# Depth Anything Video API

> Estimescha mapas da profunditad per frame per ina video d'entrada, cun opziuns per grondezza, colormap e cumparegliaziun side-by-side

Transfurma in video en ina visualisaziun da profunditad cun resultats consistents tranter frames. Tschernì la grondezza dal model (VDA-Small, VDA-Base u VDA-Large), ina paletta da colurs (grayscale, turbo, inferno, magma u viridis) e ina `resolution` d'output fin a 1080p. Facultativamain renda il video original sper il video da profunditad cun `side_by_side`, limita ils frames cun `max_frames` (fin a 2400), u exporta ils values crivs da profunditad sco datoteca .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/rm/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 che mussa il video utilisà per stimar la profunditad. |
| `model` |  | enum (string) | no | `VDA-Large` | `VDA-Small`, `VDA-Base`, `VDA-Large` | Grondezza dal model d'estimaziun da la profunditad; VDA-Large porscha la meglra qualitad, entant che VDA-Small va il pli svelt. |
| `colormap` |  | enum (string) | no | `grayscale` | `grayscale`, `turbo`, `inferno`, `magma`, `viridis` | Paletta da visualisaziun da la profunditad: 'grayscale' mussa la profunditad normalisada criva, entant che 'viridis' porscha ina vista adattada per persunas daltonicas e 'inferno' u 'magma' porschan uniformitad perceptiva. La paletta 'turbo' recumandada attribuescha colurs chaudas a las regiuns vischinas e colurs fraidas a las regiuns lontanas. |
| `resolution` |  | enum (string) | no | `auto` | `auto`, `360p`, `480p`, `720p`, `1080p` | Resoluziun per l'output; `auto` mantegna la resoluziun da l'input fin a 1080p. Valurs disponiblas: 'auto', '360p', '480p', '720p', '1080p'. |
| `max_frames` |  | integer \| null | no |  | > 0 | Dumber maximal da frame da processar, limità a 2400. La valur None permetta era fin a 2400 frame. |
| `output_fps` |  | number \| null | no |  | > 0 | Frame rate dal video final. None mantegna il frame rate da l'input. |
| `side_by_side` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controlla l'output d'in video che cumpareglia las vistas originalas e da la profunditad ina sper l'autra. |
| `include_raw_depths` |  | boolean | no | `false` |  | Controlla l'export da las datas crivas da profunditad float32 en ina datoteca .npz che cuntegna `depths` [N,H,W], `min_depth`, `max_depth`, `fps`, `model` e `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.
