The story
Most 'Santa calls' are pre-recorded videos with the child's name pasted in. Call Santa Online is different: the child talks, Santa listens and answers. Every call is a short story with a problem the child solves, and the detail the parent wrote beforehand is the key.
Behind Santa is a speech model that understands children in six languages and a face that is animated live. Parents can whisper hints Santa uses without the child hearing.
