Stock AI avatars API: find a ready-made avatar for a talking video
Search Sume's avatar catalog with POST /v1/avatar-catalog/search, pick a ready public avatar, and pass its handle to a talking video without creating one.
How to create a reusable AI avatar with the Sume Avatar 1.0 API
Send POST /v1/avatar-1.0/generate with an avatar_handle and a prompt, profile, or image input. Poll the job, then reuse the handle for avatar videos.
Talking avatar video API: generate an avatar video from a script
POST /v1/avatar-1.0/talking-video turns a ready avatar and a 4-60 second script into a talking video. Options, captions, polling, and per-second rates.
Multi-scene avatar video API: build one video from ordered scenes
Send ordered video_inputs instead of one script to compose spoken and silent scenes into one 4-60 second avatar video. Scene fields, rules, and limits.
Avatar video previews: approve the first frame before rendering
Create an avatar video preview to get first-frame stills, regenerate them if needed, then call generate-video on the preview id to render the final video.

Avatar Face Swap 1.0 is a Beta Sume endpoint that applies a ready avatar's face to a short public source video. Required fields, limits, and polling.
