Fast self recorded avatar creation
Create an instant avatar using a short self recording from your phone or webcam. The system captures your facial structure, posture, and natural presence quickly to create a custom avatar that reflects your identity. This allows you to begin generating avatar-driven videos without complex setup or equipment, making it easy to create a custom avatar.

Natural facial movement and expression
Instant avatars generate realistic facial motion while speaking your script. Subtle head movement, eye contact, and expressions are preserved to avoid a stiff or artificial appearance in the custom avatar. This helps viewers feel a real human connection while watching.

Voice aligned speech delivery
Your avatar delivers scripts with clear, natural sounding speech that matches visual timing. Pronunciation and pacing are optimized for easy comprehension, especially when using a talking avatar. This creates a smooth viewing experience without manual voice editing, allowing for the use of an AI avatar in presentations.

Script updates without re-recording
When information changes, simply edit the script and regenerate the video. Your avatar remains the same while the message updates instantly. This removes the need for reshoots or repeated recordings.
