Hedra

Hedra is an AI-powered creative platform and video generator focused on creating character-driven videos from images, text, and audio. Its Character-3 model can turn a single static portrait and a script into a speaking digital avatar with lip-sync, facial movements, and expressive animation.

Beyond talking-avatar videos, Hedra provides a broader creative workspace where users can generate images, work with audio, develop scripts, and organize projects. Its infinite canvas also allows users to connect creative assets, reuse brand elements, and coordinate different AI models in one workspace.

How Hedra Works

• Input Assets: Upload a front-facing photo or generate an image using Hedra's AI tools, then provide a script through text or an audio recording.
• Multimodal Processing: Hedra's Character-3 model processes the image, audio, and text together to generate expressions, speech, and character movements.
• Avatar Animation: The system maps mouth movements, blinks, head tilts, and micro-expressions onto the uploaded character image.
• Video Rendering: Hedra renders the animated talking character into a finished video, with generation typically completed within minutes.
• Infinite Canvas and AI Agents: Users can also work in an infinite canvas to plan scripts, organize assets, connect brand information, and coordinate multiple video, image, and audio models.
