Get ready to chat! We’ve launched HeyGen Interactive Avatars, optimized for real-time conversations. These avatars can speak and respond instantly, making them ideal for roles like virtual support agents, salespeople, translators, experts, and more for your business.
Think of HeyGen Interactive Avatars as a digital worker, with a realistic and engaging human presence, that you can put to any task you can dream up. Intrigued? Let's dive in!
Interactive Avatar Overview
HeyGen’s Interactive Avatar API is a technology that allows you to initiate ‘streaming’ video sessions in which a HeyGen Avatar interacts and can say text on command in real-time, with minimal delay between a user action and its response.
The most common use case for HeyGen’s Interactive Avatars is connecting them to a Large Language Model (LLM), such as ChatGPT, through code integration. For example, you can initiate an Interactive Avatar video session and send it text from ChatGPT for the Avatar to speak. In this setup, the Interactive Avatar serves as the "body" of the LLM, while ChatGPT functions as the "brain" that powers the interaction.
Developers can easily recreate our interactive demo experience, incorporating custom branding and unique interaction patterns tailored to specific business needs.
