Akool

Akool is a generative AI platform for video and imagery - talking avatars, talking photos, face swap, video translation with lip-sync, background change, image generation, and a real-time streaming (live) avatar product. The Akool OpenAPI exposes these tools as an HTTPS REST API under https://openapi.akool.com, authenticated with a Bearer token minted from a clientId / clientSecret pair (or a direct x-api-key). Generation is asynchronous - callers create a task, then poll by id or receive an encrypted webhook callback when the task completes. The Live Avatar product opens a real-time session whose media is carried over a third-party WebRTC transport (Agora, LiveKit, or TRTC).

Akool publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Authentication API, Face Swap API, Image Generation API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include AI Avatars, Video Generation, AI Video, Face Swap, and Generative AI.

Akool’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 7 more developer resources.
