Pictoria Inc. have selected CoeFont to voice their AITuber “Spinen.” The CoeFont platform is home to thousands of high-tech lifelike digital voices capable of producing a wide range of emotions, accents, and tones.

Comments by Akedo Hayato, CEO of Pictoria Inc.

When developing a new AITuber, we needed to collect several appropriate synthetic voices for each character. The high quality and diversity of the CoeFont voices were a great help. The search function was also easy to use, with the ability to search by gender, tone of voice, and emotion, making it very easy to find voices that matched each character’s personality. Furthermore, speed and intonation changes can be made on the CoeFont platform, which made it possible to adjust and check the voices before implementation and made the process much easier. The API made it inexpensive to implement, and our AITubers were able to receive and respond to replies naturally in real-time.

A Changing World

As the age of the Metaverse fast approaches, the boundaries between the real world and virtual reality are blurring more each day. From social media influencers to live-streamers, virtual avatars are becoming ever more popular. Cutting-edge tech companies like CoeFont, and Pictoria are taking us a step closer to a virtual world.

What is an AITuber?

In short, an AITuber is an AI VTuber or Artificially Intelligent Virtual YouTuber.

VTubers use a computer-generated avatar instead of showing their faces. The user behind the avatar usually chooses to remain anonymous, allowing the virtual character to take on an identity of its own. With the introduction of AITubers, virtual AI characters will be able to talk in real-time using a GPT language model. With the help of CoeFonts cutting-edge AI voice technology, Pictoria’s Spinin will be able to verbally speak to their audience as a human-controlled VTuber would.

VTubers are huge in Japan, and although they started out as YouTube personalities, they can now be found on a variety of platforms such as Twitch, TikTok, and Twitter. While VTubers are more popular in Japan, English-speaking VTubers are also growing in popularity.
