AI Lip Sync Avatar — Turn One Photo and Audio into a Talking Video
A single portrait photograph and a 15-second audio clip are all you need to produce a talking head video. The AI lip sync engine analyzes your audio waveform — extracting phoneme boundaries, pitch contour, and speech rhythm — then generates synchronized mouth movements, jaw motion, and natural head sway frame by frame. Kling Avatar Standard renders at 720p, Kling Avatar Pro at 1080p, and Latiai Lip Sync offers 480p or 720p with seed control for reproducible output. This pay-per-second model means you generate only what you need — no monthly minute caps. Accepts JPG, PNG, or WebP portraits and MP3, WAV, AAC, M4A, or OGG audio — both capped at 10 MB and 15 seconds.
What Is AI Lip Sync Video Generation?
AI lip sync video generation converts a static portrait image into a talking head video driven entirely by an audio file. The process begins with audio analysis: the AI segments your recording into phoneme boundaries — the individual sounds that make up speech — and maps each phoneme to a corresponding mouth shape (viseme). It then generates frame-by-frame jaw movement, lip position, and subtle facial micro-expressions that stay synchronized with the original audio timing. The result looks like the portrait is speaking naturally.
Three models serve different production needs on this platform. Kling Avatar Standard (720p) uses Kuaishou's avatar pipeline for reliable lip sync with natural head motion. Kling Avatar Pro (1080p) produces higher-fidelity output with sharper detail, suitable for production-grade content. Latiai Lip Sync (480p or 720p) adds seed reproducibility — lock a seed value between 10,000 and 1,000,000, and the same portrait-plus-audio combination generates near-identical output every time, which is critical for iterative production workflows.
AI Lip Sync Features
Audio-driven facial animation across three models, from draft previews to production-grade output.
Multi-Model Lip Sync Pipeline
Kling Avatar Standard (720p) handles routine production. Kling Avatar Pro (1080p) delivers higher fidelity for client-facing content. Latiai Lip Sync (480p or 720p) adds seed reproducibility for iterative workflows. Select the model that matches your resolution requirement and budget.
Phoneme-Level Audio Analysis
The lip sync engine segments audio into individual phonemes, maps each to a viseme (mouth shape), and generates frame-by-frame jaw, lip, and facial movement. This audio-driven approach works with any spoken language — the AI reads sound waveforms, not text — so accent, dialect, and language do not affect sync accuracy.
480p to 1080p Resolution Range
480p (Latiai only) is ideal for rapid iteration — test multiple audio takes before committing to higher resolution. 720p suits social media and internal content. 1080p (Kling Pro only) meets broadcast and e-commerce production standards. Cost scales with resolution, so you control budget by choosing the right tier for each stage of production.
Seed-Controlled Reproducibility
Latiai Lip Sync accepts a seed value between 10,000 and 1,000,000. The same portrait, audio, and seed combination produces near-identical output every time. This is essential for iterative production — adjust the prompt or audio while keeping visual consistency, or generate batches with predictable results.
Head and Upper-Body Animation
Beyond mouth movement, the lip sync AI generates natural head tilts, nodding, shoulder sway, and subtle upper-body gestures that match speech rhythm and emphasis. Competitors like HeyGen call this 'Avatar IV' technology — our implementation produces similar natural body language across all three models.
Five Audio Format Support
Upload MP3, WAV, AAC, M4A, or OGG files up to 10 MB and 15 seconds. No format conversion required before upload. WAV and AAC produce the cleanest waveforms for phoneme extraction; compressed formats like MP3 and OGG also work but may slightly reduce sync precision at very low bitrates.
How to Create an AI Lip Sync Video
One portrait image, one audio file, one generation — talking video in minutes.
Upload a Portrait Image
Select a JPG, PNG, or WebP portrait (max 10 MB). Front-facing photos with visible mouth, jaw, and shoulders produce the most accurate lip sync. Avoid sunglasses, masks, or heavy shadows across the lower face — the AI needs clear visibility of the mouth region to map visemes correctly.
Upload Your Audio Clip
Upload MP3, WAV, AAC, M4A, or OGG audio (max 10 MB, max 15 seconds). Clear speech recordings in a quiet environment produce the best phoneme extraction. If you don't have audio yet, use our Text to Speech tool to generate dialogue from text, then feed the output directly into lip sync.
Select Model and Generate
Choose Kling Avatar Standard (720p), Kling Avatar Pro (1080p), or Latiai Lip Sync (480p or 720p). Optionally set a seed value for Latiai Lip Sync to enable reproducible output. Processing typically completes within 1–5 minutes. Download the finished MP4 when ready.
AI Lip Sync Use Cases
Audio-driven video generation for marketing, education, support, and content repurposing.
Virtual Brand Spokesperson
One photo shoot, unlimited script updates
Photograph your spokesperson once, then generate new talking head videos for every product launch, seasonal campaign, or A/B test variant. Update the script without rescheduling talent. A 15-second ad generates in minutes — a fraction of the time and cost of a studio reshoot.
AI Instructor for Course Content
Scale narration without re-recording
Upload an instructor portrait and lesson audio to produce narrated course modules. When curriculum changes, re-record only the audio and regenerate the video — the visual presenter stays consistent. Latiai Lip Sync with seed control ensures identical visual output across module updates, maintaining course continuity.
Camera-Free Video Presence
Post talking-head content without filming
Record a voiceover on your phone, upload it with a portrait, and get a TikTok-ready talking video in under 5 minutes. Latiai Lip Sync at 480p offers the most economical path to talking-head content. No ring light, no makeup, no editing. Pair with our Text to Speech tool to skip recording entirely.
Always-Available Virtual Agent
Put a human face on automated help
Generate lip sync FAQ videos and onboarding walkthroughs that customers can watch 24/7. A library of 20 support videos at 10 seconds each generates faster than recording them manually — and updates require only a new audio file. Update answers by replacing only the audio track.
Same Face, Any Language
Localize video without re-filming
The lip sync AI reads audio waveforms, not text, so it works with any spoken language. Record or synthesize audio in English, Mandarin, Spanish, Arabic, or Hindi, and generate a matching talking head video from the same portrait. The viseme mapping adapts to each language's phoneme set automatically.
Audio-to-Video Repurposing
Turn podcast clips into watchable content
Extract a 15-second highlight from your podcast, pair it with a speaker portrait, and generate a lip sync video clip for YouTube Shorts or Instagram Reels. The AI maps speech rhythm to head movement and facial expression, making audio-only content visually engaging for video-first platforms.
AI Lip Sync Best Practices
Portrait Selection Tips
- Front-facing portraits with visible mouth, chin, and jaw produce the most accurate viseme mapping
- Even, diffused lighting avoids hard shadows across the lower face that confuse the AI
- Avoid sunglasses, masks, scarves, or hands near the mouth — occluded areas reduce sync quality
- Resolution above 512px gives the model more facial detail to animate — 1024px+ is ideal for 1080p output
Audio Quality Tips
- Record in a quiet environment — background noise degrades phoneme boundary detection
- Maintain consistent volume and mic distance to avoid volume spikes that distort lip timing
- WAV and AAC formats preserve more waveform detail than highly compressed MP3 or OGG
- Natural speaking pace with clear consonants produces the most convincing lip sync — avoid mumbling
