AI Talking Avatar Generator
Zappy's talking avatar mode animated a single portrait to speak a typed script in a chosen voice - presenters, explainers and social clips from one photo - and it will again once its reliability work is finished.
Until then the mode is switched off: no credits are charged, and nothing is queued. Image generation, cinematic video, text-to-speech voices and Story Studio stay open.
Talking avatars are temporarily unavailable while we improve their reliability. Image generation, cinematic video, text-to-speech voices and Story Studio are open, and your credits are untouched.

FAQ
Are talking avatars available right now?
No. Talking avatars are temporarily unavailable while we improve their reliability. The mode is hidden in the studio and any direct request is refused before any credits are charged.
What will I need when it returns?
A clear front-facing photo, the text you want spoken and a voice choice - the same inputs the mode used before.
What can I use in the meantime?
Text-to-speech voices in the audio studio, image-to-video animation, cinematic video and multi-shot Story Studio scenes. Follow the blog for the reactivation announcement.
