I’m super excited to share Deep-Live-Cam, an open-source AI tool I came across while exploring creative tech for VTubing and live streaming. Whether you want to create a full-blown virtual persona or swap faces for fun, this tool makes it effortless.


This is how Deep-Live-Cam stands out:

--> Real-time face & avatar swapping

--> Smooth performance even on modest hardware

--> Privacy-first: built-in safety & ethical use guidelines

--> Open-source for full transparency + community-driven innovation


It’s perfect for creators, VTubers, educators, streamers, or anyone who wants to explore digital identity in new, exciting ways.

Comment highlights

Having this system wide is a time saving. Still, I'd love the option to add voice to text input as well.

Nice, saving it. What are the recommended requirements to run this locally?

Hehe! It's super interesting by also know it's a huge niche. Hope many of them can take the most of this tool. Wish you all the best!

What hardware specs do I need to run this smoothly? Will it work on mid-range setups or does it require a high-end GPU?

This looks incredibly fun and practical — the real-time swapping with performance optimizations + privacy safeguards makes Deep-Live-Cam a standout. It’s rare to see something open-source in this space that’s also this creator-friendly.


I’m especially curious how educators or virtual presenters might adapt this — beyond entertainment, it seems like a solid tool for accessibility or engagement in remote environments.


Great questions too — I’d also love to know if motion tracking via webcam or audio lip-sync is on the roadmap. And for contributors: is there a preferred stack or workflow for adding new avatar types?


Anyone tried this with OBS or in a Zoom setting yet?

Bookmarking this one – maybe will use it for YouTube in the future.

P.S.: Bonus points for a detailed tutorial on installing! :)
