Beijing, China - Kling AI, a leading AI-powered creative platform from Kuaishou Technology, today launched an innovative avatar feature that allows users to generate expressive photorealistic avatars using just a single image and an audio clip, dramatically lowering the barriers to high-quality content production.
The tool can animate any image—including human-like and animal characters that are realistic or stylized—into a dynamic avatar with perfectly synchronized lip motion, authentic facial expressions, and body movements that match the audio. The animated avatar also comes with multilingual capabilities, able to sing, speak and rap in Chinese, English, Japanese and Korean.
The launch of Kling AI avatar coincides with a growing generative AI digital avatar market, driven by rising demand for personalised customer experiences across retail, entertainment, and education. According to Gartner predictions, by 2028, 45% of organizations with more than 500 employees will leverage employee AI avatars to expand the capacity of human capital.

Hyper-realistic AI Avatars Powered by Audio & Multimodal Understanding
Kling AI’s avatar excels in animating characters with a focus on three key areas: realistic lip synchronization with audio, facial feature authenticity and emotional expressiveness.
Through a cross-attention mechanism that aligns audio and visuals, enhanced lip-sync training strategies, and refined data processing, the AI-powered avatars can achieve good lip synchronization with audio, even in challenging scenarios such as multilingual speech, singing, or extremely fast dialogue.
Going beyond standard sync, users can dictate specific emotions and subtle facial motions via text prompts, e.g., “speaking in tears with pity”. Thanks to Kling AI’s deep integration of multimodal understanding models with video models, the generated content closely aligns with the narrative and emotional flows, bringing the avatars to life with great realism.
The platform also combines professional-grade quality with affordability. Brands and creators can produce custom avatars at up to 1080p resolution and 48FPS frame rate, achieving studio-quality clarity and smoothness for as low as $1 per minute—a fraction of traditional production costs.

An All-in-One Platform for Professional Content Creation
To make it easy for users from all industries to tap into the service, Kling AI builds a one-stop platform to enable brands and content creators generate professional-grade videos with ease.
Users can select from an extensive library of pre-built avatars tailored for use cases like e-commerce livestreaming, news anchoring, and podcasts, or create fully customized avatars by specifying gender, age, skin tone, and other attributes.
The platform offers extensive creative control, allowing users to generate not just the avatar, but also the video’s setting, camera movements, backdrop, and props in accordance with their needs, enabling precise customization and fast iteration.
Kling AI is gradually opening up access to its AI avatar feature. The launch came as Kling AI has taken a lead in commercialization among video generation models. According to its latest data, Kling AI's monthly subscription bookings exceeded RMB100 million ever since April this year, leading video generation models globally in both revenue growth and overall revenue scale.
In the second quarter of 2025, revenue from Kling AI surpassed RMB 250 million, a sharp rise from RMB 150 million in revenue recorded in the first quarter of 2025.
