About D-id.com

D-ID is a technology company founded in 2017 that specializes in generative AI to create interactive and photorealistic digital people. The company was established by Gil Perry, Sella Blondheim, and Eliran Kuta in Tel Aviv, Israel, and now also has headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware. The founders, who met during their service in an elite intelligence unit of the Israeli Defense Forces, initially focused on developing technology to protect images from facial recognition software out of privacy concerns. This evolved into their current mission of creating lifelike digital avatars to transform human-computer interaction.

D-ID's core products enable businesses and individual creators to generate videos from still images, text, and audio. The flagship platform, Creative Reality™ Studio, allows users to produce videos with talking avatars, supporting over 119 languages. The company also offers AI Agents for real-time conversational experiences, Video Translation, and an API for developers to integrate D-ID's technology into their own applications. This technology leverages Natural User Interface (NUI), deep learning, and facial reenactment to animate static images into dynamic video personas. The business model is accessible through a self-service studio, API integrations, and partnerships with major platforms like Microsoft PowerPoint and Canva. D-ID serves a wide range of clients, from content creators and marketing agencies to Fortune 500 companies, including PepsiCo, J.P. Morgan, and Microsoft.

The company has achieved significant milestones, including being named a CES 2024 Innovation Awards Honoree. It is backed by venture capital firms such as Pitango, Macquarie Group, and AXA Venture Partners. Over 200 million videos have been created using its platform, and more than 280,000 developers utilize its API.
