Brief

MaineCoon, Catnip's real-time audio-visual model, aims to convert AI video into persistent, interactive 'digital friends' by continuously generating voice, motion, and expression (claimed 47.5 FPS on one H100 and <$0.001/sec) with thousands-second streaming and SOTA SocialVideo Bench results; @EHuanglu warns this feels like 'Black Mirror.'

Most AI video today is still:
prompt → wait → watch a clip.

MaineCoon is built for something different:
prompt → talk → interact in real time.

In our vision, the character is not a fixed video clip that just waits for your input. It keeps generating voice, expression, and motion on its own.

That is why AI video starts feeling less like content — and more like someone you can actually hang out with.

To meet our goal, the first step is Mainecoon, a real-time interactive audio-visual model built for streaming generation to interact with you.

1⃣Up to 47.5 FPS on a single H100 GPU
2⃣Audio-visual generation cost below $0.001 / second
3⃣Long-duration streaming generation for 1000s+ seconds
4⃣Continuous audio, motion, expression, and visual alignment
5⃣SOTA performance on SocialVideo Bench
From passive video to real-time AI presence.
