Beyond Presence

Beyond Presence is an avatar chatbot tool. Beyond Presence pairs hyper-realistic, real-time AI avatars with conversational agents. The Genesis 2.0 model streams under 100ms in 1080p across 100+ languages, and can be attached to existing LiveKit or Pipecat voice agents by API or built into a managed agent in the dashboard.

Beyond Presence builds real-time AI avatars that sit in front of conversational agents, so a voice bot or chatbot answers with a synchronised human face instead of a blank window. The company's in-house Genesis 2.0 model streams at under 100ms of latency and renders at 1080p, with lip sync, facial movement and head motion tuned for live back and forth rather than scripted video. Over 100 languages are supported, and the avatars are designed to run at enterprise scale, with the vendor quoting rates that fall to EUR 0.03 per minute at volume. The product comes in two shapes. Teams that already run an audio agent on LiveKit or Pipecat can call the audio-to-video API to attach an avatar to that pipeline, keeping their own speech stack and simply adding a face. Teams that want a finished agent can build one in the dashboard: pick or create an avatar, write the prompt, attach a knowledge base or your own LLM, then share a conversation link or embed the agent in a site as an iFrame. Prebuilt personas such as Michael for sales, Laura for support, Jerome for HR and Nelly for learning show the intended shape of each deployment. That puts the tool in the infrastructure layer rather than the consumer chatbot market. It is aimed at developers and product teams wiring avatars into support desks, sales training, coaching, healthcare intake, HR interviews and e-learning, plus the contact centre and digital twin use cases in the vendor's case studies. Compared with plain text chat widgets, the draw is presence: a face on screen keeps people in the conversation longer, which is the engagement argument the company makes with its Bunjee and Tutore AI references. Compliance is a stated selling point. The platform is developed in Europe, is GDPR compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified, and references the EU AI Act. Published figures include at least 99.5 percent uptime across regions and more than 1,000 parallel sessions. Buyers should note that most of the value arrives through code or a managed dashboard, not a drag and drop studio, so an integration step is part of the deal.
