Profile

Hey HN.Over the last few months, we've (me and @parthradia) homebrewed some very fast, very cheap, and pretty expressive talking head models. Our latest enabled us to finally get a live-streaming API together, which you can try at the playground link above.We actually fell down this rabbit hole because we were spending a significant amount of time building yet another language learning app. We came to the conclusion that the barrier for learning wasn’t the course content, but real, conversational practice. We tried prototyping with standard speech-to-speech models (OpenAI Realtime, Gemini Flash, etc.), but found that we weren’t really triggering our “fight or flight” response.What did trigge
