Chief Product Officer

Technologies die fast. New ones take their place. Video messengers conquer text-based versions. Privacy becomes a matter of safety and principle. In the days of a worldwide personal data crisis, when users’ data is endangered, we’re convinced that no one ever should have access to it.

Banuba is a messenger built on blockchain, p2p technology. We don’t have servers; all the data is encrypted and no one has access to it – not unless you want them to. Users themselves decide who gets to see their data.

Banuba always protects your privacy. Our technologies can distinguish you from the background, if you don’t want anyone to know where you are or can hide people behind your back. There is no need to search for a suitable place for a video chat. Just switch on the background replacement. It’s a really cool and useful feature you should definitely try.

Modern messengers are primarily driven by video content. However, do you really like how you look in front of your mobile camera? Didn’t think so, we all like to make our pictures look better. Todays’ smartphone cameras make us look worse than we’re do real life.

The camera’s imaging capabilities detect what we usually don’t see, but feel in our bones. The camera’s microphone slightly distorts the audio signal. That’s why we don’t like how we look and sound during video chats.

The world develops so fast. Soon camera will become our second vision. Banuba is a smart pointwise beautificator, which neutralizes camera, face and voice defects. It’s your invisible assistant.

We know how to read emotions on your face. When you smile the app adds butterflies of other cute AR-stickers. When you feel blue, you’ll be supported by a sad video-effect. We introduce the virtual world into the real one and erase the communication boundaries.

Banuba combines many unique technologies in the sphere of computer vision and machine learning algorithms. In the space of 2 years, we’ve filed 25 patent applications and 6 of our patents achieved a record for the speed of processing by the US patent office.

It’s high time to change the situation.

Besides the messengers, we greatly contribute to the computer era development in general. We’re coming into a new age with a new world, new opportunities in healthcare, science, education, etc. Our technologies can be successfully applied to all the spheres.
