Introducing Rapport: the Latest Advancement in Human-Machine Communication

by Gregor Hofer, CoFounder + CEO
Over the past decade our team has constantly innovated to deliver more engaging
and complete digital experiences for entertainment giants, including Warner Brothers,
Epic Games, and Microsoft, among others. With some of the most quality conscious
clients in the entertainment industry using our Speech Graphics animation technology,
it has become the standard solution to creating high fidelity speech animation.
So what comes next?
We’ve improved the graphics, sound, and fidelity of the machine interaction while
at the same time enabling machines to display natural behaviors and create
appropriate reactions to what users are saying. Most excitingly, this core technology
is now delivered using a scalable cloud backend, taking care of all the heavy lifting
so your users’ devices don’t have to. Sounds pretty great, right?
Meet Rapport. Our new platform for the web development community that will unlock
digital avatars on the web using our mature technology. Rapport lets you integrate
a digital avatar into a webpage with just a few lines of code. Any web developer
will be able to create a compelling conversational AI experience using Rapport.
The platform connects a range of technologies, including ASR, TTS, and NLP from
best in class providers seamlessly using our sophisticated backend. This results
in a beautifully rendered character users can interact with right there and then,
on a webpage, without any downloads.
During this private release phase, we are looking for developers who want to try
it out—to test, and see what’s possible. To begin with, you’ll be able to use any
Amazon Lex bot with a digital avatar. Using our backend services you can see for
yourself how natural it feels to interact with a digital character that is driven
by an AI. Want in? Sign up below for early access.

If you are a business leader thinking about implementing conversational AI
to efficiently communicate with your customers, consider how you can replicate
some of those human connections using technology. And feel free to reach out to us at
hello@rapport.cloud—we’d
love to discuss those possibilities. Ultimately, we’re about making human-computer
interactions more human.
We look forward to building the future with you.
