You can now add a talking animated character to a website or app.
Here is the API that will let you do that.
You take an image and a short voice recording, and it turns them into an avatar you can talk to live.
Atmee launches Atmee v2, a real-time avatar model for live video agents
AIAtmee launches Atmee v2, a real-time avatar model that turns one image and 10 seconds of audio into a live talking character. The company says it supports live video calls, voice-only, and video generation, and claims it runs up to 50x faster and costs 10 to 100 times less than Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0.

After Google acquired my AR startup, I started thinking about the next interface, this time for AI. Text and voice work fine, just like DOS did before the Mac. But nothing’s more intuitive than face to face. After two years of research, today we’re launching Atmee v2: a real-time avatar model that makes live video agents feel truly life-like. • Any character from 1 image + 10s of audio • Contextual expressions, gestures, even interacting with the environment • Live video calls, voice only, or video generation At its core, Atmee v2 is a video foundation model, it can render anything, but it’s built to excel at characters, which is what video models like Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 are mostly used for. In comparison: Atmee v2 • Up to 50x faster • 10-100x cheaper Build tutors, sales coaches, support agents, companions, game characters, even whole living worlds. The interface after text and voice starts today.
