D-ID is on a mission to help businesses and creators put their best face forward. With our self-service studio and API, we enable users to generate videos featuring an endless selection of AI-powered presenters for a wide range of uses.

Founded in 2017, D-ID is a global leader in utilizing Deep Learning technology to animate the human (as well as not-so-human) face, capable of creating moving and talking avatars based on a single still photograph or illustration and a few lines of written or recorded text.

A building block of the Generative AI space, customers use D-ID’s platforms for everything from crafting new forms of video storytelling, to elevating online courses by adding digital instructors, to putting a friendly face on customer service chatbots, all while dramatically reducing the time and cost of video production.

You will have end-to-end responsibility for the company’s Conversational AI solution, including guiding development, working with 3rd-party NLP / LLM engines, working with NLP service companies, and being the “voice” of this product - both internally and externally.

In addition, exploring the most impactful use-cases of this solution, the value proposition of having a live conversation with a generated photorealistic person in real time, market needs, costs, pricing, and business model.

The Conversational AI field is becoming one of the hot-spoken topics around the globe, taking a major part in the Generative AI revolution and disrupting the way that people are communicating with machines. Together with D-ID’s core technology, which enables the creation of a photorealistic person who can speak the text input in real time over a live stream video, has the potential to take AI-Conversation to its next level, and pioneer a new way for people to interact with machines.
