# Webcam face swap in the browser: how LiveFaceSwapVideo works
Most face swap tools render a clip and make you wait, and local tools usually need a powerful GPU and a long setup. LiveFaceSwapVideo takes a different route: the swap runs live, on your own webcam, while you watch.

# Three steps
- Upload one clear reference portrait — your own face, or one you have explicit permission to use.
- Allow camera access in the browser.
- The cloud AI rewrites each frame as you move, talk or change the light, and streams the result back.
That is the whole idea behind a webcam face swap in the browser: no install, no graphics card, just a camera, a stable connection and a supported browser.
# More than a face swap
The same studio has two more live modes:
- Live Try-On — keep your face and posture, change the clothes on camera.
- Live Restyle — redraw the feed as anime, illustration or another look.
Processing runs in the cloud on realtime models (Lucy 2.5 and XMAX 2.0) over an encrypted WebRTC connection; the camera feed and the output are not recorded or stored.
# Using it in OBS, Zoom or Meet
A free Windows 11 desktop app adds a system virtual camera, LiveFaceSwapVideo Camera, so the live output can be picked as a camera in OBS Studio, Streamlabs, Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Discord and similar apps. A macOS version is coming soon.
# Pricing and rules
New accounts get 100 free credits; paid plans start at $14.90/month. The service is consent-first: only your own face or a portrait you are authorized to use — no public figures and no minors.
