About D-ID

D-ID's feed is a content-marketing engine, not a changelog

The D-ID feed carries the company blog rather than its product changelog. Every entry across the last three months is a search-targeted listicle or explainer — best-of roundups, use-case guides, how-tos — each closing with the same appeared-first-on-D-ID footer and a free-trial call to action. Nothing in the visible record describes a shipped change to the avatar product itself.
