RAIA is a virtual AI host created for events and developed as the company’s virtual character. Built using the MetaAvatar tool, she moderated speakers, told jokes, sang, and interacted live with the audience. The biggest challenge was making her feel emotional and human-like while functioning reliably in a live online environment and communicating naturally in Ukrainian. I was curious to explore how AI can feel expressive and human in live communication, and how new technologies are transforming the way people connect and interact.

I led the idea, concept, visual direction, and behavioral design — defining how RAIA should move, speak, react, and embody the required values. I recorded and produced the training videos to help the model sound natural, emotional, and fluent in Ukrainian.
