API and no-code platform for real-time video AI agents that see, hear and talk with a human face
Tavus builds conversational video agents it calls PALs: AI personas with a realistic face and voice that hold live video calls for sales greeting, support, training roleplay, patient intake and onboarding. Developers integrate the Conversational Video Interface API and replica models, while non-technical teams assemble agents in the PAL Maker web app; custom replicas clone a specific person from footage. Free tiers exist on both sides, then developer plans start at $59/month plus per-minute usage and consumer PAL plans run $20-50/month.
Two ladders. Developer API: free tier with 25 conversational minutes/month, Starter $59/month (100 minutes, $0.37/min overage), Growth $397/month (1,250 minutes, $0.32/min), custom Enterprise; custom replicas beyond quota bill about $40-65 each. Consumer PALs: free 15 call minutes/month, Plus $20/month (150 minutes), Max $50/month (500 minutes).
Use tool ↗One of the few vendors selling real-time face-to-face AI conversation as an API rather than prerecorded avatar clips, and the free tier lets you test the latency yourself. Budget carefully: per-minute conversation pricing plus per-replica fees add up quickly, and humanlike agents raise consent and disclosure questions your legal team should own.
Watch out: Custom replicas beyond plan quotas bill roughly $40-65 each and conversation overage runs $0.32-0.37/min - pilot with stock replicas to validate the economics first.
