  title: Creatify AI Avatar AI Shorts API
  description: 'The Creatify API generates AI avatar and marketing videos programmatically. It turns product URLs, scripts, images, and text into short-form video ads narrated by ultra-realistic AI avatars. All endpoints are REST over HTTPS under https://api.creatify.ai/api and are authenticated with two headers, X-API-ID and X-API-KEY, issued from the in-app API Dashboard at app.creatify.ai (API access requires an active paid subscription).


    Media generation is asynchronous: a POST creates a job and returns an id with a status ("pending"), and the caller polls GET /{resource}/{id}/ until status is "done" (or "error"). Some endpoints additionally accept a webhook_url and POST a status update to the caller on completion. There is no WebSocket or SSE surface. Usage is metered in credits (roughly 5 credits per 30 seconds of video and 1 credit per 30 seconds of audio).


    Endpoints tagged with x-modeled: true below are inferred from Creatify''s documented product areas plus the platform''s consistent /api/{resource}/ + /api/{resource}/{id}/ convention, because a fully published reference page for the exact path was not available at authoring time. Verify their request/response schemas against docs.creatify.ai.'
