720p, no logo. We tested five talking-video APIs on the same photo and voice clip and listed what every service we could verify charges. See the prices and the test results.

Why it is this cheap

We run the model on our own GPUs instead of reselling someone else's API, and the model animates the face rather than the whole body. You get a presenter talking to camera: lips, eyes and head in sync with the speech, blended back into your original photo so the framing and background stay exactly as they were. You do not get hand gestures or a person walking around a set. Models that do that cost ten to fifty times more per minute.

Questions

What does Stork do?
Stork turns one photo and a script or voice recording into a lip-synced talking video. You can make a ten-second greeting or an hour-long lecture with the same tool, in the browser or through an API.
How much does it cost?
You can make 2 videos a day for free, up to 1 minute each, with a small stork.ai logo. Without the logo it is $0.20 per minute of finished video at 720p, or $0.40 per minute for the sharper Pro model. You pay with prepaid credits from $5. There is no subscription.
How long can a video be?
Paid videos have no length limit. We have rendered a 33-minute video in one piece in 25 minutes. Most talking-avatar tools stop at 10 minutes or less per video.
What moves in the video?
The face: lips, jaw, eyes, brows and small head movements, in sync with the speech. Hands, shoulders and the background stay as they are in the photo. That is why it costs a fraction of the models that animate a whole body.
Whose photo can I use?
Your own face, or someone who has given you permission. You must not use it to deceive, impersonate or harass anyone.
Is Stork still an AI tools directory?
Yes. The directory, the reviews, the alternatives pages and the daily AI news are all still here. They are linked from this page and from the menu.
