# Depth Anything Video API

> Calcula mapas de profundidad por fotograma para un vídeo de entrada, con opciones de tamaño, mapa de colores y comparación en paralelo

Convierte un vídeo en una visualización de profundidad con resultados uniformes entre fotogramas. Selecciona un tamaño de modelo (VDA-Small, VDA-Base o VDA-Large), un mapa de colores (grayscale, turbo, inferno, magma o viridis) y una `resolution` de salida de hasta 1080p. También puedes renderizar el original junto al vídeo de profundidad con `side_by_side`, limitar los fotogramas con `max_frames` (hasta 2400) o exportar los valores de profundidad sin procesar como archivo .npz.

- Model id: `depth-anything-video`
- Made by: ByteDance
- Category: Video to Video
- Output: video
- Price per second of your input video: $0.04 / second of input video (cheapest run $0.04 (40 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/depth-anything-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/depth-anything-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/es/developers/models/depth-anything-video

## Pricing

Price: **$0.04 / second of input video**. Price per second of your input video: the input files are measured before the run (length, resolution, frame rate). The quote measures the same files and is exactly what the run charges.

The full example input below costs $0.40 = 400 API credits (10 s input video × $0.04).

Prices are the upstream price in USD, paid from the API balance in API credits (1000 API credits = 1 USD). `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/depth-anything-video` with the same JSON body returns the exact price for that input; the quote is exactly what a run charges. Invalid input is never charged and failed or canceled requests are refunded automatically.

## Input parameters

Send either the canonical name or the native field name (not both). Canonical names are the same across models.

| Parameter | Canonical name | Type | Required | Default | Allowed values / range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `video_url` | `video` | string (video URL) | yes |  |  | URL que apunta al video utilizado para estimar la profundidad. |
| `model` |  | enum (string) | no | `VDA-Large` | `VDA-Small`, `VDA-Base`, `VDA-Large` | Tamaño del modelo de estimación de profundidad; VDA-Large ofrece la mayor calidad, mientras que VDA-Small se ejecuta más rápido. |
| `colormap` |  | enum (string) | no | `grayscale` | `grayscale`, `turbo`, `inferno`, `magma`, `viridis` | Paleta de visualización de profundidad: 'grayscale' muestra la profundidad normalizada sin procesar, mientras que 'viridis' ofrece una vista accesible para personas daltónicas y 'inferno' o 'magma' proporcionan uniformidad perceptual. La paleta recomendada 'turbo' asigna colores cálidos a las regiones cercanas y colores fríos a las lejanas. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `360p`, `480p`, `720p`, `1080p` | Resolución de la salida; `auto` conserva la resolución de entrada hasta 1080p. Valores disponibles: 'auto', '360p', '480p', '720p', '1080p'. |
| `max_frames` |  | integer \| null | no |  | > 0 | Límite de procesamiento de fotogramas, con un máximo de 2400. Establecer None también permite hasta 2400 fotogramas. |
| `output_fps` |  | number \| null | no |  | > 0 | Frecuencia de fotogramas del video de salida. None conserva la frecuencia de fotogramas de entrada. |
| `side_by_side` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controla la salida de un video que compara las vistas original y de profundidad una junto a la otra. |
| `include_raw_depths` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controla la exportación de datos de profundidad float32 sin procesar a un archivo .npz que contiene `depths` [N,H,W], `min_depth`, `max_depth`, `fps`, `model` y `shape`. |

File parameters (`video`) take a public `https://` URL, a `data:` URI up to 10 MB, or the `file_url` of an upload from `POST /files`.

## Example input

Required parameters only:

```json
{
  "video": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
}
```

## Run it

Set `DOITONG_API_KEY` to a key from https://doitong.com/developers/dashboard#keys. `?wait=20` returns the finished request in the same call when it is ready within 20 seconds; otherwise poll `GET /requests/{id}` (it also accepts `?wait=`), or pass `webhook_url`.

### curl

```bash
# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
curl -X POST "https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/depth-anything-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
  }'

# Still "queued" or "running"? Poll with the id from the response:
curl "https://api.doitong.com/v1/requests/REQUEST_ID?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY"
```

### JavaScript

```javascript
const API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1";
const headers = {
  "Authorization": "Bearer " + process.env.DOITONG_API_KEY,
  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
let res = await fetch(API + "/run/depth-anything-video?wait=20", {
  method: "POST",
  headers,
  body: JSON.stringify({
    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
  }),
});
let request = await res.json();
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(request.error.code + ": " + request.error.message);

// Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while (request.status === "queued" || request.status === "running") {
  res = await fetch(API + "/requests/" + request.id + "?wait=20", { headers });
  request = await res.json();
}
if (request.status !== "succeeded") throw new Error(JSON.stringify(request.error));
console.log(request.outputs.map((o) => o.url), request.cost.credits + " API credits ($" + request.cost.usd + ")");
```

### Python

```python
import os
import requests

API = "https://api.doitong.com/v1"
headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + os.environ["DOITONG_API_KEY"]}

payload = {
    "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/depth-anything-video", params={"wait": 20}, json=payload, headers=headers)
request = r.json()
if not r.ok:
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"]["code"] + ": " + request["error"]["message"])

# Not finished yet: long-poll until it is
while request["status"] in ("queued", "running"):
    request = requests.get(API + "/requests/" + request["id"], params={"wait": 20}, headers=headers).json()
if request["status"] != "succeeded":
    raise RuntimeError(request["error"])
print([o["url"] for o in request["outputs"]], request["cost"]["credits"], "API credits", "$" + request["cost"]["usd"])
```

### MCP

The MCP server at `https://api.doitong.com/v1/mcp` exposes the tools `search_models`, `get_model`, `quote`, `run`, `get_request`, `cancel_request`, `list_requests`, `create_upload` and `get_account`. A `run` call for this model:

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "run",
    "arguments": {
      "model_id": "depth-anything-video",
      "input": {
        "video_url": "https://content.doitong.com/video/showcase/v3/gen_fox_cartoon.mp4"
      },
      "wait_seconds": 20
    }
  }
}
```

## Response

Every call returns a request object. `status` is one of `queued`, `running`, `succeeded`, `failed`, `canceled`. `outputs` lists the generated files with URLs on our storage (kept forever, or 7 days with `?storage=temporary`; `storage` says which); `output` is the model's own result object with the same URLs.
