It replaces the face of the person in the target image with the face from your reference image, and keeps the rest of the target photo as the base of the result.
Face SwapImage-to-ImageConsent Required
Face Swap is APIXO’s image-to-image API for replacing the face in a target photo with the face from a reference photo, while keeping the target’s pose, clothing, and background. Use it only with portraits you own or have explicit permission to use.

Purpose-built face replacement for authorized portraits
Face Replacement
Place the face from your reference photo onto the person in the target photo in a single task.
Two Clear Inputs
Each task takes one target image and one face reference image, so it is always clear which photo supplies the face and which one keeps the scene.
Scene Preservation
The target photo’s pose, clothing, and background are kept as the base of the result, while very different angles or lighting may reduce how natural the swap looks.
Seed Control
Pass an optional seed to keep results closer between runs with the same inputs, or leave it empty for a random seed.
Async Processing
Submit swap jobs asynchronously. APIXO recommends the first status poll about 10 seconds after task creation, then every 5–10 seconds.
Callback Delivery
Provide a public HTTPS callback URL to receive the result automatically when the swap task completes.

Quick Start
Swap a face in three steps

01
Provide the target image
Submit one publicly accessible photo whose face should be replaced. Only use portraits you own or have permission to edit.
02
Provide the face reference
Submit one publicly accessible photo of the face to use. You must have the pictured person’s consent.
03
Retrieve the result
Poll the asynchronous task or use callback delivery to receive the swapped image automatically.
Notes & FAQ
Face Swap usage guidance
Notes
01
Only process portraits you own or have explicit permission to use. Do not use Face Swap to impersonate anyone, to commit fraud, or to create sexually explicit content without the pictured person’s consent.
02
Each task requires exactly 1 target image and 1 face reference image.
03
Image URLs must be public and directly accessible by the service.
04
Clear, well-lit, front-facing faces usually give more natural results; strong angle, lighting, or occlusion differences between the two photos may leave visible artifacts.
Frequently Asked Questions
Face Swap takes a face reference and replaces only the face in the target photo. Head Swap takes a head reference and replaces the whole head instead.
Each completed swap is billed at $0.0156 per output image. The seed setting does not change the price.
Only if you have that person’s permission. Use Face Swap solely with portraits you own or are authorized to use, and never to impersonate someone, commit fraud, or create sexually explicit content without consent.
Not necessarily. Large differences in head angle, lighting, resolution, or face coverage between the two photos can reduce realism or leave visible artifacts.
