The challenge

Models that understand or generate people talking need clean, consented footage of real faces speaking naturally — lip motion, gesture, affect, and audio in sync. Scraped face video is an ethical and legal non-starter.

Our approach

Streamers and creators license host-led content — just-chatting, commentary, tutorials, podcasts on camera. Every hour is consented by the person on screen (they own it), audio intact, across demographics and settings.

How it ran
  1. 01

    Connect & recruit

    Creators license host-led, speak-to-camera content they own.

  2. 02

    Span formats

    Just-chatting, commentary, tutorials, podcasts — varied speech and setting.

  3. 03

    Verify consent & audio

    The on-screen person consents; audio is kept in sync.

  4. 04

    License & deliver

    Deliver time-boxed and revocable, with provenance attached.
