## What it is
FaceFusion is an open-source face manipulation platform for face swapping and lip syncing in images and videos, built in Python with GPU acceleration. It offers a CLI with headless and batch modes plus a web UI, and job management for queued workflows.

## Use cases
- swap a face in a video
- create deepfake images and videos
- lip sync a video to new audio
- batch process face swaps on a folder of files
- run face swap headless in a pipeline
- benchmark face swap performance on GPU

## When to choose
- you need high-quality face swapping or lip sync with active development
- you want CLI, headless, or batch automation of face manipulation jobs
- you have a GPU and want a self-hosted alternative to online deepfake tools

## When to avoid
- you are a beginner uncomfortable with terminal installation and Python environments
- you need a simple one-click mobile app for casual face filters
- your use case requires a permissive license - it uses OpenRAIL-AS with usage restrictions
