Anam is part of the relaunched AI Startup Pack by Fin. We're in good company, alongside @ElevenLabs, @Cloudflare, @incident_io, @Attio, and more. Build with interactive avatars that respond in real time, look realistic, and deploy via API. No upfront cost for 7 months.

Today we're releasing cara-3, our latest face-generation model. In an independent blind study, participants preferred Anam's interactive avatars over other providers across every metric measured. But why do we care about avatars to begin with? https://t.co/e4RhlhIAN9

We're open sourcing the backbone to our data pipeline. It's called Metaxy and it solves some of the hardest parts of a modern, scalable pipeline. At Anam, we’re building a platform for real-time avatars. One of the core components powering our product is our own video generation

Anam now has a Python SDK https://t.co/X2hqHb0WmR What's in the box? - webrtc media handling; connect and get synced audio/video frames back - full pipeline (STT → LLM → TTS → Face) or bring your own components - live transcriptions from user and avatar, useful for captions

https://t.co/8Dyxda6jhk is still the best primer on voice agents i know of. Was really useful for me when initially building out our platform. eg seeing the latency breakdown in this image is humbling. You have such a limited budget to get sub second responses once you factor in

.@ManusAI has gotten real good. If you haven't tried in a while have another go. Like if claude code + loveable had a baby. - seems to be an emphasis on building useful rather than flashy: without asking for it each feature is tested, while also testing for regressions across

.@livekit x Anam is now production-ready. As an ex of what's possible @stukennedydev wired up Gemini Live tool-calling, screensharing, and our avatars to create a fully functional website assistant who can see your screen and take browser actions. Code:
