Introduction to Rapport

Rapport is a technology platform enabling AIs, and other voice or text-driven digital characters to communicate in a life-like way.

What makes this possible is a complex, scalable, cloud-based infrastructure of back-end services connecting to a front-end component integrated into the hosting site.

While the back-end services take care of connecting to AIs, running speech recognition, text-to-speech, voice analytics, translation, animation, and other necessary services, the front-end component takes care of sending user interactions and receiving the voice and animation streams securely. The data received is then synchronized and rendered in real-time. securely. The data received is then synchronized and rendered in real-time.
