Context

About D-ID

D-ID is an AI video avatar platform that animates still photos into talking head videos from text scripts — enabling APAC content teams, e-learning producers, and enterprise communicators to create video content featuring realistic digital presenters without video production, cameras, or on-camera talent scheduling. APAC teams use D-ID for video narration, training content, personalized video outreach, and conversational AI avatar products.

D-ID's Creative Reality Studio turns a single headshot or stock photo into a speaking avatar video by lip-syncing the AI-generated or uploaded audio to the image — APAC HR teams produce onboarding training videos featuring company spokespeople without scheduling recording sessions; APAC marketing teams create product explainer videos in multiple APAC languages from a single avatar with different TTS audio tracks.

D-ID's Agents product enables real-time conversational AI avatars — APAC developers embed an interactive AI avatar into web applications that listens to user speech, processes it through a connected LLM, and responds with a synchronized speaking avatar face. APAC customer service applications, educational tutoring products, and reception kiosks use D-ID Agents to create human-like AI interaction experiences with a visual presence that text chatbots cannot provide.

D-ID's API enables APAC programmatic video generation — when an APAC CRM records a new high-value lead, the sales system can automatically generate a personalized video introduction from the account executive's photo and a customized script, delivering a video email before a human has drafted a message. APAC personalized video at scale uses D-ID's API to generate hundreds of custom videos from a single template.
