A standard video generator typically requires pre-rendered content and templates, producing static outputs. In contrast, an AI avatar API like D-ID’s dynamically generates human-like video content based on input—text, audio, or real-time interactions. It allows for personalization at scale and direct integration into apps or services. The result is a much more flexible, natural, and interactive experience for your users.

This makes interactions more engaging and accessible, especially in customer service, onboarding, and education use cases.
