The Short Answer

The maximum is 60 seconds and 100 MB per video. Swap-Video does not process a full 5-minute or 10-minute video in one go. If you upload a longer file, it is trimmed automatically to its first 60 seconds, so you see the swap on that part for free.

Free use covers 2 swaps with an 8-second watermarked preview and a free 5-second watermarked download. The full 60-second version in 1080p without watermark is $2.99 per video.

Why 60 Seconds?

  • Cost per swap. The AI runs on cloud GPUs and every second of video is processed frame by frame. A hard cap keeps the price at $2.99 per video instead of a subscription.
  • Quality. Over a long video the face is more likely to turn away, get covered or change lighting. 60 seconds is long enough for a real clip and short enough for a clean result.
  • Speed. A clip finishes in about 2–3 minutes. You do not wait an hour for a long file.
  • Fits where videos get posted. TikTok, Reels, Shorts and WhatsApp statuses are all one minute or shorter.

How to Swap a Longer Video in Clips

  1. Pick the part that matters. The face swap is only needed where the face is on screen. Cut those scenes out of your long video.
  2. Split into pieces of up to 60 seconds. Any free editor on your phone or computer can trim a video.
  3. Swap each piece separately with the same selfie, so the face stays consistent.
  4. Join the finished clips in your editor. Each unlocked clip is a separate $2.99 video.

Always preview first: each clip has a free watermarked preview, so you can check the result on your hardest scene before paying for anything.

Tips for Long Source Videos

  • Use one clear selfie for every clip so the face matches across the whole video.
  • Split at scene cuts where possible, so each piece has steady lighting and angle.
  • Skip parts with no visible face. They do not need a swap.
  • Explicit or nude videos are not accepted; uploads are safety-checked automatically.

Tips for the best result

Swap-Video gives its strongest results with a clear, front-facing photo and a video where one face is large in the frame, like a close-up or selfie-style clip. Clips up to 60 seconds work. Adult content is not allowed.
