• 1. overview (596 chars)

  Bijian Studio is the first free digital avatar customization tool in China released by Bilibili (Bilibili) on April 26, 2024. It was developed by Shanghai Bilibili Animation Co., Ltd. This product integrates "digital avatar" and "tone customization" functions in one stop. By uploading live video and 30 minutes of voice data, users can use AI technology to generate a simulated digital avatar model and exclusive timbre model at a 1:1 ratio. As an AI video creation tool officially launched by Bilibili, Bijian Studio helps creators who appear on camera and recordings to effectively improve their creative efficiency, deeply integrates Bilibili’s creative ecology, and supports one-click submission.

• 2. Product background (746 chars)

  Bijian Studio is developed and operated by Shanghai Bilibili Animation Co., Ltd. and is part of Bilibili's official creative tool matrix. On April 26, 2024, Bilibili officially released this digital avatar customization tool at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC). This is the first free product of its kind in China.   From a technical background perspective, Bijian Studio is based on Bilibili’s self-developed audio and video large model technology. Digital avatar technology uses users to upload real-life videos and voices, and uses AI technology to generate 1:1 simulated digital avatar models; timbre customization technology only requires users to provide 30 minutes of audio material to generate an exclusive timbre model with personal voice characteristics, and supports text or recording-driven digital avatars for intelligent oral broadcasting.

• 3. Product functions and usage experience (1856 chars)

  Bijian Studio provides two core functional modules: digital clone customization and tone customization.   The digital avatar customization function allows users to upload a live video, and AI technology can generate a highly simulated 1:1 digital avatar model. In a live demonstration at the 2024 WAIC Conference, it only took 5 minutes to generate a digital clone. This digital clone can replace a real person to appear on camera, helping creators solve the problem of needing to appear on camera but with limited time and energy.   The timbre customization function requires users to record more than 30 minutes of voice data, and AI can clone and generate a personal timbre model. This model can simulate the user's voice characteristics and supports two driving methods: text-to-speech and recording-to-speech. Users only need to enter text or upload recordings to drive the digital avatar to report, greatly improving content production efficiency.   The product will continue to be iterated and enriched: the batch rough cutting function will be launched in December 2024, supporting recording prompts and intelligent subtitle generation; the v4.8 version will be updated in February 2025, and the video engine will be optimized with Tencent Video Cloud to support 4K 240Hz ultra-clear image quality output; cross-platform release optimization will be completed in March 2025, achieving seamless connection with the backend of Station B; hot meme template library will be expanded in April 2025, optimizing the matching of ghost animals, film and television mixed-editing materials; virtual anchor image customization will be launched in May 2025, supporting animation generation and interactive content creation.   In terms of user experience, creators generally report that the digital avatar has a high degree of simulation and the sound cloning effect is close to that of a real person, which significantly reduces the time and cost of video production. However, there are also certain usage thresholds: 30 minutes of voice material needs to be recorded in advance, a certain amount of time is required to generate digital avatars, and paid membership is required to speed up batch creation.

• 4. Pricing and business model (544 chars)

  The basic functions of BiJiu Studio are free to use, which is its core competitive advantage. Compared with the payment models of other digital avatar products on the market (such as HeyGen, D-ID, etc.), Bilibili chose to make basic functions free and open, aiming to attract more creators to join the Bilibili ecosystem and increase the content richness of the platform.   Paid value-added services may include: batch creation acceleration, high-resolution output, independent digital clone licensing, more templates and special effects, etc. However, the product is currently mainly in the user growth stage, and core functions remain free.

• 5. User reviews (741 chars)

  Judging from public reports and community discussions, user reviews of Bijian Studio are generally positive. Creators recognize its practical value in reducing video production costs, and it is especially suitable for UP owners who need to appear frequently but have limited time. The simulation and sound cloning effects of the digital clone have been recognized, and the deep integration with the Bilibili ecosystem has also been well received.   Negative feedback and concerns are mainly focused on: the 30-minute voice recording threshold is high, it takes a certain amount of time to wait for the digital avatar to be generated, there may be a queuing delay for free files during batch creation, and some advanced special effects require paid membership.   The product is still in the rapid iteration stage, and functional stability and long-term operation deserve attention.

• 6. Industry evaluation (755 chars)

  From an industry perspective, Bijian Studio, as the first free digital avatar customization tool in China, has a first-mover advantage in product positioning. Backed by Bilibili, the leading domestic content platform, its user base and distribution channels are its core competitiveness.   However, competition in the digital avatar track is becoming increasingly fierce. The international market already has mature products such as HeyGen, D-ID, and Synthesia, and major domestic manufacturers such as Tencent, Alibaba, and Byte are also deploying virtual human technology. Bijian Studio needs to continue investing in technology research and development to maintain differentiated competitiveness.   From the perspective of market strategy, Bilibili chose to use free tools to drive the activity of platform creators, which is in line with its community ecological operation logic.

• 7. Controversies and Risks (502 chars)

  Currently, there are no major disputes or legal risks found in Bijian Studio from public information. However, you need to pay attention to the following potential issues:   The compliance risks of AI-generated content require continued attention, including portrait rights and copyright issues that may be involved in digital avatars. The platform has set up a privacy protection mechanism, and customized models are only for the personal use of the UP owner.   Possible ethical issues in AI-generated content are also common risks faced by the industry, including the risk of abuse of deep fakes.

• 8. Applicable groups and usage suggestions (917 chars)

  Must Cut Studio is suitable for the following people:   Bilibili UP owners who need to appear frequently but have limited time can use digital clones to replace real people, which greatly improves the efficiency of video production. Recording creators can use the sound cloning feature to dub without having to re-record. Creators who are interested in virtual anchors can try the virtual image customization function for live broadcast or video creation. Users with deep experience in the Bilibili ecosystem can use the one-click submission function to achieve integrated creation and publishing.   In terms of usage suggestions, creators who need to appear on camera are advised to plan voice recording materials in advance. Creators who are concerned about costs can give priority to using the free file for functional evaluation. Technology early adopters can pay attention to product iterations and try out new features.   In terms of alternatives, similar products such as HeyGen (International), Tencent Zhiying, and Alibaba Cloud Virtual Humans can be considered as alternatives.

• 9. Summarize (596 chars)

  As the first free digital avatar customization tool in China, Bijian Studio provides Bilibili creators with a one-stop solution from digital avatar generation to sound customization. Its deep integration with the Bilibili ecosystem and its free policy are its core advantages that differentiate it from competing products. The 30-minute voice recording threshold and the waiting time for digital avatar generation are the main usage thresholds, but for UP owners with continuous creative needs, these initial investments are worth it. It is recommended that creators who need to produce featured videos actively try and make reasonable use of this tool to improve the efficiency of content production.
