The short answer
The AI hug generator turns two photos into a short video of two people sharing a warm, natural hug. They stand face to face in a cozy living room with soft window light, step toward each other, hug and then look at each other with affection. Use it for a friend, a family member or someone you miss. Add one clear photo of each person, sign in, check the credit cost and confirm. You get a silent vertical 9:16 MP4 of about 10 seconds.

How to make it
- 1
Open the AI Hug maker
Start in the maker at the top of this page. This effect needs two photos, one per person, and the maker shows whether it is open for new videos right now.
- 2
Add one photo per person
Person 1 appears on the left and Person 2 on the right. You can choose both photos on your device before you sign in: they stay in your browser for up to 24 hours and upload only after you sign in.
- 3
Sign in, check and confirm
Sign in and check that each photo sits in the right slot. The credit cost and length of this attempt are shown before you confirm, and nothing is charged until you do. You also confirm that both people are adults who agreed to be included and that you have the right to use both photos.
- 4
Wait for generation and review
A still frame of you both standing face to face in the living room is generated first, then animated into the hug. The result goes through an automated safety check, and some results also get a short human review, usually within a day.

Download and keep it
Download the MP4 from your history under My videos once it is ready. Results are kept for 30 days, so save a copy. The clip is silent, so add audio you have the rights to use if you share it.
What you get
- Two people from two photos, one adult per photo: Person 1 on the left, Person 2 on the right.
- A cozy living room with soft, warm window light and a sofa, lamp and plants softly out of focus behind you.
- A warm, natural hug: the two of you step toward each other, wrap your arms around each other, close your eyes with a gentle smile, then ease back and look at each other.
- A real-life, photorealistic look with natural colors and a steady camera at eye level.
- A silent vertical 9:16 MP4 of about 10 seconds by default, with no music, ready for audio you have the rights to use.
- A download in your history that stays available for 30 days after the video is ready.
Photo tips
- Use one adult per photo. Crop out anyone else, and skip group photos and collages.
- Pick a sharp photo with the whole face visible and turned toward the camera, in soft, even light.
- Head-to-waist or full-body photos work best, because the hug needs shoulders and arms to look natural.
- Try to use two photos with similar sharpness and light. An older, softer photo next to a crisp new one can make the pair look mismatched.
- Avoid sunglasses, masks, hats that shade the eyes and heavy beauty filters.
- Use JPEG, PNG, WebP or AVIF files under 10 MB, and only photos you own or have the right to use.
Good to know
This is an AI-generated scene, not a recording, and results vary from one attempt to the next. Faces, hands and movement can differ from your photos, and exact likeness is not guaranteed. A close hug is hard for AI: arms can overlap oddly, hands can look wrong and the two faces can occasionally blend, so watch the whole clip before you share it. Height difference, posture and clothing are guided by the photos but not copied exactly. The living room, light and camera are fixed, and the effect makes one hug between two adults; it can't add a third person or use a childhood photo.
Before you create
What is an AI hug video?
It's a short clip, popular on TikTok and Instagram Reels, in which two people from two separate photos appear together and share a hug. This AI hug generator makes that clip from your photos, with a warm, real-life look in a cozy living room, and with nothing to film.
How do I make an AI hug video?
Open the maker above and add one clear photo of each person. Sign in, check that each photo is in the right slot, review the credit cost and confirm. After generation and the safety check, download the MP4 from your history. The maker also shows whether the effect is open right now.
Can I make a hug with a loved one who has passed away?
Yes, many people use it to see a hug with someone they miss. Please use a photo you have the right to use, such as your own family photo, taken when the person was an adult. Before you confirm you are asked to state that everyone pictured is an adult, agreed to be included and that you may use the photos, so continue only if you can honestly say so, and think about how close family may feel before you share it.
Who can I hug in the video?
A friend, a partner, a family member or someone you miss, as long as both people are adults (18+) and you have the right to use both photos. Photos of celebrities, public figures and anyone under 18 are not allowed, and you should never make a hug video of someone who would not want it.
Can I use a childhood photo or hug my younger self?
No. Every photo must show an adult, so childhood photos and photos of minors are not allowed, even of yourself. Use a photo of each person as an adult.
Do I need an app, a CapCut template or a prompt?
No. It runs in your web browser on a phone or computer, so there's nothing to install. There's no CapCut template to download and no prompt to write: the room, the light and the hug are already set. You add two photos, check the cost and confirm.
Can both people be in the same photo?
No. This effect needs exactly two photos, one per person, so each identity stays distinct. If you only have a photo of you together, crop each person into their own photo; a sharp crop works better than a group shot.
Does the hug video have sound?
No. The clip is silent: no music, voice or sound effects are included. If you share it, you can add audio you have the rights to use, such as a sound the platform makes available to your account.
How long is the video, and how do I keep it?
Each clip runs about 10 seconds by default and comes as a vertical 9:16 MP4. The exact length is shown with the credit cost before you confirm. Results stay in your history for 30 days, so download a copy to keep. If you post it, use the platform label for AI-generated content where asked.
How much does the AI hug generator cost?
The credit cost is shown before you confirm, so you know it before anything is charged. Credits come in one-time packs that never expire, or in an optional monthly or yearly plan. If a confirmed generation fails, the credits charged for that attempt are returned once. You can request a refund of unused paid credits within 168 hours of payment.
What happens if the generation fails?
A confirmed failure, including a result blocked by the safety check, returns the credits charged for that attempt once. If your connection drops while you submit, use the recover option instead of starting over; it checks the same request without a second charge. For a finished clip that looks off, try sharper, front-facing photos.
