bitHuman for enterprise
bitHuman makes real-time AI avatars — visual AI agents, or digital humans — that turn audio into a lip-synced, talking face. The same avatar runs in the bitHuman cloud, on your own servers, on the device (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android, Linux, and in the browser with WebGPU), or, for Business and Enterprise customers, completely offline. When the avatar renders on your hardware and you use your own voice and language services, bitHuman receives usage metering only — never audio, video or conversation text.
Put a lifelike, lip-synced avatar in front of customers — on the device in their hand, on the terminal in your branch, or on servers you control. You decide what, if anything, reaches us.

FAQ
Yes. Essence 2 and Expression 2 render on iPhone and iPad, Android (arm64), Mac, Linux and in browsers with WebGPU. Measured results for each device are published at docs.bithuman.ai/performance.
Offline license is only available to Business and Enterprise clients who want to run realtime avatars completely locally, off the internet — e.g. kiosks, trade shows, ATM machines, embedded screens. Linux PCs and terminals; arranged through sales. Essence 1 runs fully offline on Linux (x86_64 and ARM64) today. Essence 2 and Expression 2 offline come later. Expression 1 runs in the bitHuman cloud only. Packs start at 100,000 credits. Other self-hosted and on-device sessions check in when they start and keep rendering through a network drop of up to 5 minutes.
When the avatar renders on your hardware, its audio and video stay there. The conversation runs where you choose: the CLI's local conversation brain, your own speech and language services, or bitHuman's cloud voice service. With the first two, bitHuman receives usage metering only — never audio, video or conversation text. In the bitHuman cloud, and with the web embed, audio and conversation are processed by bitHuman and its service providers to run the session.
HIPAA compliance is a property of your program and deployment, not of a single software component. bitHuman can be deployed so that no protected health information reaches bitHuman — on the device, on your own servers with speech and language services you control, or fully offline — and sessions that render on your hardware store no transcript with us. Healthcare deployments are set up under an enterprise agreement and review; contact us to walk through your data flows.
With on-device, self-hosted or offline deployment, your customers' conversations stay in the systems and regions you choose, and bitHuman receives usage metering only. Creating an avatar from a portrait happens in the bitHuman cloud. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your content to train our AI models unless you explicitly opt in.
