Evidence claims

[upstream_claim] README: automatically creates 2D mouth animation from voice recordings; integrations listed for Adobe After Effects, Moho and OpenToonz, Spine, Vegas Pro and Visionaire Studio; export formats TSV, XML, JSON and dat; input WAV or Ogg Vorbis. source
[upstream_claim] PocketSphinx recognizer is for English; a Phonetic recognizer is language-independent for non-English recordings. source
[sourced_fact] LICENSE.md states MIT for the project (copyright 2015-2016 Daniel Wolf) and lists bundled third-party licenses including a CMU Sphinx acoustic model under a 2-clause-BSD variation. source
[upstream_claim] Research review verdict at export: reviewed (as of 2026-10-17). Recorded by the research pipeline, not a hub review outcome; evidence.review stays unreviewed until an independent reviewer records one.
