Avatar Videos

Kaltura VOD Avatar Studio API​

The VOD Avatar Studio lets you create pre-recorded avatar video presentations programmatically. You can select an AI avatar, write scenes with narration text, optionally use AI to compose scripts from existing video content, and generate a professional video of the avatar delivering the content. The generated video is saved as a standard Kaltura media entry.

This guide covers two integration paths:

  • Server-side API (sections 4–10) — Full programmatic control over avatar videos: create, compose, generate, manage
  • Widget embed (section 11) — Drop-in browser UI for end users via the Kaltura embeds framework

For real-time conversational avatars, see the Conversational Agents or Live Avatar SDK.
