Our take
Tavus is an AI video cloning tool that uses synthetic media, more popularly known as ‘deepfakes’, for companies to produce customizable and scalable content. The platform enables businesses to create videos for marketing, outreach, sales, recruiting and more while tailoring them to specific individuals.
Other players in the field include Loom and Vidyard, both of which have proven the value of personalised videos for businesses, but whose services take time. Tavus is scalable as its platform can generate thousands of personalised videos in the time it would take to record just one. The videos generated currently come with imperfections, notably the lip-syncing and video-cloning, which Tavus tenuously claims create more engaging content.
Synthetic media was called upon heavily during the pandemic, as companies created AI-copilots that could host conferences and pitches remotely, so it will be interesting to see how this industry continues to grow as time goes on. Tavus is young, but is expanding quickly with new products like its Phoenix-3 and Raven-0 models, having been backed by Sequoia and Y Combinator, amongst other top firms. Off the back of 2024 Series A funding, it has the means to accelerate development and growth.
