Explanations from a trusted face, in everyone's own language.

We create AI clones of a trusted face from your organisation, so explanations land better with employees. Here you can read how that came about and who is behind it.

Why we do this

Those employees really do want to do it right, they just don't have the foundation they actually deserve.
Otter Wiltingfounder, Clonefy
  • With explanations in Dutch

    Nodding isn't understanding.

    When people get an explanation face to face, they quickly nod as if they understand. Which makes sense, because they want to do it right.

  • When it comes to safety

    No room for misunderstandings.

    Of course it remains important that people learn Dutch. But when it comes to safety, you don't want misunderstandings.

  • With a video in their own language

    Watch again whenever you want.

    They feel seen. And they can always watch the explanation again whenever they want.

How it started

No master plan.Just a problem that kept coming back.

  1. 2022During an internship in Málaga

    Learning to make videos

    Filming and editing, learned during the internship

    Otter did an internship at a software company, as a multimedia content creator. His internship supervisor taught him to film and edit. Towards the end of that internship the first AI chat tools came out, and he started trying out what you could do with them.

  2. 2023At the same company

    The face of the videos left

    Voice-overs that already existed

    New videos, the same voice

    From voice-overs that already existed, a voice that could record new videos

    His internship supervisor was the face and voice of the company videos, and left. The videos still had to go on. Otter created a voice clone from the voice-overs that already existed, and the company hired him to keep making the videos with it.

  3. 2024A company of his own

    Voice and image together

    Welkom. Ik ga je vandaag uitleggen hoe wij hier werken.

    Choose a language

    Otter's clone today: one sentence, eight languages. Choose a language.

    After that he started out on his own, first with video. Standing out in that market proved difficult. So he combined voice and image, made an AI clone of himself and put a video online.

    “The reactions were so positive that I thought: there's something here.”

    Someone in a demo

    You are the real Otter, right?

    Otter

    Yes, I usually reveal that at the end of the conversation.

  4. 2025The first client in cleaning

    A chat on the padel court

    Novon
    The AI clone, from the recording day at Novon

    On the padel court Otter got talking to someone from Novon. That's how the first client in cleaning came about: an AI clone of the commercial director, who explained the new employee app among other things, including in Ukrainian. A colleague even asked him whether he spoke Ukrainian too.

    “From that moment on, things started rolling.”

  5. 2025After Novon

    Choosing cleaning

      Kumij
    A few of the AI clones clients use today

    We worked for all kinds of companies, but in cleaning the same challenges kept coming back. So we decided to focus on it. After Novon came NIVO, Fonville, CSU, Keus and Hygiëneplan, among others, and beyond cleaning, for example, childcare organisation SKSG and window frame supplier Kumij.

  6. 2026Where we are now

    From recording day to our own platform

    Three clones on one recording day at Hygiëneplan, October 2026

    At Hygiëneplan we filmed three clones in one day. At the Kennis- en Innovatiemiddag (knowledge and innovation afternoon) of B2/Effektief we made a clone on the spot as a demo. And at the end of October the new version of our platform went live.

    “There's still plenty to build.”

What we stand for

Real, and not too perfect.

There are plenty of stock clones and standard avatars. We deliberately choose your own people, in your own place.

  1. Your people, your setting.

    We believe in a real recording: someone your employees know, filmed at your own location. It doesn't have to be perfect, it can be human. You see that in every video you then create with the AI clone, and that's how explanations land better.

  2. A recording day that's easier than you think.

    It's not a normal video shoot with a script. For a clone it doesn't matter what you say: we record you briefly and you talk about whatever you like. We guide you throughout the day, and so far almost everyone found it easier than expected.

  3. Talk first, then a plan.

    AI clones are still fairly new and you can use them in many ways. We have a route that works for many organisations, but it doesn't have to be yours. We work with this every day and know what is and isn't feasible. That's why we start with a conversation and think along with you about a tailored solution.

Who we are

A permanent core, not a large organisation.

Developers and filmmakers we work with again and again, and partners for what we don't do ourselves. As founder, Otter keeps the product and the recording days in his own hands.
