Applications Across Diverse Scenarios: AI Digital Humans
Changing the Perception: 'Digital Humans Aren't for Me'
While awareness of the term 'digital human' is growing, many still feel it's irrelevant to them or their businesses—"I don’t know how to use it" or "It doesn’t apply to me."
The global digital human market is projected to grow from approximately $4.77 billion in 2025 to around $25.81 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of about 40%.
(Source: The Business Research Company / Global Information Inc., March 2026)
Despite rapid market expansion, few people can envision practical, personal applications.
Niuman.AI breaks down this 'lack of use-case clarity' with a single question:
"Is there anything you’d like to communicate—even when you’re not present, in a language you can’t speak, or addressed personally to each individual?"
What is Niuman.AI? No filming. No appearance. Yet, it’s still 'you speaking.'
Niuman.AI generates natural, lifelike videos of you speaking, using only your photo and a script (text or audio).
No need to stand in front of a camera or reshoot multiple times. Simply replace the script, and the same 'digital avatar' can deliver endless videos in multiple languages.
We position Niuman.AI not just as a 'video tool,' but as an asset that speaks on your behalf—your 'digital avatar.'
From an era of 'filming videos one by one' to an era of 'owning an always-working digital twin'—that’s the vision of Niuman.AI.
Newjia’s Proven Expertise in Digital Humans in Japan
Three Things You Can’t Achieve with Simple Recording
In an age where anyone can record videos for free using a smartphone, the value of a digital avatar lies in what traditional recording cannot achieve. Niuman.AI delivers value in three key areas:
① Speak in Multiple Languages—even if you don’t speak them
From a single Japanese script, generate videos in up to 10 languages (Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Russian). Executives can address overseas markets or foreign staff in fluent-sounding local languages. Hotels, tourism, and clinics can provide multilingual guidance to inbound visitors. Eliminate the barrier of "I can’t speak it, so I can’t communicate."
② Speak Even When You’re Not Physically Present
For busy executives with no time to film, founders no longer on-site, or remote team members.
Even messages for the day when you may no longer be able to speak directly.
Deliver your words beyond your physical absence. Notably, our company also operates 'TalkMemorial.AI,' a grief-care AI that enables two-way conversations with the deceased, offering both "speaking again" and "passing on messages to the future" experiences through dedicated services.
AI Digital Human for the Deceased: 'TalkMemoria.AI'
③ Speak to Each Individual Personally
Create personalized messages addressed to customers, partners, or employees, incorporating names and individual details. Upgrade bulk emails or printed greeting cards into videos where 'you speak directly' to each recipient.
Where Can You Use This in Your Work?—Concrete Use Cases
Training & e-Learning: No need to reshoot when content changes—update scripts to mass-produce updated versions
Sales & Product Demos: In-house production of tailored explanation videos for each client or product
Recruitment & Company Introductions: Deliver consistent, high-quality messages from executives or senior staff to applicants
Multilingual PR & Executive Messages: Expand one script into multiple languages, enabling in-house international outreach
In-store & Reception Signage: Deliver multilingual guidance and customer service with a 'human face'
SNS & Video Content: Sustain continuous content publishing without the burden of on-camera appearances
Additionally, use cases include wedding speeches from the bride and groom, retirement or 60th birthday celebrations, New Year’s cards, or greeting cards—any situation where "filming feels awkward" or "there’s no time." With 'zero filming, zero embarrassment,' convey heartfelt emotions effortlessly.
We distribute through partners such as wedding planners, photo studios, printing companies, and gift businesses.
Applicable Across Diverse Scenarios
World-Class Generative Technology with Ethical Design Principles
Niuman.AI combines world-class generative AI platforms—carefully selected and optimized by us—with our proprietary audio and video pipeline technology. Multilingual voice synthesis has been validated in real-world use for Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, and more.

CEO Yukihiro Kashiwaguchi’s Comment
"We want to change the perception that 'digital humans are only for large corporations.' The real value lies in the ability to communicate across language barriers, physical absence, and personalization—something relevant to every individual and organization, regardless of size. From an era of 'filming videos' to an era of 'owning your digital twin.' We hope Niuman.AI becomes the first step in that journey."
