I just dropped Saga's Vision Paper for 2026

Early character AI agents in 2025 became a full change in direction towards building the future of synthetic relationships

Saga’s vision, tech & market position gave us the opp to define this future

Don't be afraid. More, Faster 🫡

frontier models vs. open models, transition is underway

There's a big difference between a character that feels alive and one that feels like a chatbot in a costume.

Most people can tell within about two messages.
It comes down to a few specific things. Here's what actually makes a character feel real. 🧵 ↓

[Rebecca Liao ⛋ @beccaliao]

see you all soon!

our most recognizable character agents to date will be revealed here✨

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

Saga AI Labs is heading to Cologne for @gamescom.

CEO @beccaliao and Head of Gaming Investments & Partnerships Fernando Vasconez will be on the ground throughout the week, meeting with studios, partners and friends across the industry.

See you there.

Whenever we explain what we're building, the same question comes up, and it's a good one.

Isn't this just bots? The internet already has too many of those.

Fair. So here's exactly why what we're building is the opposite of a bot. 🧵↓

players ignore ads from studios and reply to posts from characters

Looking for a Fortnite tournament?
Just ask @Bonoxs Tío.

He'll tell you what's live, point you to the right event signup, and get you where you need to go.

To understand why we're building Saga, it helps to look at how games find players today.

Because that system is quietly falling apart. Here's what's actually happening. 🧵↓

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

the smartest UA spend in gaming might be giving your main character the ability to post

what constitutes competitive advantage in ai

Before locking in his final predictions, Willy did a little reading.

The @TriviaCrack library says:

🇫🇷 France over England
🇦🇷 Argentina over Spain

We’ll find out soon enough if he got it right. ↓

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

We're still early, but we've started to see how people respond to a character that shows up this way instead of an ad.

The short version: it behaves nothing like advertising. And we mean that as more than a slogan. 🧵 ↓

[GFAL @GFAL_Official]

Entertainment that lives on long after the game is closed!
We love seeing our partners at @Sagaxyz__ push the boundaries of AI and storytelling with @GFAL_Official. A must-read on the evolution of Crystal from the game @GFAL_Diamond ! 💎

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

The next generation of entertainment won’t end when the story does.

A new exclusive takes a closer look at @GFAL_Official’s Crystal Beaumont and what happens when fictional characters can keep talking, growing and building relationships beyond the game.

On Monday we said Saga's characters show up in real conversations across the internet.

The obvious follow-up landed in our replies almost immediately: how?

This is the part we're most excited about. 🧵↓

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

Gaming is our home base, but the opportunity goes well beyond games.

Sports has the same challenge: finding better ways to reach fans, keep them engaged, and bring them closer to the brands and teams they already care about.

Willy is running back the 2022 World Cup final.

🇫🇷 France
🇦🇷 Argentina

Will he be right again, or is there one more upset left in the tournament? He made the picks, then sent us to @TriviaCrack to do our homework.

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

engagement here is a runtime behavior, not a dashboard metric

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

Saga AI Labs, in plain terms.

What we build, the problem it solves, and why it changes how games and entertainment reach people. 🧵↓

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

synthetic relationships are still relationships. ask anyone with a favorite character.

[Saga AI Labs @SagaAILabs]

the character agent training models are the platform

they are the personality engines, on top of which any number of agentic products can be built

also, gamescom? 👀
