UneeQ
UneeQ is a Digital Humans & Conversational Avatars company founded in 2010 and based in Auckland, New Zealand. It has raised $10M in total funding, most recently a Series A.
Founded by New Zealander Danny Tomsett (the company traces back to his earlier venture FaceMe), UneeQ creates real-time animated "digital humans" — photoreal or stylized avatar faces layered on top of an enterprise's own conversational AI. The platform handles facial animation, lip-sync, gesture, and emotional expression so brands can put a human-like interface on chatbots and assistants. UneeQ runs operations out of Auckland, New Zealand and Austin, Texas, and has worked with brands and enterprises across customer service, healthcare, and retail; it has partnered with NVIDIA on realistic digital-human rendering.
One of the longest-running pure-play digital-human vendors, positioning the animated avatar as an enterprise-grade front end for any underlying LLM or chatbot.
