Users can generate personal avatars using photos, voice clones, or scripts, enabling scalable, low-cost production of lifelike digital hosts for e-commerce, entertainment, and marketing.
Douyin supports a full stack of features including real-time AI livestreaming, avatar customization, virtual influencer creation, and multi-account management through matrix-style operations.

The platform supports 24/7 automated livestreaming and cross-border e-commerce sales, with strict policies requiring AI-generated livestreams to be clearly labeled and compliant with community guidelines.
