What is the latency of the A2E Video APIs?

The latency of the A2E Video APIs depends on the specific API you are using. For the “Link to video” API, there are two separate requests:

  1. Link creation: This process is fast and typically takes less than 5 seconds.
  2. Link to video: Generating a video from a link takes around 5 minutes. This is because the API needs to perform several tasks, such as generating a script, generating audio, matching an avatar, finding the best assets to display, and synchronizing the lip movements.

For the “Lip synchronization” API, the latency is approximately 1:10, meaning that generating a 15-second video will take about 150 seconds. The latency also depends on the avatar resolution you choose. Higher resolution avatars will take longer to generate compared to lower resolution ones.
