How Media Companies use it

An older print subscriber is shown the e-edition sign-in screen by screen while the avatar explains each step aloud.

A shop owner who speaks Vietnamese hears your community paper's packages explained in Vietnamese, then meets the sales face.

A Spanish-speaking visitor asks what airs tonight; the multilingual avatar for station websites opens the program page and reads the lineup in Spanish.

Lisa opens the chat and hands over to sales, digital support or subscriptions, and the face, the name and the voice change together.

Pictures while she talks

When she explains the weekend package she opens its page, and when a reader asks to see the app's sign-in she holds the picture up.

Questions & answers

AI Avatar for Media Companies: questions & answers

Is an AI avatar useful on a newspaper or station website?

For visitors who prefer to be shown rather than read, yes. The avatar is your chat with a talking face: she opens your pages and holds up your pictures while she answers, which helps a print reader find the e-edition or a first-time advertiser read a package.

Will visitors think the avatar is one of our anchors?

She is presented as your company's AI assistant, with a name and a face you pick from ten looks, and she never pretends to be a person she is not. Choose a look that does not resemble your on-air talent.

Can one visitor keep the avatar busy all evening?

No. Session limits stop one visitor from holding her for hours; past the limit he gets the face loop or the text chat, and every other reader on the site keeps her face.

Does the avatar need AI Webchat?

Yes. AI Avatar gives the chat on your site a face, so it runs on top of AI Webchat with the same knowledge, the same session list and the same hand-over to your departments.
