🔍 Give Your AI a Voice — and a Face

We're entering an era where AI doesn't just respond - it speaks, expresses, and appears in video.

With BMadCode, ElevenLabs, and Wav2Lip, you can build AI agents that act as:

🧑‍🏫 Virtual tutors
🤖 Conversational avatars
🛍️ AI product reviewers
🌐 Multilingual video translators

🎯 What You'll Build

A complete Voice & Lip-Sync AI Agent that:

🧠 Understands your prompt (BMad agent)
🔊 Responds with natural speech (ElevenLabs)
🎥 Speaks in video form (Wav2Lip)

🧩 Tools You’ll Use

Tool	Purpose
BMadCode	Orchestrates agent roles, memory & prompts
ElevenLabs API	Converts text into realistic speech
Wav2Lip	Syncs speech to a talking face
Qwen3 / Claude / GPT-4	(Optional) LLM backend
