Hey PH friends,
We have some news. You might’ve seen a bunch of celebrities using our 2D avatars over the last year or so (we represent thousands of celebs through our Avatar Agency), but we’re pumped to finally bring our new 3D avatars to consumers with the release of our Avatar and Digital Goods SDK. Giphy and Gucci will be serving as our first partners.
Any platform that uses our SDK can natively integrate both our 3D avatars and marketplace. Our avatars are designed to fit any user story and aren’t built for just one single use case. It really depends on what your platform wants out of an avatar. Regarding the marketplace, we believe this is a good example of how avatars are capable of much more than what’s been typically expected. The marketplace enables creators/celebrities to sell digital avatar goods to their fans on any platform in the Genies ecosystem (think Fortnite skins model brought to the social space).
Our goal with the SDK is to eventually become the visual identity layer of the internet as it itself becomes increasingly visual and immersive. You have your physical self and physical identity, and you’ll soon have your avatar self and avatar identity. Our 3D avatar and digital goods marketplace is a step in that direction.
On the agency side of things, we’ve become the go-to avatar for celebrities such as Shawn Mendes, Justin Bieber, Cardi B, Rihanna, and more. We also work with a majority of athletes through our partnerships with the NFLPA, MLBPI and NBPA. And yes, all Avatar Agency talent will be distributing their own digital goods to consumers throughout the Genies ecosystem. Giphy, Gucci, and future SDK partners will become new digital marketplaces.

Congrats on the launch @jclintandrews! Love your mission goal. As the world was thrust into digital relationships and communications, having a singular visual identity (avatar) would be awesome. From Oculus to Zoom, having one Avatar that can integrate across each digital touchpoint is something I think is much needed. I have a slew of Avatars created for each app and it's a bit frustrating to have to create a new one each time.
If only Miis could have taken off.... Looking forward to seeing how Genies are used. Applied as well 👌🏻
Have been following you guys for quite some time and you'll have been a great inspiration. Loved your earlier website and love this new update. Congratulations! I requested access, would be a great addition to our platform AR platform and get them alive. Looking forward to it.
Congrats on the lanch! Love this, could see this becoming a universal avatar solution. Excited to sync up my avatar to all my social profiles eventually
?makers - is it possible to Whitelabel this? I mean, if I want to use this to generate and create an avatar of my own?
@aditikapss will be free to create your own avatar, but then will be a mix of free vs. paid for the digital goods. Rare/exclusive digital goods will be paid
