Tavus is building a new kind of AI platform centered on real time, human like voice interaction. Its core technology, Sparrow 1, is an audio native model that achieves human level conversational timing—specifically turn taking—without relying on Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR). This means the AI can listen, process, and respond in a fluid, natural rhythm, similar to how humans pause and interject in conversation. The platform enables developers to create "PALs" (Personified Application Layers)—AI agents that can see, hear, act, and emotionally understand users in real time, with face to face video capabilities.
