Why teams pick Fliki for character swap

Swap the whole person, keep the whole shot

A face swap changes a face. A character swap replaces the body, clothes and look of the person on screen while the original performance stays. Fliki runs it on P-Video Replace and hands the result straight to a video editor.

Full body, not just a face

P-Video Replace swaps the entire person: face, hair, body shape, outfit and skin tone. Your new character inherits every step, turn and hand gesture from the original take.

The shot stays untouched

Camera move, framing, lighting, background and timing come from your source video. Nothing gets regenerated around the person, so the clip still cuts cleanly with the rest of your edit.

One photo is enough

Upload a single clear photo of the character. A real person, a 3D mascot, a cartoon or an AI-generated hero all work. No training set, no 20-image upload, no waiting for a custom model.

Reshoot without a reshoot

Keep the take you already love and change who is in it. Swapping a spokesperson for a regional market takes about a minute, against a day of crew, studio and talent fees for a new shoot.

Voice it in 80+ languages

Send the swapped clip to the Fliki editor and give the new character a voice from 2,000+ voices in 80+ languages with AI voiceover, or clone your own. The character speaks whatever market you are shipping to.

Lip sync the new character

When the new script differs from the original line, run AI lip sync on the swapped clip so the mouth matches the new audio. Character swap and lip sync chain together in one project.

Captions and b-roll in place

Add animated captions, cutaway b-roll, music and your brand kit to the swapped clip without exporting to another tool. The result is a finished ad or post, not a raw clip to fix elsewhere.

Saved to your drive

Every result lands in your Fliki drive next to the source. Run three characters on the same take, compare them side by side, and keep the one your team picks.

Commercial use on paid plans

Character swap is included in paid plans and billed in credits per run. Results are watermark-free and cleared for ads, client work and paid social, as long as you have consent from everyone shown.

How it works

How to swap a character in a video in 4 steps

Two uploads and one click. The performance comes from your video, the look comes from your photo.

Step 1

Upload the video

Pick a clip where one person is clearly visible. Steady framing and a full view of the body give the cleanest swap.

Step 2

Add the character photo

Upload one well-lit photo of the new character, ideally front-facing and full length so the outfit carries over.

Step 3

Run the swap

P-Video Replace rebuilds the person frame by frame while the motion, camera and background stay. Results arrive in about a minute.

Step 4

Finish in the editor

Open the result in Fliki to add a new voice, lip sync, captions, music and b-roll, then export in any aspect ratio.
