# Keyframe Labs

> Video call and avatar API enabling AI agents to participate in real-time video conversations with animated avatars.

Video call and avatar API enabling AI agents to participate in real-time video conversations with animated avatars. Best for workflows needing visual AI presence -- customer-facing video agents, interactive demos, and avatar-powered video calls.
