Tech Crunch: D-ID acquires Berlin-based video startup simpleshow
D-ID announced plans to acquire Berlin-based video startup simpleshow, bringing together D-ID’s real-time interactive visual agents with simpleshow’s proven explainer-video studio. The combined company will operate under the D-ID brand and aims to shift training and marketing from one-way videos to live, two-way experiences while uniting teams from Tel Aviv and Berlin.
The deal expands D-ID’s reach with a large, enterprise-grade customer base and opens near-term cross-sell opportunities, all while reinforcing a shared commitment to security, privacy, and responsible AI. A joint roadmap will introduce virtual trainers, conversational onboarding assistants, and more—on a single platform built to lead the category.
