A user uploads one or two permissioned photos, chooses a scene and theme, and Hookai renders a short rap performance video with generated vocals, a beat and lip-sync. ## Generation modes - **People** - solo (one photo), duo (two separate photos) or group (one photo containing both performers). - **Pet** - the same pipeline with animal-aware prompt guidance: preserve species, fur, markings and anatomy; avoid human hands or impossible gestures. Pet identity and anatomy can vary between frames. ## Inputs and scenes - One clear, front-facing, well-lit photo per performer, or one group photo. - A theme: birthday, team win, how we met, who cooks better, or a custom description. - Render settings: model (Standard, Fast, Pro, Ultra), resolution (480p or 720p), aspect ratio (9:16, 16:9, 1:1) and length (5-15 seconds). - Scenes: Hotel Lobby (orange), graffiti alley, studio booth, rooftop night, neon alley and court sunset. ## Output - MP4 rap performance video with lip-sync and native rap audio (vocals plus beat). - Default vertical 9:16; 16:9 and 1:1 are selectable. 480p or 720p. - Duration: 5, 8, 10, 12 or 15 seconds. - Hosted for 7 days after generation, then deleted. Users must download within that window. ## Audio and lyrics Hookai writes and performs the rap audio as part of the render. The current studio does not accept an uploaded song, an audio file, or full custom lyrics; those inputs are planned. Hookai does not clone a specific artist's voice or reproduce a copyrighted track. ## Credits and pricing Renders are paid with credits. Cost depends on model, resolution and length; the studio shows the exact cost before generating. Standard 720p costs 1 credit per second; 480p costs half; Fast, Pro and Ultra cost more per 10 seconds. Failed renders are not charged. Current packs, optional subscriptions and per-render costs: https://hookai.io/agents/pricing.md ## Limits Results are generative and may vary in facial details, hands, mouth movement, audio and background. A clear photo improves consistency but does not guarantee an exact likeness. Do not use Hookai to impersonate, deceive or harass anyone. ## Affiliation Hookai is independent. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by the creators or rights holders of any trend, song, artist or video, and is not affiliated with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, Perplexity or any other model vendor. ## More agent documents - Product: https://hookai.io/agents/product.md - FAQ: https://hookai.io/agents/faq.md - Pricing: https://hookai.io/agents/pricing.md ## Blog Posts ### Best AI Rap Video Generators in 2026: Lyrics, Songs or Video?
