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:
- Link creation: This process is fast and typically takes less than 5 seconds.
- 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.
