Frequently asked questions
Everything about making a photo talk with TalkPix — how it works, pricing, voices, video quality, and privacy.
What is TalkPix?
TalkPix is a browser-based AI studio, also on iPhone, iPad and Android, that turns a photo into a talking or singing video, with the lips synced to a typed script or your own audio. The same credits make AI videos with 14 models including Veo 3.1, Kling 4.0 and Seedance 2.5, ready-made trend templates, original AI songs, voice clones, talking objects, AI images, AI influencers, product video ads and product photos: 10 creation studios plus Video Upscale and AI Video Edit, on one credit balance. You pay with one-time credit packs that never expire, and there is no subscription.
Which AI video models can I use?
The AI Video studio has 14 models: P-Video 2 Pro, P-Video 2 Pro Reference, Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast, Seedance 1.5 Pro, Seedance 2.0 Mini, Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.5, Hailuo 2.3, MiniMax H3, Veo 3.1 Lite, Veo 3.1 Fast, Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0 and Kling 4.0. Each is billed per rendered second at its own rate, from 1 to 13 credits per second at 720p, and the studio shows the exact total before it renders. Seedance 1.0 Pro Fast and Hailuo 2.3 render picture only; the others generate sound with the video.
How do I make a photo talk?
Upload a clear, front-facing portrait, enter a script or upload audio, choose the available voice and video settings, review the credit estimate, and generate. The finished video appears in your TalkPix account for preview and download.
Does TalkPix require a subscription?
One-time, pay-as-you-go credit packs; no recurring subscription is required.
Does TalkPix have an iPhone or Android app?
Yes. TalkPix runs in any phone or computer browser, and there are apps for iPhone and iPad on the App Store and for Android on Google Play, both called “TalkPix: AI Talking Photo”. Their in-app purchases are one-time credit packs that go into the same TalkPix account balance you use on the web, at the store's own prices.
How much does it cost?
Reusable credit packs start at $5 and credits never expire. Payment is required before any generation runs. One-time packs: Mini 50 credits for $5, Starter 120 credits for $10, Creator 350 credits for $25, Pro 800 credits for $50, Studio 1800 credits for $100, Agency 3800 credits for $200. 1 credit = 1 second of Talking Photo video at 720p, and 2 credits per second at 1080p. AI Video is billed per second at the model's own rate, from 1 to 13 credits per second at 720p. Credit cost depends on the selected studio, model, resolution, and output duration. The exact estimate is shown before generation.
Can I get a refund?
You can request a refund of unused wallet credits at any time by emailing support@talkpix.ai. Purchased credits never expire, so there is no deadline to use or reclaim them. Credits reserved for a generation that fails before successful delivery are returned automatically. UK and EEA consumers can cancel within 14 days for anything they have not used; credits spent on a delivered video are not refundable because you ask for immediate access at checkout. Faulty or undelivered output is always covered. The full terms are on the Refund Policy page.
Can I use TalkPix in the US, UK, Canada, or Australia?
Yes, and in most other countries too. TalkPix is available to creators, marketers, and e-commerce sellers well beyond the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, including the EU. Prices are set in USD. Card payments through iyzico are charged in your own currency where it can (euros, British pounds, Swiss francs or Norwegian kroner), in US dollars elsewhere and in Turkish lira in Türkiye. The exact amount and currency are shown before you pay. Where it is not your currency, your bank converts it and may add a foreign-transaction fee, and an amount shown in your currency with ≈ is an estimate.
What kind of photo works best?
A clear, front-facing portrait with good lighting and one person in the frame, where the whole face is visible and not cropped. You can also start with one of our ready-made stock avatars.
What voices and languages are supported?
The Talking Photo studio currently lists 30 AI voices across 10 languages: English (US), English (UK), Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Japanese, Korean, Hindi. Available voices and settings are shown in the studio.
Can I use my own voice or audio?
Yes. Switch to 'My voice' mode and upload an audio clip, and the avatar will lip-sync to your recording instead of an AI voice.
How long does video generation take?
Generation time varies with the selected studio, model, resolution, output duration, and provider demand. TalkPix shows the job status while it renders, and the completed file appears in your account when it is ready.
Are the videos HD, and can I download them?
Available resolutions depend on the selected model. Completed talking-photo and video outputs are downloadable MP4 files. Provider-backed generation starts only after successful payment or a sufficient confirmed credit balance.
Can I use TalkPix videos commercially?
Outputs may be used commercially when the user has the necessary rights and consent for every input and follows the TalkPix Terms and applicable third-party platform rules.
How long does TalkPix retain uploaded and generated content?
Normal generation inputs and outputs are retained for 30 days after the job is created. AI Influencer identity portraits and reusable scene assets that you explicitly save are retained until you delete the profile or asset. See the Privacy Policy for full terms.
Can I make a talking pet or object?
Yes — TalkPix isn't limited to people. You can animate pets, toys, and other objects with a clear front-facing image.
What counts as a failed render?
A failed render is a generation that ended without delivering a video: it stopped on a technical error, or the safety filter rejected the photo or script. The credits reserved for it are returned to your balance automatically. A video that finishes but is not what you hoped for is a delivered video, not a failed render, and the credits it used are spent; if something looks wrong with it, contact support and a person will look at the job.
Do I pay again each time I change a video and generate it again?
Editing costs nothing: you can change the photo, rewrite the script, and listen to voice samples without spending credits. Credits are spent only when you generate, and each generation is a new render billed at the rate shown before it starts (1 credit = 1 second of Talking Photo video at 720p). To keep test runs cheap, try a short line first, then render the full script once the photo and voice are right.
What happens if generation fails?
Credits reserved for a generation that fails before successful delivery are returned automatically. Refunds for unused purchased credits and delivered outputs are governed by the Terms.
