Video Replace
2 min read · Updated October 15, 2026
Video Replace swaps the person in a video with the person in your photo: the movement, camera and scene stay the same, while the face and look change. For a quick start, see How to star in a viral video.
Requirements
| Photo | JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC · up to 15 MB · one person |
| Your own video | MP4, MOV · up to 200 MB · up to 30 seconds |
| Credits | Paid credits (trial credits don't work) |
| Consent | "I am the person in this photo, or I have their explicit permission" (required) |
Steps
- Open Put yourself in a video (main menu or gallery).
- Choose the source video: a ready-made trend template, or Upload your own video.
- If you uploaded your own video, Rayomo checks it. If you see "We couldn't find a person to replace in this video", try a video where the person is larger and more clearly visible.
- Add your photo. Choose a photo with a similar angle and framing to the person in the video.
- Confirm the likeness consent. The first time, you'll also be asked to accept the explicit consent text for processing face images.
- Choose the tier and resolution. Fast goes up to 720p, Premium up to 1080p. Credits are calculated from the video length and shown above the button.
- Tap Generate. Videos take 1–5 minutes.
- Check the result and download it.
A good source video
- There's only one person to replace, and they fill most of the screen.
- The face is visible for most of the video and isn't turned away for long.
- The lighting is good, with no very fast camera movement or blur.
- Objects don't keep passing in front of the person.
Tips
- If your video is long, trim the best 5–10 seconds and upload that: it's cheaper and more consistent.
- Clothing changes too. If you don't want the outfit from your photo carried into the video, use a photo with simple clothing.
- Try the Fast tier first, then generate the one you like in Quality.
Common mistakes
| Mistake | Result |
|---|---|
| Video of a crowded scene | The wrong person is replaced, or the swap is incomplete |
| Person turned away / filmed from far away | The face stays unclear |
| Profile (side) photo with a front-facing video | Lower likeness |
| A viral video or someone else's photo used without permission | Breaks our guidelines; content is removed and the account may be closed |
Guidelines (summary)
- Only use yourself or people who have given you explicit permission.
- Don't create content that impersonates celebrities, politicians or the video's original creator, or that misleads viewers.
- Videos involving children are for innocent, family use only; sexual or violent contexts are strictly prohibited.
- Use the "AI-generated" label when you share.
