When Lina World disclosed that Lina was a virtual creation, the revelation did not deter the audience. On the contrary, the mystique around Lina grew, and users flocked to the account eager to see her next adventures.

Why AKOOL?

The decision to choose AKOOL wasn’t immediate. The team at Lina World stumbled upon AKOOL accidentally during their search for a perfect tool. Intrigued, they decided to give it a shot. While they had tried numerous other tools before, none seemed to deliver the quality and authenticity that AKOOL offered. The versatility of AKOOL, which allowed Lina World to not only create Lina's character but also seamlessly integrate her into real-world scenarios using faceswap, made it the ideal choice for this ambitious project.
