I wanted to see what happens when you give a model a face, a voice, a personality, and actual eye contact.
So I built Zek'thar: a real-time AI science tuto. It's a photorealistic alien character that holds live conversations, teaches through Socratic questioning, and remembers what you struggled with last time.
The difference a face makes for voice agents is insane. Students engage 2-3x longer compared to text-based tutors. Turns out humans really are wired for eye contact even with aliens.
Drop a comment if you want me to break down the full build process.
A look at the identity I’ve been working on for Sync, a car rental platform in Greece.
You pick the car you want and a local provider brings it to you. Pretty good starting point.
The goal was to give them a brand that could sit comfortably next to the big rental companies and still feel like people you’d actually want to rent from.
I kept their pink and built the layouts around a shape inspired by a car’s side mirror with real cars and Greek scenery inside it.
Big Greek headlines, plenty of space and a system their team can keep easily.
