Metaphysic.ai is a world-leading generative AI company specializing in creating hyper-realistic synthetic media for Hollywood, advertising, and digital entertainment.
Introduction
Metaphysic.ai is a world-leading generative AI company specializing in creating hyper-realistic synthetic media for Hollywood, advertising, and digital entertainment.
It gained global fame for its “Deep Tom Cruise” videos and its performance on America’s Got Talent, where it performed live “AI face-swaps.” The platform uses proprietary deep learning models to perform seamless face synthesis, de-aging, and voice cloning.
Beyond creative production, Metaphysic is a pioneer in Ethical AI, focusing on the concept of “Personal AI” and biometric data rights, ensuring that high-fidelity digital twins are created only with the explicit consent and benefit of the individuals involved.

Review
Metaphysic.ai is known for its unmatched visual fidelity and ethical leadership. Its primary strength is the ability to cross the “uncanny valley” more effectively than any other tool, producing results that are indistinguishable from real footage even on 4K cinema screens. It is an indispensable partner for major film studios needing complex VFX work like de-aging or digital stunt doubles without the need for traditional, expensive CG pipelines.
While the technology is exclusive and expensive, requiring enterprise-level partnerships, its commitment to the “Every Individual Matters” ethics framework and its technical dominance make it the gold standard for cinematic-grade face synthesis.
Features
Metaphysic Live
A breakthrough technology that allows for the real-time application of a synthetic face onto a live performer, used for stage shows and live TV.
AI De-aging & Re-aging
Automatically modifies an actor's appearance to look significantly younger or older without traditional VFX "painting."
Digital Doubles
Creates 100% accurate 3D/AI digital replicas of actors for high-risk stunt work or impossible camera angles.
FaceSwap for Post-Production
Seamlessly replaces one performer's face with another's while maintaining original lighting, shadows, and expressions.
Lip-Sync & Localization
Automatically adjusts the speaker's lip movements to match dubbed audio in any language, ensuring perfect visual-audio alignment.
Metaphysic Pro (Individual AI Vault)
A platform for individuals to store and manage their biometric data, protecting it from unauthorized "deepfake" use.
Best Suited for
Hollywood Film Studios
Ideal for de-aging actors, creating digital stunt doubles, or finishing scenes for deceased performers.

Metaphysic Live allows for unprecedented interactive AI performances.
Leadership in Ethical AI ensures that the technology is used responsibly.
Faster than traditional 3D CG modeling.
Weakness
Training data requirements are high.
Hardware requirements are massive.
Getting started with: step by step guide
The Metaphysic workflow is a highly managed process involving data collection and custom model training.
Step 1: Consultation & Consent
The project is defined, and explicit legal consent is secured from the individual whose likeness will be used.
Step 2: Data Collection
High-resolution footage (4K/8K) of the “source” individual is collected across various lighting conditions and expressions.
Step 3: Model Training
Metaphysic’s proprietary neural networks are trained on this specific data to learn every nuance of the person’s face.
Step 4: Integration
For live shows, the Metaphysic Live hardware is integrated into the broadcast pipeline. For films, the AI is applied to “plates” (footage).
Step 5:Synthesis & Refinement
The AI face is rendered onto the target performer. Metaphysic’s artists perform final refinements to ensure lighting and texture are perfect.
Step 6: Delivery & Archiving
The final content is delivered, and the biometric data is securely archived or returned to the owner via Metaphysic Pro.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I download an app to use Metaphysic AI?
A: No. Metaphysic is an enterprise-level technology provider. It does not currently offer a consumer-facing app or a self-serve subscription for individuals.
Q: Is this the company that made the "Deep Tom Cruise"?
A: Yes, Metaphysic’s co-founder Chris Ume was the lead artist behind the viral @deeptomcruise videos on TikTok.
Q: Is it ethical to use this technology?
A: Metaphysic is a vocal leader in Ethical AI. They require consent for all projects and have launched the “Every Individual Matters” campaign to advocate for biometric rights.
Q: Can they bring back deceased actors?
A: Technically, yes. However, they only do so when working with the legally authorized estate of the deceased person, ensuring a respectful and authorized recreation.
Q: What is "Metaphysic Live"?
A: It is a technology that allows a performer’s face to be replaced by an AI-generated face in real-time, with virtually no latency, during live broadcasts or stage performances.
Q: How long does it take to create a digital twin?
A: For cinematic quality, it can take several weeks to train the models and refine the output, though the actual rendering is much faster than traditional 3D methods.
Q: What is "Metaphysic Pro"?
A: It is a service designed for high-profile individuals to manage and “vault” their biometric data, allowing them to monetize their likeness while protecting it from unauthorized use.
Q: Can Metaphysic clone voices too?
A: Yes, their technology includes AI voice cloning to perfectly match the synthetic visuals with the correct vocal tone and cadence.
Q: How does this differ from traditional CGI?
A: Traditional CGI builds a 3D model from scratch. Metaphysic uses neural networks to learn from actual photos/videos, which results in more realistic skin textures, eye movements, and lighting.
Q: Can this be used for deepfake fraud?
A: Metaphysic strictly avoids “non-consensual” projects and works with major platforms and governments to help identify and prevent harmful deepfakes.
Pricing
Metaphysic.ai does not offer a public “SaaS” price list. It operates as an Enterprise/Project-based service and technology partner.
