Blogic at SXSW in Texas: Meeting the HeyGen team

Our Blogic representatives recently attended the SXSW festival in Texas, where technology, creativity and trends from around the world come together. During this event, they were lucky enough to meet Joshua X, the founder of Heygen, and his team. You may already be familiar with this platform without knowing it. In fact, their technology is popping up more and more in the fields of marketing, education and corporate communication.

Heygen: AI avatars that can speak and react convincingly

Imagine you are watching a video in which an expert explains a complex concept step by step. He speaks fluently, his facial expressions are precise and his intonation is perfect. But in reality, although the expert was standing in front of the camera, he may never have said what he is saying. It is a digital avatar.

Heygen is a platform for creating AI avatars that are visually realistic and capable of fluent communication. It is used in marketing, education, customer support and in companies that want to automate internal processes. We use this technology ourselves and also help our clients to use it.

Imagine a corporate training course, for example. Instead of long manuals, you can simply create a video in which an avatar conveys the information clearly and comprehensibly. What if the training content changes? Just edit the text and the avatar adapts immediately without you having to re-record the video. What's more, it can even speak in a different language, even if the real trainer doesn't speak that language.

Meeting Joshua X: When avatar meets reality

Joshua X is a visionary. We spoke to him and his team about the future of digital avatars and how AI will change customer communication and internal training. And about what it's like to see your own digital twin in action.

The future of AI avatars is already here. And we're happy to be a part of it.

Wondering how an AI avatar could help your business too? We'd love to talk to you about it!
