Ready Player Me

Ready Player Me is an AI-powered cross-app avatar platform for games, apps, and the metaverse.

Overview

Ready Player Me creates full-body 3D avatars from a selfie, usable across thousands of games and apps. Its AI generates a stylized face from one photo, then users customize hair, clothing, and body in a detailed editor. The platform is developer-first: an SDK and API let studios embed avatar creation and sync avatars across experiences. The result is a portable identity for VR, games, and virtual meetings.
