Meet Phoenix, our frontier Replica model
Phoenix-3 is the first replica model to deliver full-face rendering with dynamic emotion control, capturing every micro-expression, movement, and emotion.
Phoenix-3 beta
Expression is more than just movement—it’s meaning. A raised eyebrow, a fleeting smirk, the way lips subtly tighten before speaking—these micro-expressions shape every conversation. When these cues are missing, something feels off. The words may be right, but the message is not.
Nearly all AI avatars fail because they don’t understand this nuance. They rely on GANs or NeRF-based models that animate in pieces—generating lips separately from the rest of the face, leading to unnatural expressions, mismatched emotions, and uncanny valley eye contact. A disconnect that breaks immersion and trust.
Phoenix-3 changes that. It brings AI to life by mastering implicit human communication—rendering every muscle shift, micro-expression, and emotional nuance with unmatched accuracy. Using a breakthrough Gaussian diffusion technique, it generating every pixel to drive real, dynamic emotion that evolves fluidly with the conversation.
With industry-leading lip sync and identity preservation, Phoenix-3 makes AI feel unmistakably human. Combining studio-grade fidelity with real-time performance, it sets a new benchmark for AI-driven expression—delivering pixel-perfect resolution that mirrors human presence with stunning accuracy.
For the first time, AI doesn’t just mimic expression—it feels alive
"Phoenix-3 is the first AI rendering model that gets everything right—full-face animation, seamless identity preservation, and real emotional nuance. It’s high-fidelity, real-time model with no shortcuts, no limitations—just the best AI-driven human expression out there."
AI Avatars’ Uncanny Valley Moment—Solved
AI avatars have evolved—first just lips, then the lower face. But true expression takes more. While most models stop short, Phoenix-3 is the first to achieve full-face animation, capturing every micro-movement, emotional shift, and blink in real time.
With the entire face moving as one, expressions feel natural, fluid, and intentional—finally unlocking true realism, emotional depth, and presence. AI avatars don’t just talk anymore. Now, they express.
