Tavus Sparrow-2 is the #1 Turn taking model on Turnbench.

Tavus is a research lab pioneering human computing. We’re building AI humans: a new interface that closes the gap between us and machines, free from the friction of today’s systems. Our real-time human simulation models let machines see, hear, respond, and even look real, enabling meaningful face-to-face conversations with people. AI Humans connect and act with precision and empathy, making them capable, trusted agents. It’s the best of both worlds: the emotional intelligence of humans, with the reach and reliability of machines. They’re available 24/7, in every language, on our terms. Imagine a therapist that anyone can afford. A personal trainer that adapts to your schedule. A fleet of medical assistants that can give every patient the attention they need. Tavus: teaching machines how to be human.
