About Hug Your Younger Self

Hug Your Younger Self is an independent web app, operated by VIFE Inc., that turns a childhood photo and a recent photo of the same person into a short AI video of the adult hugging their younger self. We run the model for you, show the price before every video and refund failed ones.

What we do

Upload a childhood photo and a recent photo of you, or one picture of both, describe a place and download an MP4. Every video follows the same instruction: the adult and the child are the same person; keep both faces, hair and clothes as in the photos; the adult kneels or bends down and gives the child a warm hug, both smiling.

The model

Videos are generated by a commercial AI video model through a model API. Your photos and words are sent to the model provider only to make your videos.

Pricing and the free first video

Videos cost 30 credits per second, shown before you make each one. The first 5-second video is free for a new account, once per network (an IPv4 address or IPv6 /64) every 30 days. After that, credits come from a one-time pack or a monthly plan, payments are processed by Stripe, and failed videos are refunded automatically.

AI-generated results

Every video is AI-generated from your photos; it is not real footage. You must have the right to use every photo you upload; the childhood photo should be your own, or used with the person's permission.
