Facy AI Alternative for Occasional Face Swaps: RegiAI Compared

By RegiAI ·

Facy AI is a face swap site with a free photo tier and monthly plans for video. It comes up often when people search for a way to put their face into a clip or a group photo. This article explains what Facy AI offers, who it is a good match for, and when a pay-as-you-go option like RegiAI makes more sense. Everything we say about Facy AI comes from its public home page as of September 2026. We could not open a separate pricing page on the day we checked, so we only list details shown on the home page.

What Facy AI offers

Facy AI is focused on faces first, with a smaller set of general image and video tools around it. On its home page, as of September 2026, it lists:

  • Face tools: photo face swap, video face swap, GIF face swap, multiple face swap in one photo, batch face swap across many photos, and photo head swap.
  • Image tools: upscaling up to 4K, background removal, image-to-image editing and a text-to-image generator.
  • Video tools: image-to-video and text-to-video.
  • An Android app on Google Play.

Its pricing, as shown on the home page, has a free plan and three monthly plans:

  • Free: unlimited image processing at medium quality with slower processing.
  • Basic: $19.99 for one month (shown as reduced from $47.99), 4K image quality, batch image processing, 20 videos per month, videos up to 2 minutes.
  • Plus: $89 for one month, 25 videos per month, videos up to 20 minutes.
  • Pro: $399 for one month, 30 videos per month, videos up to 60 minutes.

The standout here is video length. If you need to swap a face across a full 20-minute or hour-long recording, Facy AI's higher plans are designed for that, and the free plan is generous for still photos. That makes it a reasonable choice for heavy users who work with long video every month, or for anyone who only needs basic photo swaps at medium quality.

When a different tool fits better

Monthly plans work well when you use a tool steadily. They fit less well when your use is uneven. People who look for a Facy AI alternative often describe situations like these:

  • You need three video swaps this month and none next month. Paying for a monthly plan for a handful of short clips can cost more than the clips themselves.
  • Your clips are short. Most memes, reaction clips, birthday messages and social posts are under 10 seconds. You may not need minutes of video allowance.
  • You want full quality on a single photo without a plan. Some people want the best output for one important photo without signing up for a month.
  • You want a head swap and a body swap next to the face swap, all charged from the same balance.
  • You are a developer and need an API to run swaps from your own product.

RegiAI works differently: there are no plans, you add money to a balance when you need it, and each result has a fixed price in dollars.

The RegiAI face tools

RegiAI runs in the browser. You sign in with Google, and every face tool draws from the same pay-as-you-go balance. Here is what each one does and what it costs.

For a single photo: AI Face Swap, $0.10

AI Face Swap puts a face from one photo into another. It costs $0.10 per swap, and it is covered by the free daily generation, so for most people the first photo swap each day costs nothing.

For group photos: Multiple Face Swap, $0.35

Multiple Face Swap changes up to four faces in one group photo in a single run. Upload the group shot and a face for each person, in order from left to right. People you leave out stay as they are. It is handy for team photos, family pictures and group jokes.

When hair matters: AI Head Swap, $0.10

A face swap keeps the hairstyle of the original photo. When the hairstyles are very different, the result can look wrong. AI Head Swap moves the full head, face and hair onto the other body and blends the neck, lighting and skin tone.

New pose or outfit: AI Body Swap, $0.10

AI Body Swap keeps your face and hair and takes the body, pose, outfit and background from a second photo. Think of it as putting yourself into a picture you like, such as a costume, a uniform or a holiday shot.

For short videos: AI Face Swap Video, $0.75

AI Face Swap Video swaps a face into an MP4 or MOV clip of up to 10 seconds (up to 50 MB) and returns a 720p MP4, usually in one to three minutes. This is the clearest difference from Facy AI: RegiAI is built for short clips, and it cannot process a 2-minute or 20-minute video today.

For GIFs: GIF Face Swap, $0.75

GIF Face Swap takes an animated GIF of up to 10 seconds and returns a new GIF with every movement kept, ready to post where GIFs are expected.

For whole-person replacement in a video, not just the face, there is also AI Character Replace at $0.75 (720p) or $1.50 (1080p) per clip of up to 10 seconds.

A quick cost check

A simple way to decide is to estimate what you will actually make in a month. Here are three examples using RegiAI prices:

  • Five short video swaps and a few photo swaps: 5 x $0.75 = $3.75, plus photo swaps at $0.10 each (or free once a day). A $10 top-up covers this with money left over.
  • Twenty 10-second clips: 20 x $0.75 = $15.00. The $25 top-up gives $27 of credit and covers it with room to spare.
  • Two group photos and ten head swaps: 2 x $0.35 + 10 x $0.10 = $1.70.

Your balance does not reset at the end of a month, so unused credit carries over. On the other hand, if you need to swap faces in several long videos every month, a plan built for long video such as Facy AI's will likely serve you better, because RegiAI does not handle clips over 10 seconds.

Step by step: your first face swap on RegiAI

  1. Open the tool you need. Start with AI Face Swap for a photo, since it is free once a day.
  2. Sign in with Google. This takes a few seconds and links your balance and creations to your account.
  3. Add the target image. This is the photo whose face will change.
  4. Add the face photo. Use a sharp, front-facing photo with even light. A face that fills a good part of the frame gives the most accurate match.
  5. Check permission and run it. Make sure you have the right to use these faces, then start the swap.
  6. Save your result. Download it right away. It also stays in your creations for 30 days, and it has no watermark.

For a video or GIF, the steps are the same on AI Face Swap Video or GIF Face Swap, with two extra steps: trim the clip to 10 seconds or less before uploading, and tick the box confirming you have permission to use the face. If anything fails, the charge goes back to your balance.

Consent comes first

Face swap tools are easy to use, which is exactly why a few ground rules matter:

  • Use your own face, or faces of people who have said yes.
  • Do not use swaps to trick people, for example fake statements, fake reviews, fake endorsements or anything presented as real footage.
  • Never create sexual, degrading or harassing content of anyone, and never involve minors.
  • Label your edits as AI when you share them.

These rules apply on RegiAI whichever tool you use, and the video, GIF, group and body swap tools ask you to confirm permission before each run.

Bottom line

Facy AI is a solid option if you work with long videos every month or only need free medium-quality photo swaps. RegiAI is the better fit if your needs are occasional, your clips are short, and you would rather pay a few cents or dollars per result than a monthly fee. You can check every price on the pricing page, and find more guides on the blog.

Frequently asked questions

Is RegiAI cheaper than Facy AI?

It depends on how much you use it. For a few short swaps a month, RegiAI's pay-per-result pricing is usually cheaper than a monthly plan: a video swap is $0.75 and a photo swap is $0.10. For many long videos every month, Facy AI's plans (as of September 2026) are built for that volume and length.

Can RegiAI swap faces in long videos?

No. RegiAI video and GIF face swaps take clips of up to 10 seconds. For longer videos you would need a tool that supports longer clips.

Does RegiAI have a free plan?

There is no plan, but every signed-in account gets one free generation per day on tools priced $0.10 or less, including photo face swap, head swap and body swap.

Will my RegiAI credit expire at the end of the month?

No. There are no monthly allowances. What you top up stays in your balance until you use it.

Does RegiAI support head swap like Facy AI?

Yes. AI Head Swap moves the full head, face and hair onto another body for $0.10. RegiAI also has AI Body Swap, which does the reverse.

Is there a watermark on RegiAI results?

No. RegiAI never adds a watermark, including on free daily generations.

Creations stay in your RegiAI account for 30 days. Download anything you want to keep.
