"Statement of Work: AI Avatar Creation
1. Executive Summary
This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the development of a lifelike AI avatar representing the subject using AI tools and custom development like Hey Gen api, D-ID api.
The goal is to create an intelligent, video-based AI avatar that can interact conversationally, accepting text and voice input and delivering video and text responses that feature synchronized lip movements, expressive animations, and realistic voice synthesis using top AI api’s like Heygen, D-ID.
The project will focus exclusively on AI avatar creation, voice cloning, lip-sync animation, custom admin controls, and deployment integration (AWS S3).
The avatar will be flexible to embed on any website or digital platform, support text-based interaction, and produce high-quality video responses without watermarking.
The entire project will be completed within 4 weeks, culminating in a production-ready avatar that responds dynamically and realistically in real time.

2. Project Objectives
• AI Avatar Development: Build a semi-realistic, 3D animated avatar capable of realistic lip-sync and natural expression.
• Conversational Response Flow: Enable text and voice inputs with text + video outputs, allowing users to converse naturally with the avatar.
• Voice Cloning: Develop a custom TTS engine matching the subject’s tone, rhythm, and delivery style.
• Admin Dashboard: Create a custom administrative dashboard to control the avatar’s knowledge base, tone, and conversational rules, logs for user testing including parameters like time to generate a response, length of response. Allow easy editing of instructions, topics to avoid, conversation starters, and welcome messages.
• Integration & Deployment: Deploy via AWS S3 for scalable and secure data storage and access.
• High Fidelity & No Watermark: Ensure realistic video responses free of watermarking for professional use.
• Testing & Optimization: Perform iterative QA to refine avatar realism, response speed, and accuracy.

3. Scope of Work
3.1 Avatar Visual Design & Animation
• Create a 3D semi-realistic avatar with detailed facial rigging for accurate lip-sync.
• Add subtle gestures and expressions (e.g., blinking, nodding) for realism.
• Ensure smooth playback and rendering across browsers and devices.
• All generated video responses must be free of watermarks.
3.2 Voice Cloning & Synchronization
• Develop or integrate a custom text-to-speech model trained on the subject’s tone and pacing.
• Achieve smooth synchronization between generated voice and avatar animation.
• Optimize for naturalness and low latency (few seconds per sentence).
3.3 Conversational AI Integration
• Build a conversation system allowing users to ask questions via text or voice.
• The avatar will respond with text output and video responses (lip-synced with generated voice).
• Maintain context alignment between text and video outputs.
3.4 Custom Admin Dashboard
Develop a custom, secure admin dashboardthat allows the client to:
• Upload or modify knowledge sources for the avatar (expand dataset).
• Change behavioural parameters or system instructions (tone, ideology, context rules).
• Edit conversation starters, welcome messages, and topics to avoid.
• View logs of user testing sessions, including:
o Time taken to generate responses.
o Length of generated responses.
o Session timestamps and query logs.
• Manage fine-tuning data and adjust prompt templates.
3.5 Testing, Branding & Improvements
• Conduct internal testing for accuracy, performance, and synchronization.
• Add custom branding (logo, UI integration) as provided by the client.
• Refine avatar and voice model based on internal feedback loops.
3.6 AWS S3 Integration & Deployment
• Integrate AWS S3 for data storage, retrieval, and backup of audio/video assets.
• Ensure secure content delivery and access management.
• Optimize for speed and cost efficiency with CDN integration (optional).

4. Deliverables
• Fully functional AI avatar with lip-synced video response capability.
• End-to-end text + video conversational interface.
• Custom admin dashboard with full control over knowledge, tone, and testing logs.
• Integrated AWS S3 storage for scalable deployment.
• Source configuration, deployment documentation, and test environment.
• High-fidelity avatar with no watermark and flexible web embedding.

5. Developer Requirements
• Experience in AI avatar creation, TTS, and lip-sync animation.
• Background in Heygen, D-ID, or similar APIs preferred.
• Proficiency in Python, Node.js, or equivalent for backend/API orchestration.
• Experience building custom dashboards and web integrations.
• Familiarity with AWS S3, GPU inference, and scalable hosting setups." (client-provided description)
