Features
- Person, object, and background masks
- Keyframe plus a target image
- Start from an uploaded or generated clip
- V6 generation with native audio
VidMage puts one still on the clip you already hold. PixVerse Swap still needs a keyframe mask. Open VidMage when those two files are enough.
Swap Face Now
PixVerse is an AI video platform that replaces a person, object, or background in a clip through Swap. Swap asks for a video, a keyframe, a mask, and a target image. The source clip can be uploaded or generated. Consumer credits and API credits sit on separate wallets.
While PixVerse Swap uses a keyframe mask plus a target image, VidMage uses the talking clip and one still. Open VidMage when those two files are the next job.
What it does, where it wins, where it falls short.

Swap output cap, credit burn, upload length, and the 10 minute wait.
PixVerse Swap tables stop at 720p, whereas VidMage paid video lists 4K. V6 generation can print 1080p. That is a generate path, not the Swap path. Open VidMage when the paid talking clip should list 4K.
PixVerse is different from VidMage because API Swap bills 9 to 12 credits a second and the mask costs 2 credits, however VidMage bills 1 credit a talking second. Those wallets do not mix. Open VidMage when the next second should cost one credit.
PixVerse Swap uploads stop at 30 seconds, 50MB, and 1920. Paid VidMage video lists 300 seconds, 1024MB, and 4K on a filmed clip. Free VidMage video is 20 seconds a day. Open VidMage when the talking take runs past that Swap cap.
PixVerse can release concurrency after a wait over 10 minutes without a refund. VidMage bills the printed second after the face lands. Open VidMage when you want the meter tied to the finished second, not the wait.
Checked 28 Aug 2026 from public rate cards. VidMage shows a Web month. PixVerse shows API Swap packs. Consumer Web dollars sit behind login.
A VidMage Web cycle is 400 credits, which maps to 400 stills or 400 swapped seconds for $14.99. PixVerse API lists $10 for 1,000 credits and Essential at $100 for 15,000 credits. Those are different surfaces.
Register wall, training license, and hosted-file clock.
PixVerse daily free credits start after you register. Unlike PixVerse, VidMage opens 15 stills, 20 video seconds, and 2 GIFs without a sign-up.
PixVerse Privacy grants a training license on Information Content unless you opt out. VidMage does not train on your photos, videos, or prompts.
PixVerse has no printed two-hour wipe. VidMage deletes Web uploads within 2 hours.
Land two files, not a person mask plus a prompt retry.
Stop choosing person, object, or background on a PixVerse keyframe. The VidMage job is a finished clip plus a still.
Use the MP4 you filmed, not a V6 generate with native audio. Free daily video is 20 seconds. Paid clips can run longer.
Set the same source face you would have pasted as a Swap target. You do not draw a person mask first.
Save the preview from the VidMage desk. Pocket the file when the identity holds.
