# Heygen v5 Digital Twin API

> Digital twin Avatar V con output 4k, WebM trasparente, sfondo, filigrana e didascalie SRT

Crea un video di avatar parlante dal testo (`prompt` e `voice`) o da un `audio_url` per la sincronizzazione labiale. Seleziona un `avatar` nominato, una modalità `fit` tra contain e cover e una risoluzione di 720p, 1080p o 4k. `output_format` può essere mp4 o webm; webm è trasparente. Le opzioni includono composizione dello sfondo, sovrapposizione di una filigrana e un file di didascalie SRT separato.

- Model id: `heygen/avatar5/digital-twin`

- Category: Lipsync & Avatars
- Output: video
- Price per second of your input audio: $0.10 / second of input audio (cheapest run $0.10 (100 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/it/developers/models/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin

## Pricing

Price: **$0.10 / second of input audio**. Price per second of your input audio: 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 $1.00 = 1000 API credits (10 s input audio × $0.10).

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/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin` 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `avatar` |  | string \| null | no | `Abigail Sofa Front` |  | Nome che identifica un avatar idoneo per Avatar V. |
| `prompt` |  | string \| null | no |  |  | Testo parlato dall'avatar; obbligatorio se `audio_url` è omesso. |
| `voice` |  | enum (string) \| null | no | `Warm Pro Narrator` | `Warm Pro Narrator`, `Chill Brian`, `Ivy`, `John Doe`, `Monika Sogam`, `Hope `, `Archer `, `Brittney`, `Patrick`, `David Castlemore`, `Michael C`, `Adam Stone `, `Juniper`, `Cassidy `, `Jessica Anne Bogart`, `Arabella`, `Andrew`, `Spuds Oxley `, `Grace Elder`, `Helen`, `Canyon Rivers`, `Derya - Lifelike - Excited 🤩`, `Mellow Marcus`, `Jack Sterling - Broadcaster 🎙️`, `Brenda - UGC - 1.mp4`, `Reid`, `Reagan`, `Terry`, `Jenny`, `Radio Rick`, `Denise`, `Tim in car - Excited 🤩`, `Iskander`, `Thompson`, `Delicate Daisy - Excited 🤩`, `Kingston`, `George UGC 1`, `Bold Blake`, `Jane`, `Expressive Evan`, `Marianne - IA`, `Aaron`, `Modern Recipe Host - Voice 1`, `Willow`, `Cute Chloe - Friendly 😊`, `Rafael`, `June - Lifelike`, `Crisp Chloe`, `Slick Simon`, `Nassim - Informative`, `Baritone Ben`, `Maxwell`, `Ellie Faye - Excited 🤩`, `Milani`, `Feisty Fiona - Excited 🤩`, `Professor Dean`, `Rose - UGC - 1.mp4`, `Shona`, `Hudson Wilder`, `Ann - IA`, `Alastair Kensington`, `Oxley`, `Christina`, `Andrew Rizz `, `Peyton`, `Gerardo - Outdoor`, `Chloe - Lifelike`, `Stephanie`, `Anthony - IA`, `Signal - Voice 1`, `Luca`, `Lisa - Voice 1`, `T.W.Tucker`, `Jack Sullivan - Serious 😐`, `Winter`, `Mireia - Lifelike`, `Georgia`, `Stella`, `Masha - Lifelike`, `Charming Charles - Friendly 😊`, `Serenity`, `Annie - Excited`, `Ralph`, `Bethany`, `Dominic`, `Mason Finn`, `Leena`, `Veteran Victor`, `Tamara`, `Nik Public`, `Calm Chloe`, `Sevik`, `Reilly`, `Raul`, `Imposing Ian`, `Relaxed Ray`, `Dexter - Professional`, `Relaxed Rick`, `Edwin`, `Rupert Blackwood`, `Ginny`, `Hope` | Selezione della voce dell'avatar per nome per la sintesi vocale; si applica solo senza un `audio_url`. |
| `audio_url` | `audio` | string (audio URL) \| null | no |  |  | Sorgente per la sincronizzazione labiale fornita come URL HTTP(S) di un file audio, che sostituisce la sintesi vocale quando presente. In tal caso non vengono usati né `prompt` né `voice`. |
| `fit` |  | enum (string) | no | `cover` | `contain`, `cover` | Scegli l'inquadratura dell'avatar: 'cover' riempie il fotogramma di output ma può ritagliare l'avatar, mentre 'contain' mostra l'intero avatar ma può aggiungere bande nere. |

| `background` |  | object {type, value} \| null | no |  |  | Livello di sfondo posizionato facoltativamente dietro l'avatar, tranne con `output_format='webm'`: l'output webm trasparente ignora questa impostazione. |
| `background.type` |  | enum (string) | no | `color` | `color`, `image` | Tipo di sfondo: `color` specifica un colore esadecimale uniforme, mentre `image` specifica un URL di immagine. |
| `background.value` |  | string | no | `#FFFFFF` |  | Contenuto dello sfondo: un colore esadecimale quando il tipo è `color` oppure un URL HTTP(S) quando il tipo è `image`. |

| `watermark.image_url` |  | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL HTTP(S) dell'immagine della filigrana da sovrapporre al video. |
| `watermark.scale` |  | number \| null | no |  | ≤ 2, > 0 | Dimensione della filigrana relativa al video, maggiore di 0.0 e fino a 2.0. |
| `watermark.opacity` |  | number \| null | no |  | 0 – 1 | Livello di trasparenza della filigrana: 0.0 è completamente trasparente e 1.0 completamente opaca. |
| `watermark.placement` |  | enum (string) \| null | no |  | `top-left`, `top-right`, `bottom-left`, `bottom-right` | Posizione della filigrana nel video. |
| `caption` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controlla la generazione di un file di sottotitoli SRT separato associato al video. |
| `output_format` |  | enum (string) | no | `mp4` | `mp4`, `webm` | Selezione del contenitore video, con `webm` che abilita la trasparenza tramite la rimozione automatica dello sfondo; in tale modalità `background` non ha effetto. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `720p` | `720p`, `1080p`, `4k` | Preimpostazione della risoluzione per l'output generato. |
| `aspect_ratio` |  | enum (string) | no | `16:9` | `16:9`, `9:16`, `4:5`, `5:4`, `1:1`, `auto` | Selezione delle proporzioni del video: 'auto' chiede a HeyGen di leggere e mantenere le proporzioni sorgente, usando '16:9' se non è possibile. Le proporzioni esplicite sono '16:9', '9:16', '4:5', '5:4' e '1:1'. |
| `enable_safety_checker` |  | boolean | no | `true` |  | Il controllo può essere allentato impostando false, se il chiamante è autorizzato. |

File parameters (`audio`) 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
{}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
  "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
}
```

## 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/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
    "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
  }'

# 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

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/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin?wait=20", {

  }),
});
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 = {
    "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
    "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3",
}

# Run the model; wait up to 20 s for the finished result in the same call
r = requests.post(API + "/run/heygen/avatar5/digital-twin", 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": "heygen/avatar5/digital-twin",
      "input": {
        "prompt": "A red fox trots through fresh snow at sunrise, soft golden light, shallow depth of field",
        "audio_url": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
      },
      "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.
