How real-time AI face swapping works

Your browser streams camera video directly to a generative AI engine. The engine reads each frame, applies the character described by your reference photo and prompt, and streams the transformed video back. Nothing passes through Shape Shiftr's servers.

Expressions and movement

Because the model works from your live video, head turns, blinks, speech and expressions are carried into the transformed result. Fast movement, low light or a face partly out of frame can reduce accuracy.

Reference photos guide the result

Each look starts from three to ten photos. One is the main reference for the face. Mark a full-body photo to use Full body or Outfit only modes. Clear, front-facing, well-lit photos give the strongest likeness.

Static face swap versus live transformation

Static face swap apps edit a finished photo or video afterward. Live transformation happens while you are on camera, so you can react, perform and stream as the character in real time.

Creative, authorized uses

Use live face swap for character performances, skits, original personas and creative content. Only build looks from photos you have the rights to use, and never use it to impersonate a real person. Recordings are labeled as AI output.

Swap modes

Swap your face, your body or just your outfit.

FAQ

Common questions

Is the face swap actually live?

Yes. Video streams from your browser to the AI engine and back continuously. The delay depends on your connection and device.

How many photos do I need?

At least three, up to ten. Add a full-body photo if you want full body or outfit swaps.

Can I switch characters during a stream?

Yes, you can change the look's details and likeness live. Switching to a different saved look restarts the transformation briefly.

Can I swap into a celebrity?

No. Only use photos you own or have permission to use. For original personas, see AI streaming avatars.
