Frequently Asked Questions

What is Janus?

Janus is a real-time character animation platform that lets you become any character using just your webcam. Your avatar is rendered directly in your browser, driven by your facial expressions and movements. Use it on Discord, Zoom, Twitch, YouTube, and more — no special hardware or setup required.

How does Janus work?

Janus generates a 3D avatar from a photo or prompt, then renders it directly in your browser. Your webcam tracks your facial expressions and movements, animating the avatar in real-time at 1080p+. No cloud servers are needed during streaming — everything runs locally on your device.

What platforms does Janus work with?

Janus works with all major streaming and video conferencing platforms including Discord, Twitch, YouTube, Zoom, Google Meet, OBS Studio, and any application that supports virtual cameras.

Do I need special equipment or hardware?

No special equipment is needed! All you need is a standard webcam and microphone. Janus works with any webcam, including built-in laptop cameras.

Do you store my photos?

No. We don't store the photos you upload to generate the avatars. We only send them to our image generation providers for processing.

Is Janus free to use?

Janus offers a free tier with credits to get you started and unlimited streaming time. You only pay for avatar creation and video generation — streaming is always free with no time limits.

How does Janus handle my privacy and data?

Your privacy is our priority. All facial tracking happens in real-time and we don't store your webcam footage. We only process the data needed to animate your character during your active session.

What are the technical requirements?

Janus works best with a modern computer and a recent version of Chrome or a Chromium-based browser. A webcam with at least 720p resolution will give you the best results.

Does Janus work on Mac?

Yes! Janus works perfectly on Mac (macOS), including MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, and Mac Studio.
