Agentic AI lab building foundation models for live video agents
Atmanity is an agentic AI lab founded in 2024 by researchers including Chen-Ping Yu and Yi-Hsuan Tsai, whose prior company Phiar was acquired by Google. It builds real-time human foundation models so video agents can move, listen and react with distinct personalities. Its first consumer surface, Atmee, turns a single image plus short audio into a live conversational avatar; Atmee v2 was announced in early November 2026.
