What exactly is the use case here? I have yet to see a website replace their text chat with an avatar

I can see one use already; Streamer avatar, but hosted instead of running it locally. All you would need to do is include the HTML in the OBS overlay and it can now be "your face" on stream.

  • I don't know of any vtubers who would want to spend $2490 then $200 a month to have an avatar instead of a one time payment of a lot less than that (depending on your artist/rigger). Corporate vtubers who would be able to afford that (like hololive) are able to get professionally made models, and indie ones are generally not rolling in the cash
