# sync-3 Avatar Image to Video API

> Hubadilisha picha moja tuli na njia ya sauti kuwa video ya mtu anayezungumza inayolingana na urefu wa sauti

Huchukua `image_url` (JPEG, PNG au WebP) na `audio_url`, kisha huigiza uso ili kusawazisha midomo na sauti. Inafaa kwa michoro au fremu zilizohuishwa pamoja na picha. Video ya matokeo ina muda sawa na sauti. Hakuna vigezo vingine.

- Model id: `sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video`
- Made by: Sync Labs
- Category: Lipsync & Avatars
- Output: video
- Price per minute of your input audio: $8.00 / minute of input audio (cheapest run $8.00 (8000 API credits))
- Run: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/run/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video`
- Quote: `POST https://api.doitong.com/v1/quote/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video`
- Docs page: https://doitong.com/sw/developers/models/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video

## Pricing

Price: **$8.00 / minute of input audio**. Price per minute 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 $1.334 = 1334 API credits (0.1667 min input audio × $8.00).

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/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `image_url` | `image` | string (image URL) | yes |  |  | URL inayoelekeza kwenye picha ya JPEG, PNG au WebP kwa uzalishaji wa picha-kwa-video na sync-3. Modeli huhuisha uso ulio kwenye picha, ikilandanishwa miondoko ya midomo na sauti iliyotolewa. |
| `audio_url` | `audio` | string (audio URL) | yes |  |  | URL ya sauti ya ingizo; video inayozalishwa ina urefu sawa na sauti hii. |

File parameters (`image`, `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
{
  "image": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/avatar/talking_avatar.jpg",
  "audio": "https://content.doitong.com/audio/showcase/v3/tools/dub_es.mp3"
}
```

A fuller example:

```json
{
  "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/avatar/talking_avatar.jpg",
  "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/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video?wait=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOITONG_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/avatar/talking_avatar.jpg",
    "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

  "Content-Type": "application/json",
};

// 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 = {
    "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/avatar/talking_avatar.jpg",
    "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/sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-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": "sync-lipsync/v3/image-to-video",
      "input": {
        "image_url": "https://content.doitong.com/images/showcase/v3/avatar/talking_avatar.jpg",
        "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.
