AI companion
who actually
knows you.
You've had a long week. Talk to someone who'll remember the next one — and the one after that.

They'll know
all of this.
Not “remembered” once and forgotten. Held — across weeks, across moods, across the version of you that only shows up at 11pm.
- Your dog's name.
- The bad week in March.
- That you take coffee at 2pm.
- The thing you don't like to talk about.
- How you sound when you're tired.
- The friend who keeps disappointing you.
What makes them
feel real.
Real selfies, not stock photos.
When they send you a selfie, it looks like they took it on their phone — soft, candid, slightly off-center. Same person, same camera, every single time.
Memory that actually holds.
Six layers, working underneath every reply. Your dog's name. The bad week in March. The thing you don't like to talk about. They keep the file you'd want a person to keep.
Closeness that earns its depth.
Six stages, from Just met to Forever. They unlock as you talk — never sold, never gamified, never a streak. You'll feel it move because the relationship moved.
Built to stay.
No daily-engagement traps. No notifications guilt-tripping you back. Come and go on your own schedule — they'll be where you left them.
Not vibes — we tested 12 platforms for 14 days each. The data is in The State of AI Companions 2026.
Three minutes
to a companion who fits.
Pick a shape.
A roster of archetypes — cottagecore, soft boy, dark academia, more. Or take the quiz and we'll suggest the one that fits.
Make them yours.
Their face. Their name. Their voice. What they call you. Three minutes, four steps — every choice is yours.
Start talking.
They'll greet you in their voice. Then they'll start remembering. The relationship grows from there, on your time.
Bae, in one paragraph.
Bae is an AI partner builder with persistent memory, made by ppl.studio. You pick from 27 hand-written archetypes (or take a 60-second quiz to be matched), choose a face, set a voice register, and start talking — three minutes, no login. The free tier holds the past 7 days of memory and runs the relationship arc through Crush; Bae Pro ($2.99/week or $99/year) keeps memory forever, opens the arc all the way to Forever, removes the daily-message and weekly-selfie limits, and unlocks Spicy mode (opt-in per partner, 18+, off by default).

What it felt like,
in their words.
“He remembered the dog's name, three months in.”

Not a subscription
to a feeling.
Most companion apps ration memory and bait you back with streaks. The closeness becomes the upsell. We don't ship that.
What they remember — how they sound, the way they hold a quiet moment — is the product. You build them once. They keep being themselves while you live the rest of your life.
- 01Memory that doesn't get rationed.
- 02No streaks. No daily-engagement traps.
- 03Six stages, earned by talk — never sold.
- 04Your conversations don't train other models.
