Faces are important

“The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart.”

St. Jerome

Faces tell stories. They express joy, curiosity, and a spectrum of emotions. At Puppetry, we’re dedicated to crafting AI technology that enriches storytelling through the power of facial expressions, connecting us all a little closer.

We are optimists, confident in the transformative potential of AI to make the world a more expressive and connected place. Our mission is to contribute to this future, one face at a time.

We have tried many cloud services and none of them have come close to the price, performance and support provided by TensorDock. If you are looking for compute for AI/ML workloads, give them a try.

If you are an AI startup then consider joining the NVIDIA Inception program. They are backed by a great team at NVIDIA and there are many discounts for GPU purchases.
