Realtime visual agents
Lifelike avatars that run anywhere.
API Platform
Generate, manage, and animate agents over REST — dynamics, embedding, and files from one API.
Learn more →CLI
Run a realtime visual agent from a single command — cloud or fully on-device, no GPU required.
Learn more →Apps SDK
Embed lifelike agents natively — Python, Swift, Android, and the browser, all on one engine.
Learn more →Essence & Expression
Start with Essence; reach for Expression when you need to animate any face.
Essence
Default · on-deviceA pre-built identity in a portable .imx — runs in realtime on CPU, Apple Silicon, and the browser (WASM). Lowest cost, works offline.
Learn more →Expression
Animate any faceTurns any portrait into an expressive, talking agent at runtime with AI facial dynamics. Runs on a GPU or recent Apple Silicon.

}Edit, then launch a live agent
Pick an agent and model — the embed code updates live. Hit Launch to talk to it, right here.
Drop an agent into any site
One line of HTML adds a live agent — pick a corner gadget or a full chat widget, then try both right here.
<!-- Corner gadget — one line -->

</script>A draggable, resizable avatar bubble in the corner — tap to talk (voice & video). Best for a quick, ambient presence.
<!-- Chat widget — one line -->
<script
src="https://www.bithuman.ai/bithuman-chat-widget-v5.js"
data-agent-url="https://bithuman.ai/A78WKV4515">
</script>A full support-chat experience (the Ivoclar style) — text, voice, and video, with suggested questions and a welcome message. Best for help & sales.
