Created with AI, based on recent reviews
Magic Hour is a browser-based AI platform for transforming existing photos and videos and creating new video, image, and audio content. Founded in 2023 by Runbo Li and David Hu, its core transformation tools include face swap, lip sync, talking photos, and character replacement. Creators can edit and reuse their own media, then send compatible outputs directly into editing, animation, lip sync, or upscaling without downloading and re-uploading files between supported tools. Templates provide starting prompts and settings, while saved characters and visual references can be reused in supported workflows. Selected public tools can be tried without creating an account or entering a credit card. Free allowances vary by tool. The signed-in Create workspace uses account credits and shows the estimated cost for the selected settings before generation. Unused credits roll over and never expire, including after subscription cancellation. One-time credit packs are available without a subscription and include commercial use and watermark-free exports under Magic Hour's terms. Subscriptions add benefits such as higher resolutions, faster queues, larger uploads, and greater concurrency. Magic Hour serves creators, marketers, agencies, production teams, and developers. The website and supported API workflows use the same account and prepaid credit balance. Model availability, credit costs, and output limits vary by tool and plan. Magic Hour does not use customer prompts, uploads, or generated outputs to train AI models. This policy covers free and paid accounts, including API use.

Great User Experience, Great Overall. I've used Magic Hour for a bit over a year now and it's genuinely one of the best products I've used as a consumer and developer. Everything is simple to understand, and I can use the best tools to make what I want. Specifically, I really liked the face-swap tool as I was playing around with some UGC ideas.

I've been using the models to build things such as UGC ads, image upscaling, lip syncing, and honestly it has done the job really well. The prompts are user friendly and doesn't take much tuning to create a solid video/image. I like the fact it has multiple models that I can iterate over, such as Kling, LTX, Nano Banana, etc. Overall, I am very pleased with the product and want to try more features!

I use quite a few features, including image to video, image editor, text to video, and more.
The images and videos I generate consistently meet my expectations based on the prompts I provide, and the quality is really good. Whenever I encounter an issue, the support team responds quickly and is always willing to help resolve it. The website has a modern, user-friendly interface. I've been using Magic Hour for over a year, and I've seen the models get better, new features and tools make things easier, and generation times get much faster. The team has also made the website look better and much easier to navigate.
Overall, it's been a great experience using this platform

I've been using Magic Hour to make Dante edits on TikTok and I was really surprised with the output. I've used text to video, voice generator, and lip sync for my production and it's been really convenient. If I have any advice to any else trying their product, it'd be to be careful about prompts, especially with generating videos. I explained what I wanted to chat and had it come up with detailed prompts so be as specific as possible. Another piece of advice I'd give is to make your reference images or whatever else fairly high quality. Overall, I really like their service, would defo recommend.

The platform is super easy to use and navigate, has a really nice interface as well. I barely had issues with generation, and the various things that Magic Hour can do is amazing for anything you want to create! I think the only issue I had was that I had to generate some things a few times to get what I specifically wanted.

Magic hour is an exceptional application for generating images and videos. You get the opportunity to use powerful models that are prompt-accurate, and their API is amazing for developers who want to do something with Magic Hour’s capabilities. Magic hour also has plans that are amazing for people who do not want to overspend on image/video generation. I’d recommend also joining the Magic hour discord server to check out some of the amazing discussions happening on it.

i have been using magic hour’s photo colorizer and image tools on a lot of photos. the colors look natural, the original detail stays sharp, and upload and download are really simple.

Trialed this for 1 day and immediately asked to cancel subscription. I attempted to create only 1 working video to use for marketing. After 12+ attempts and repeatedly poor quality, I messaged the company to cancel. Took them days to reply, and finally, after multiple follow-ups, they said I cannot get a refund because I used like 1-2% of their credits for the year to try and generate 1 usable video. Mouths don't sync. glitchy. Subtitle errors in spelling/grammar. Very noticeably AI. Overall poor user experience and do not recommend. I was unable to use anything generated by this platform, and I am experienced in AI and editing.

I'm using the talking picture and it's really well done plus the cost for the whole package is very reasonable. I also like the customer service, absolutely top class, very rear quality these days.
I do project based work so I do look forward to keep testing the other available services.

Audio to video have been a great experience. I wish the software could create a better image of me when I tried to Audio to video with a photo of me it changed my appearance totally. But overall I'm pretty happy with this program.

Exceptional costumer service! Open to suggestions and feedback. Unexpected follow ups!

Magic Hour AI is easy to use and makes bringing creative ideas to life feel straightforward. I really like how versatile it is, with plenty of ways to experiment with different styles and types of content. The results have been consistently impressive, and I’ve enjoyed seeing what I can create with it. Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for an approachable tool for creating AI visuals!

This is a bait and switch company. I reached out to get an explanation and I spoke with some idiot named runbo.
What the website claims they can do and what they actually do is tremendously different. Not in a good way.
If you are looking to create videos, avoid this fly by night operation.

I'm 62 years old, visually impaired, and have spent much of my life working in creative fields. I have to say, Magic Hour has been nothing short of extraordinary!
As someone with significant vision loss, I find Magic Hour incredibly easy to use, packed with amazing features, and the end results are beyond impressive.
I'm confused about their rating, and I can only assume that, in the highly competitive AI field, competitors leave negative reviews to make competitors look bad.
Over the years, I have learned to use many software programs; I can't imagine learning many more, but Magic Hour has, without a doubt, made my life better.
Don't believe the reviews; take a chance, and I promise you will be thrilled with the outcome.

I signed up and supposedly received 400 credits—but they vanished into thin air just as quickly as I had supposedly acquired them. All it kept saying was "Add 100 credits and generate." But absolutely nothing was generated. It wasn't even clear whether the tool was actually generating or waiting for more credits. I've never tried a more deceptive and useless tool than this one. I guess it’s just about stealing and misusing data. Same old story.

The voice generator and voice cloner are quick, simple, and sound natural. I was making great voiceovers within minutes of starting. Worth trying, especially with the free plan.
