Transforming Communication with AI: The Launch of Shabekuri AI

In an era where the demands of communication continue to escalate, VeriCerts Corporation has teamed up with DLE to redefine how public relations are managed. This partnership has introduced ‘Shabekuri AI’, a groundbreaking SaaS platform designed for companies and municipalities, set to launch on December 18, 2025. This innovative tool takes full advantage of generative AI technologies, breathing life into character-driven communications, thus revolutionizing PR strategies in the digital age.

The Essence of Shabekuri AI

At its core, Shabekuri AI is designed to ease the workload of PR professionals. With a simple text input, users can generate character dialogues, synthesize voices, animate lip-syncing, and incorporate facial expressions—all via a unified platform. It boasts automatic video output formats, including vertical (9:16) and square (1:1), making it ideal for social media engagement. Furthermore, Shabekuri AI supports multilingual capabilities, allowing content dissemination in various languages such as English and Chinese—ideal for international communication.

Character Compilation

Currently, a selection of popular characters enriches the Shabekuri AI platform:

• - The Secret Society Taka no Tsume: Featuring characters like Yoshida-kun, the Leader, and the Doctor.
• - Soro Valley's Anime-chan: With characters such as Ketsuago-neesan, Ageko, and Oto-chan.

In total, the platform currently supports approximately 40 characters, including original creations by the hit anime director Soro-tani. Plans to expand the character roster to 100 are already underway, with intentions to incorporate characters from other companies, municipalities, and individual creators in the future.

Addressing Industry Challenges

The rapid evolution of generative AI technology offers remarkable advancements in content production efficiency and costs, but also presents significant challenges. Many companies struggle with a lack of specialized skills and heavy workload when creating consistent video content. Assurance of reliability is vital, especially when credibility hinges on who is accountable for disseminated information. As both VeriCerts and DLE work to re-establish trust in the digital landscape, leveraging technology to solve issues such as copyright clarity and transparency in AI-generated materials becomes paramount.

Technical Contributions from VeriCerts

VeriCerts contributes significantly to the Shabekuri AI project by integrating their generative AI engine into the platform. This includes:
1. Seamless Automation Pipeline: A robust pipeline processes everything from text analysis to animation generation and voice syncing, making it exceedingly user-friendly. The capability to generate high-quality video featuring character voice and actions with a minimal user input is a remarkable advancement in PR technology.
2. High Transparency in AI Usage: Operating in a closed environment that utilizes DLE's licensed IP ensures that all character-based content is compliant. The relationship between the utilized IP and outputs is clear, providing a secure environment for companies and governments to leverage AI technologies with confidence.
3. Quality Entertainment Value: Aside from technical efficiency, attention to the entertainment aspect ensures character personalities are preserved and conveyed authentically, with AI behavior adjustments made under DLE's supervision to optimize user satisfaction.

Setting New Standards in Content Creation

Amid the evolving nature of generative AI, the narrative is not one of competition between AI and content creation but rather the synthesis of both for enhanced value creation. VeriCerts envisions a future where the creative process remains transparent and traceable, potentially utilizing decentralized technologies to ensure proper attribution of AI-generated content. A focus on sustainable revenue models means that creators and IP holders will receive fair compensation as AI technologies flourish.

Looking Ahead

Future developments for Shabekuri AI will include character expansions and enhanced multilingual functionalities, alongside integrating VeriCerts’ expertise in decentralized identity management and verifiable credentials. These advancements aim to build a robust PR platform capable of verifying the authenticity of AI-generated character communications, thus safeguarding against misinformation and protecting brands in an increasingly digital landscape.
