PoseMyAvatar
A web app that takes a single illustration of a character and uses AI to generate the full PNGTuber expression set plus separated front-hair and back-hair layers, exported as a .purupuru-ready bundle.
Aspiring VTubers and streamers who can commission one drawing but not six
- One-input AI generation of the six required expression PNGs (eyes open/closed × mouth open/half/closed) aligned on a consistent canvas
- Auto front-hair / back-hair layer separation with suggested hair-strand physics lines
- Direct export to .purupuru avatar package format and to OBS-ready layered PNGs
- Style presets for anime, chibi, semi-realistic so the generated faces match the source art
VTubing on YouTube and Twitch keeps growing, but a full PNGTuber asset set costs $50-200 to commission; PuruPuru's GitHub traction (90 stars) confirms demand for richer, more affordable PNG avatars.
VTubing market grew from 20M to 70M global subscribers (2021-2023) and PNGTuber commissions routinely run $15-$200, confirming real recurring demand from budget streamers.Vtuber Statistics | Verified 2026 Data ↗PNGTuber Commissions - 2026 ↗
Direct competitor PNGTuberMaker.com already offers AI PNGTuber generation as a paid SaaS ($7.99/mo) and PuruPuru itself is an existing local-web tool for the hair-layer step, so the 'make it for cheap from one illustration' lane is contested, not open.Pricing - PNGTuberMaker ↗GitHub - rotejin/PuruPuruPNGTuber ↗
PNGTuberMaker's $7.99/mo Creator Pass and a $15-$200 commission baseline prove a paying audience exists; would likely need to compete on price/quality versus the incumbent.Pricing - PNGTuberMaker ↗PNGTuber Commissions - 2026 ↗
VTubing continues to expand across YouTube and Twitch with agencies and indies both growing, and PNG/PNGTuber is a format supported by OBS for the foreseeable future.VTubers in Q1 2024, most popular & fastest growing streamers ↗
Generating six character-consistent expression PNGs plus cleanly separated, aligned front/back hair layers from one illustration is a hard multimodal generation problem (identity drift, hair seams, canvas alignment); PNGTuberMaker is already tackling similar pipeline.GitHub - rotejin/PuruPuruPNGTuber ↗
