Tavus capabilities
12 mapped capabilities, each graded and dated. The map shows what Tavus can do; the audit shows whether it’s worth consolidating — and a guide shows how to move.
Capabilities
CVI embedding — React component library, iframe, and Daily SDK
provisionalverified ~2 months agoFront-end options for dropping a live conversational video agent into a web app.
Conversational Video Interface (CVI) — real-time AI video agents
provisionalverified ~2 months agoAn API-first framework for building real-time, face-to-face conversational video agents: a lifelike digital human that sees the user, listens, and responds in a live two-way video call.
Cross-session memory
provisionalverified ~2 months agoLets an AI persona remember context about a user across separate conversations and devices, so interactions feel continuous and personal.
Knowledge Base (RAG grounding)
provisionalverified ~2 months agoGround a conversational persona in your own documents so the AI human answers from proprietary, domain-specific content via retrieval-augmented generation.
Phoenix real-time human rendering
provisionalverified ~2 months agoThe rendering model that synthesizes a photorealistic digital human face in real time, including lip-sync, micro-expressions, and natural listening behavior.
Plans and pricing
provisionalverified 25 days agoTavus's developer (API) pricing tiers for conversational video and video generation, plus the consumer PALs tiers.
Pluggable LLM layer and tool / function calling
provisionalverified ~2 months agoChoose the language model that drives a conversational persona — Tavus-hosted models or your own LLM — and let it call external tools/functions mid-conversation.
Raven multimodal perception (emotion + ambient awareness)
provisionalverified ~2 months agoThe perception layer that lets the AI human see and interpret the user — facial expressions, gaze, emotion, posture, surroundings, and shared screen — and feeds that context to the LLM in real time.
Replica creation — custom AI digital twin and stock replicas
provisionalverified ~2 months agoCreate a photorealistic AI avatar (replica) of a real person that can speak, listen, and respond, or use a ready-made stock replica.
Sparrow conversational turn-taking and interruption handling
provisionalverified ~2 months agoThe dialogue-timing model that manages natural conversation flow — when the agent should speak, pause, or yield when the user interrupts — so the back-and-forth feels human.
Transparent / green-screen and custom backgrounds
provisionalverified ~2 months agoRender a replica with a transparent or green-screen background, or composite it over a website or supplied video, so the AI human can be overlaid on slides, demos, or branded scenes.
