About Valka.aiValka, a visionary spin-off from the Realms Group (the parent company of
Oddin.gg), is on a mission to
revolutionize the way people create and experience digital content. Our team believes that content shouldn’t just be consumed; it should be
co-created in real time, blurring the lines between imagination and reality. By harnessing the power of cutting-edge AI, we aim to build an
interactive human-digital platform where virtual characters respond dynamically to each user’s voice, text, gestures, and more.
This is your chance to
join a diverse group of innovators who are
driven to redefine what’s possible in generative content. Together, we’re changing the paradigm from passive viewing to active participation,
unlocking new creative frontiers across gaming, entertainment, education, and beyond.
