D-ID, the generative AI video content platform, and AI voice technology company ElevenLabs have announced a partnership to combine their generative AI tools.
In this partnership, ElevenLabs will bring nine of its premium AI-generated voices to D-ID’s generative AI self-service platform Creative Reality™ studio, which will enable users to create videos with more natural speech options.
The self-service studio provides users with a comprehensive set of generative AI tools, allowing them to create videos featuring talking avatars. This innovative technology combines the deep-learning face animation capabilities of D-ID, GPT-3 text generation, and advanced text-to-image functionalities.
Additionally, the studio users to generate personalized video narrators in 119 languages, making it an efficient tool for a wide range of professionals and industries, including brands, corporations, marketers, creators, digital artists, filmmakers, advertising agencies, illustrators, storyboard artists, music video producers, and game developers.
With just a single image, these users can craft videos effortlessly and bring their still images to life. D-ID’s Generative AI technology is available not only to enterprise clients but also to individual users. It also integrates with Microsoft PowerPoint, Canva, and other compatible applications, to provide a user-friendly experience.
D-ID recently unveiled new features to its Creative Reality™ studio. These updates include a revamped user interface (UI) with the ability to add facial expressions to avatars and digital characters. By integrating nine premium voices from ElevenLabs into its library, users can now convey emotions, emphasis, and personality more effectively with four visual expressions — serious, happy, surprised, and neutral.
Gil Perry, CEO and co-founder of D-ID, claims that the studio sees a new subscriber every two seconds on average. Over 150 million videos have been created using the Israeli startup’s technology. In March, D-ID launched a new chatbot that users can have a face-to-face conversation with. The project, named D-ID Chat combines ChatGPT technologies with proprietary AI programs.
“We are very excited to join a leading player in the text-to-video field like D-ID,” said Mati Staniszewski, CEO and co-founder of ElevenLabs. “Many customers use our voices to bring digital people and avatars to life. Collaborating with D-ID is a natural progression and response from users to merge our market-leading voice technology together with D-ID’s top rated text-to-video tech.”
In June, ElevenLabs raised $19 million in a Series A round led by former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman, ex-Y Combinator partner Daniel Gross, and Andreessen Horowitz.
