You’ve tinkered with model deployment or real-time processing before (even if only in toy projects) and can help us level up.

A “build-and-learn” mindset.
You’re happy to spin up GitHub drafts, share early code, and co-create with users from day one.

A passion for ethics & privacy.
You’ll champion simple, sensible approaches to data protection and responsible AI.

Experiment with tools like Inworld Character Engine, MetaHumans or Ready Player Me, and toy around with Audio2Face or similar.

Run quick iterations & user-feedback loops.
Build basic prototypes, share them with friends or target users, and learn fast what works (and what doesn’t).

Help us set up lightweight processes.
Introduce just-enough structure—maybe a weekly check-in or simple Scrum board—to keep ideas moving without slowing us down.

Play with simple data capture & insights.
Sketch out ways we might track which features people like, build small scripts or dashboards, and brainstorm next steps together.
