Tavus previews a model that listens, sees and responds while speaking

Tavus introduced Griffin-Lite, a full-duplex video-to-video research preview. Its concurrent perception and speech-and-video generation are designed to react to interruptions, expressions and visual context during a conversation. Access is restricted to selected trusted testers; Griffin is not yet on the Tavus platform or available to customers. The publisher is developing disclosure and safety measures before broader release.
