turned into speech and the face moves its lips in sync with the voice.

A front-facing, evenly lit portrait like this one gives the best lip-sync.

Examples

Head-and-shoulders framing also works well: the mouth is clearly visible.

Every person in these examples is AI-generated: no real customer photos are shown.

How the video is made

Two steps run one after another. First your text becomes speech, with a female or a male voice. Then a lip-sync model animates the portrait to that audio, so the mouth, jaw and small head movements follow the words. English, Russian and Persian were tested; other languages may work too.

It is used for greetings, a short announcement from an avatar, a fun message from a pet, or to give a voice to a restored family photo.

Before you start

Use a clear, front-facing face; profiles and covered mouths do not animate well.
The text can be up to 200 characters, about 20 seconds of speech.
Only use photos of people who agree to it, and never to put words in a real person's mouth to mislead.
The video takes a few minutes; it arrives in the chat when ready.

How it works

Open @aiall_bot and tap the button to open the app.
Choose "Talking photo", upload a portrait and type the text.
Get the video with sound in the chat a few minutes later.

Price

The price depends on the text length: 47 credits for up to 40 characters and up to 167 credits for 200. The bot charges for the longest possible speech and returns the credits for unused seconds once the audio is ready.

This tool is not part of the free first edit, which covers photo edits.

The bot shows the price before anything is charged, and if a run fails the credits go back to your balance.

Credits come in packs: 150 credits for 50 Telegram Stars, with more credits per Star in bigger packs; card and crypto payments work too. Your first purchase gets +50% credits.
