Tavus builds personified AI agents it calls PALs. A PAL is an AI with a face, a voice and a personality that can see the person it is talking to, hear tone and pauses, and respond in real time over live video. The company says it is an AI research lab working on what it calls human computing, where using a computer feels like talking to a person.

PALs can be given a role, a knowledge base and memory, so they remember earlier conversations and answer from the documents they are given. The site says they can also present slide decks, show generated charts and forms on screen, join Zoom, Google Meet or Teams calls as a participant, and open a website in a browser to guide a user through it.

The product is offered in three ways. PAL Maker is a no-code tool where you describe a role, pick a face and add a knowledge base, then launch it. The Developer API lets engineers build real-time conversational video into their own product. Enterprise Solutions are bespoke, fully managed deployments that Tavus designs, builds and tunes for a customer.

The site lists customer examples, including a sales development agent built by Salesforce, a sales role-play coach built by Orum, and a clinical education consultant built by Med Learning Group. These are presented as case studies on the company's own page.

The pricing page lists a free developer plan with 25 minutes of conversational video, a Starter plan at $59 a month, a Growth plan at $397 a month, and a custom Enterprise plan. Paid plans add minutes, replica training, concurrent streams and, on Enterprise, white-labelling and SLAs. Additional conversational video minutes are billed pay as you go. The consumer PALs plans are listed at $0, $20 and $50 a month.

The company's own models are named Sparrow for turn-taking, Phoenix for rendering, Raven for perception and Griffin, which is in preview. The site says it has more than 150,000 developers.
