What is Webhook for AI Video?

How it works

Webhooks allow your application to be notified when a video generation is complete rather than repeatedly checking (polling) for the result. You provide a callback URL when submitting a generation request, and the AI service sends the result to that URL when it is ready. This is more efficient than polling and is essential for production pipelines that process many generations concurrently. Webhook-based workflows are the standard for professional API integrations because they reduce unnecessary network traffic and enable event-driven architectures where downstream processes (quality checking, delivery, notification) trigger automatically when generation completes.
