UbiONE: Create AI Characters with Soul—Effortlessly

Built on a Traditional Chinese language model, it authentically captures Taiwanese cultural nuances. The browser-based platform offers extensive customization options for design, voice, movement, and multilingual interactions.
Ubitus’s CEO Wesley Kuo stated, “We’re honored to receive this recognition from the Administration for Digital Industries. It underscores Ubitus’s leadership in AI technology and reflects the government’s confidence in the future of virtual human technology. We will continue to drive AI innovation, fostering digital transformation and unlocking vast possibilities for industries such as healthcare, finance, and retail.”
An Ideal AI Character Creation Platform for Creators
UbiONE enables creators to develop customized AI virtual influencers capable of extended online streaming interactions. These interactions cover various content, including entertainment, e-commerce, and brand promotion events. Companies can also leverage UbiONE to create virtual characters that engage in natural, emotionally rich conversations and have a deep understanding of brand content, assisting with brand events, marketing promotion, and online customer service. The core technology behind UbiONE empowers these virtual characters with high interactivity and adaptability to various scenarios, creating profound brand engagement and unique value.
UbiONE’s Expanding Impact: From Entertainment to Education
UbiONE has been successfully applied across multiple industries. Examples include Taiwan’s first AI VTuber, ‘Ubi-chan,’ who has completed over 5,000 hours of live streaming and gained thousands of followers. Ubi-chan has represented Ubitus at numerous events as a virtual host, generating rich brand engagement through chatting, content creation, news reporting, and game streaming. Another example is the night market AI guide ‘YesBear,’ the world’s first AI guide for a night market, offering cultural and culinary tours at Ningxia Night Market. In education, UbiONE partnered with Tainan University to introduce “Tai-Ying-Hui,” an AI teaching assistant that enables real-time bilingual (Taiwanese and English) interactions.
UbiONE’s selection marks a significant milestone for Ubitus in AI and digital realms. With growing demand for virtual characters, UbiONE is poised to become a key tool for brand digitalization and enhanced customer engagement.
