Overview
- Unveiled on Dec. 10 at the AI Summit in New York, SMF VoXAI is a multi-agent communication system designed with and for people who cannot speak.
- The platform delivers photorealistic, responsive avatars synchronized with a user’s voice and eye-tracking inputs, and can propose three reply options to accelerate back-and-forth conversation.
- Distribution follows a freemium plan with basic access free and premium features at $30 per month, contrasting with traditional AAC devices that can cost $10,000–$15,000.
- A two-year study tracking about 20 participants across multiple countries will be led by Tecnológico de Monterrey to evaluate impact on communication speed, emotional presence and participation.
- D-ID supplies the real-time avatar layer on NVIDIA-powered infrastructure with ElevenLabs voice cloning and Irisbond eye-gaze, as project leaders call for clear, revocable consent and strong provenance controls for digital likeness and voice.
