Overview

Casablanca is a virtual webcam application from Casablanca.AI GmbH, a German company founded in 2020 and based in Pforzheim. It targets a specific problem in video calls: participants tend to look at the other person's face on-screen rather than into their camera lens, which reads as avoided eye contact even during full attention.

The software processes video locally and adjusts head angle and gaze direction in real time so a caller appears to look directly at the person they're speaking with, including tracking natural changes in gaze rather than locking into a fixed stare. It installs as a virtual camera and works inside Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet without extra hardware, with the company citing a 23% productivity gain from clearer video communication.

Casablanca suits remote workers, sales teams, and anyone running frequent video calls who wants to look more present on camera without new hardware. A free Starter plan is available, with Pro pricing at 7 euros/month, 20 euros/year, or a 200-euro one-time lifetime license.
