# Higgsfield Wiki

A plain-English reference for Higgsfield AI — its image and video generators, the face-swap tools, and the models it runs on.

Higgsfield AI is a creative platform for generating images and video from prompts and photos. This wiki documents what each part of it does, which underlying model powers it, and what to expect — written for people evaluating it or already using it.

## Start here

  - [What is Higgsfield](/what-is-higgsfield/) — The product in one page: what it makes, who it is for, how the pieces fit.
  - [Face swap](/face-swap/) — The photo and video face-swap tools, and which one to use.
  - [AI image generator](/ai-image-generator/) — Text-to-image and image-to-image, and the models behind them.
  - [AI video generator](/ai-video-generator/) — Text-to-video and image-to-video generation.
  - [Model reference](/models/) — Seedance, Sora, Veo, Kling, Nano Banana — what each is good at.
  - [Pricing & credits](/pricing/) — How the credit system works and what drives cost.

## How the platform is organised

Higgsfield groups its tools into a few families, and the distinction matters because they behave differently:

  - **Generators** — start from a text prompt (and optionally a reference image) and produce something new. This covers the image generator and the video generator.
  - **Apps** — single-purpose tools that transform something you upload: face swap, headshot generation, upscaling, background removal.
  - **Model pages** — surfaces for specific third-party models the platform runs, such as Seedance 2.0, Sora 2, Veo 3 and Kling.
  - **Plugins** — integrations into existing editing software, including DaVinci Resolve and Photoshop.

Most confusion about Higgsfield comes from mixing these up. A generator invents a new frame from scratch; an app modifies a frame you supplied. If identity preservation matters to you, that difference is the whole story — see [face swap](/face-swap/).

## A note on models

Higgsfield does not train the frontier models it exposes. It provides an interface, presets, and workflow around models built elsewhere — Seedance from ByteDance, Sora from OpenAI, Veo from Google, Kling from Kuaishou, Nano Banana from Google. This is normal for the category and worth knowing when comparing tools: two platforms offering "Sora 2" are offering the same underlying generator, and competing on interface, price, and workflow rather than on output quality.

## Common questions

### Does Higgsfield build its own AI models?

Not the frontier generation models. It runs models from ByteDance, OpenAI, Google and Kuaishou, and builds the interface, presets and workflow around them.
