Lucy 2.6 is Decart’s live video editing model, released on November 5, 2026. It transforms a video stream using written instructions, an image reference, or both. This version focuses on reference detail for characters, clothing and products, while the source performance continues.
Official launch montage · Includes model examples, source footage and editorial titles.
Guide a character change with a reference rather than describing every feature from memory. The paired frames show the same room and performance before and after a stylized character edit. Judge the motion as well as the still: an attractive face in one frame does not establish consistency throughout a stream.
Decart highlights closer handling of complex clothing. In the launch demonstration, layers and fabric detail remain the subject of the shot. For a clothing presentation, check the silhouette, neckline, sleeves and moving folds against the reference. A virtual try-on is a visual preview; it does not establish physical fit or sizing.
A product reference can guide an item held by the presenter or placed in the set. The handheld-console comparison is useful because its shape, casing and controls are easy to inspect. Check the object as the hand changes angle, including occlusion, reflections and the points where fingers meet its surface.
A background edit changes the context without requiring a new performance. Here the room becomes a photography studio. Brief the setting clearly, then inspect hair edges, lighting direction and objects near the presenter. The paired frames show the requested change; watch the full result to judge the edges in motion.
A style change can turn the same source movement into a graphic treatment. Compare the face, clothing and room across several moments before choosing a look. Keep a visual style appropriate to the story rather than adding strong colour simply to make the frame busier.
The object-insertion example places a statue behind the host. A clear location makes the requested change easy to review. Look at scale, contact with the floor and interruptions when the presenter moves in front of it. Check unrequested parts of the scene as carefully as the new object.

This is a provider-described version comparison, not a same-input benchmark performed by Pexo. Performance and availability depend on the selected service and connection.
Plan where the product appears and how the host handles it. Review shape and material while the item moves, rather than approving one frame.
Choose a character with readable facial features. Keep a reference visible during review and inspect expressions throughout the performance.
Try a different background or object placement for the same host. Compare the revised set with the original before using it publicly.
Continue a broader creative idea with Pexo’s video workflows.
Lucy 2.6 is Decart’s live video editing model, announced on November 5, 2026. It follows written instructions and reference images to transform an ongoing video stream.
The workflow described here edits incoming video. The source supplies the performance and scene; text and optional references direct the transformation. This differs from creating an unrelated clip from text alone.
Decart emphasizes closer reference following for characters, clothing and products. The launch also shows background changes, style changes, effects and object edits. The provider says the new version costs the same as 2.5 and is now the lucy-latest default.
No guarantee is established by these examples. Review details across the stream, especially hands, object boundaries, facial motion and clothing. A useful reference can guide an edit while the result still needs inspection.
The model is available on the Decart platform, and fal lists a Lucy 2.6 realtime endpoint. Use the chosen platform’s current access and pricing information. Demo access, stream setup and API integration are separate steps.
