A JavaScript library for real-time lip-synced talking avatars, rendering full-body 3D characters in the browser. It supports text-to-speech-driven viseme animation, audio-driven lip-sync, and dynamic bone physics for realistic avatar motion.

Use cases

• add a lip-synced 3D avatar to a chatbot web app
• animate a talking head from text-to-speech output in the browser
• lip-sync an avatar to MP3 audio using speech recognition
• build a virtual assistant with a full-body 3D character
• create an AI avatar for video conferencing with voice lip-sync
• stream low-latency AI speech with a talking avatar over WebRTC

When to choose

• you need real-time browser-based 3D avatar lip-sync
• you want to pair an LLM/TTS pipeline with an animated talking character
• you need audio-driven lip-sync from recorded speech

When to avoid

• you need pre-rendered video avatars rather than real-time 3D
• you need a non-web platform like native mobile or desktop
• you want 2D cartoon avatars instead of 3D models
