Graded B- on resilience. In Vannus's assessment it has not disclosed which model it runs — resilient — owns model IP or routes across providers.
API for conversational and personalised video — digital replicas that can hold real-time video conversations or generate individualised videos at scale. The privacy policy names Tavus Inc., 2261 Market Street STE 86391, San Francisco, CA, states personal information will be accessed and processed in the U.S., and states Tavus will create anonymised data from customer-provided samples to train AI m
Not disclosed. Tavus does not publish which model it runs, so this criterion is excluded and the grade rests on what we could verify. We say so rather than guess.
This is a separate question from the grade above. The grade measures resilience — whether the tool endures and whether you could leave it. This measures who can compel your data. A tool can score modestly on one and strongly on the other, and many do.
The vendor's published or catalog-recorded posture — the concrete facts this grade is built from. A full audit verifies each against the vendor's current documentation.
Vannus grades Tavus against nine dimensions of trust — data sovereignty, training privacy, compliance posture, operational resilience, exit portability, and more. The heaviest criterion asks whether the tool builds its own AI or resells someone else's model; where the vendor discloses it, the grade cites the vendor's own documentation. No paid placements — scoring is walled off from affiliate revenue. See the methodology →
