Live Avatars let you have real-time conversations with an AI-powered avatar. With less than 1.7 seconds of latency, it feels like a natural video call — perfect for brainstorming content ideas or getting instant help.

What Are Live Avatars?

Live Avatars use advanced AI technology to create a realistic, interactive avatar that can see you, hear you, and respond in real time. The avatar speaks naturally and can help you with content creation, platform questions, and creative brainstorming.

How to Start a Session

Find the widget — Look for the floating avatar button in the bottom-right corner of the screen. It's available on most pages across the platform. Click to open — Click the button to open the Live Avatar panel. The avatar will appear in a video window. Grant microphone access — Your browser will ask for permission to use your microphone. Click "Allow" to enable voice chat. Without microphone access, you won't be able to speak to the avatar. Start talking — Once the session is active, simply speak naturally. The avatar will respond with less than 1.7 seconds of latency.

Ending a Session

Click the stop/close button in the avatar panel to end your session. Your conversation is not saved between sessions.

Visual avatar with realistic expressions and lip sync

Limitations

Live Avatars are a cutting-edge feature and have some current limitations:

Sessions require a stable internet connection
Only available in supported browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox)
Conversations are not saved or transcribed
The avatar cannot directly create or schedule posts on your behalf

For the best experience, use a headset or earphones to prevent audio feedback, and ensure you're in a quiet environment. Tip for Live Avatar tier holders: Your tier comes with bundled credits — the easiest way to put those credits to use is to share your avatar via link on WhatsApp, email, or social. Anyone who taps the link talks to your avatar with no signup.
