# Depth Anything Video API

> Estime des cartes de profondeur par image pour une vidéo d’entrée, avec options de taille, de palette et de comparaison côte à côte

Transforme une vidéo en visualisation de profondeur cohérente d’une image à l’autre. Sélectionnez une taille de modèle (VDA-Small, VDA-Base ou VDA-Large), une palette (grayscale, turbo, inferno, magma ou viridis) et une `resolution` de sortie jusqu’à 1080p. Vous pouvez afficher l’original à côté de la vidéo de profondeur avec `side_by_side`, limiter les images avec `max_frames` (jusqu’à 2400) ou exporter les valeurs de profondeur brutes dans un fichier .npz.

- Model id: `depth-anything-video`

- 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/fr/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 pointant vers la vidéo utilisée pour l'estimation de profondeur. |
| `model` |  | enum (string) | no | `VDA-Large` | `VDA-Small`, `VDA-Base`, `VDA-Large` | Taille du modèle d'estimation de profondeur ; VDA-Large offre la meilleure qualité, tandis que VDA-Small est le plus rapide. |
| `colormap` |  | enum (string) | no | `grayscale` | `grayscale`, `turbo`, `inferno`, `magma`, `viridis` | Palette de visualisation de la profondeur : 'grayscale' affiche la profondeur normalisée brute, tandis que 'viridis' offre une vue adaptée aux personnes daltoniennes et 'inferno' ou 'magma' une uniformité perceptuelle. La palette 'turbo' recommandée associe les régions proches à des couleurs chaudes et les régions éloignées à des couleurs froides. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `360p`, `480p`, `720p`, `1080p` | Résolution de la sortie ; `auto` conserve la résolution de l'entrée jusqu'à 1080p. Valeurs disponibles : 'auto', '360p', '480p', '720p', '1080p'. |
| `max_frames` |  | integer \| null | no |  | > 0 | Limite de traitement des images, plafonnée à 2400. La valeur None permet également de traiter jusqu'à 2400 images. |
| `output_fps` |  | number \| null | no |  | > 0 | Fréquence d'images de la vidéo de sortie. None conserve la fréquence d'images de l'entrée. |
| `side_by_side` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Contrôle la sortie d'une vidéo comparant côte à côte les vues originale et de profondeur. |
| `include_raw_depths` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Contrôle l'exportation des données brutes de profondeur float32 vers un fichier .npz contenant `depths` [N,H,W], `min_depth`, `max_depth`, `fps`, `model` et `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.
