Providers

This model is hosted by one provider. OpenRouter forwards every request to it directly — no routing decisions to make.

Performance

Throughput is how fast the model writes (tokens per second — higher is better). Latency is total round-trip time (lower is better). TTFT is time-to-first-token — how long before you see anything appear (lower is better).

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

Apps

Public apps that send the most traffic to this model. Good signal for what real production workloads look like — and a hint at which use cases this model is best suited for.

Activity

Token volume and request traffic to this model over time.

API

Drop-in code to call this model. OpenRouter's API is OpenAI-compatible — most SDKs work by just swapping the base URL. The only thing that changes between models is the model slug below.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and customization options.

HeyGen Video

HeyGen Video is a general-purpose video generation model from HeyGen. It renders short clips with synthesized audio (dialogue, ambience, and sound effects) in a single call, working from a text prompt, from a first-frame image, or from a set of image, video, and audio references that the prompt can address directly. It is aimed at short-form business video with a lot of motion in frame: brand moments, product and equipment demos, and training or onboarding content.

It is not an avatar product. Unlike HeyGen's Avatar IV and Video Agent, there is no talking-head, script, or lip-sync step; the prompt and references drive the whole scene.

Videofrom $0.01/second
Avatar IV

HeyGen: Avatar IV is an image-to-video model that animates a single photo into an expressive, lip-synced talking-head video. Rather than only matching mouth shapes to words, it interprets the vocal tone, rhythm, and emotion of the audio to drive head motion, facial expression, and gestures, producing output at up to 1080p.

The spoken audio comes from one of two inputs: a text script, which the model voices with HeyGen text-to-speech, or a supplied audio track, which the image is lip-synced to directly. Passthrough parameters let you choose a voice, tune voice settings, set expressiveness, prompt specific motion, replace or remove the background, add captions, and title the video.
