Character.AI

Character.AI is an interactive entertainment platform centered on AI-powered conversational characters.

Users can discover millions of public characters, chat with them by text, start voice calls and create their own characters with a custom identity, description, instructions and dialogue style.

The platform is mainly designed for roleplay, interactive storytelling, creative exploration and entertainment. It can also be used to practice a language, simulate an interview, develop a fictional character or explore narrative scenarios.

Character Voice lets users assign a voice to a character and create a voice from an authorized recording or audio file. Voice calls are available in multiple languages and allow users to switch between text and voice during the same conversation.

Memory and personalization features can improve continuity. Users can create Personas, edit selected messages, manage conversation preferences and access additional capabilities depending on their subscription.

Character.AI also experiments with formats beyond chat, including Imagine, AvatarFX, Streams, c.ai labs, interactive books and short-form series. Availability can change quickly.

The service follows a freemium model. Basic conversations and several voice features are available for free. The official source lists c.ai+ at $9.99 per month or $94.99 per year. Benefits include improved memory, no ads, access to stronger models, no slow mode, unlimited voice calls and early access to selected features.

Character.AI is an entertainment platform, not a professional advisory service. Responses may be fictional or inaccurate and should not replace medical, legal, financial or psychological advice.

The platform applies age-assurance and safety measures. The source states a minimum age of 16 in Europe and notes additional restrictions for users under 18. Users should review privacy settings and avoid sharing sensitive information.
