Interhuman offers Inter-1, a multimodal AI model that detects 12 social signals from a single video stream by analyzing voice, face, and body language together in temporal alignment. It provides developers with detected signals, evidence-grounded rationales, and confidence scores via structured JSON for building applications such as AI roleplay, communication training, and coaching tools.

Company profile
researched Aug 2026Interhuman develops social intelligence infrastructure for AI applications, delivered as a Signals API. Its core product, Inter-1, is described as an omni-modal model purpose-built for social intelligence: it takes a single video stream and processes video, audio and text together in temporal alignment to detect 12 social signals — agreement, confidence, confusion, disagreement, frustration, hesitation, interest, skepticism, stress and uncertainty among them — along with engagement levels.
Rather than returning only a transcript of what was said, the model reports how something was said by combining cues across modalities, for example distinguishing focus from frustration by pairing a furrowed brow with a vocal pitch shift and tense posture. Output is returned as structured JSON containing the signal type, start and end timestamps, a probability level and a rationale naming the observable verbal and non-verbal cues that triggered the detection. The company states the 12 signals are rooted in behavioral science and that it works with psychologists to validate them.
Business model
Developer-facing API: applications send video and receive detected social signals with rationales and confidence scores, accessed via an API key and supporting documentation.
Traction
The company publishes customer stories including Real Talk Studio, which uses the product to build behavioural evidence beyond words for AI roleplay and communication training, an AI mock-interview application adding non-verbal coaching, and a parent-counselling use case applying socially-aware AI coaching.

Market position
Positions itself as going beyond transcript-based analysis by fusing voice, face and body language from one video stream, and by explaining every signal with the observable cues that triggered it instead of returning opaque scores. Signal definitions are described as grounded in behavioral science and reviewed with psychologists.
Technology
Inter-1, an omni-modal model that analyses video, audio and text jointly in temporal alignment to detect 12 social signals simultaneously. Each detection is accompanied by timestamps, a probability level and an evidence-grounded rationale citing the behavioral cues observed, returned as JSON. The company also presents a signal-cue network visualization mapping signals to behavioral cues color-coded by modality.
Go-to-market
Self-serve developer entry points — a public demo, API key sign-up and documentation — supported by published customer stories across compliance, coaching, workforce, education, interview practice and healthcare segments.
Developers and product teams building sales coaching, AI tutoring, user research, meeting copilots, AI interviews, communication training, virtual assistants and healthcare support applications, as well as builders of agents that need to respond to social signals and tools that give end users structured feedback on their own communication.
