About Prototipal
Prototipal is a hosted AI generation platform for creators and brands, available as a web app and through an API. It puts video models such as Kling 2.1, Sora 2, Hailuo, Seedance and Veo 3.1 Fast, and image models such as FLUX Kontext Max, Imagen 4 Fast, Ideogram v3 Turbo and Nano Banana Pro, in one workspace with a single credit balance.
Its motion library has 28 cinematic camera presets, such as dolly, crash zoom and bullet time, that apply to a video model in one click. A Talent feature saves two to eight reference photos of a person and places them in scenes from a prompt without LoRA training. A set of 32 generator apps covers tasks such as face swap, transitions and AI stylist, and a Cinema Studio for storyboard-to-4K production is marked as coming soon. Listed use cases include AI influencers, ads, headshots, avatars and UGC.
