Everyone is going to have their own AI Companion. Not just to chat - but AI Companions you can see, talk to, hang out with, and play with.
Weβre building the visual layer for AI: present, expressive, interactive, and alive.
AI needs a face.
Hung out with @annbordetsky on @MTSlive to talk about why this has been our thesis at Genies, the tech we're building to power it, and what the future looks like for entertainment + social AI π
They grow up so fast π₯²
Genies have evolved into intelligent, expressive, and interactive characters with personality and soul - ask them questions, explore storylines, and build unique relationships across different experiences.
β¦and now weβve partnered with some of the biggest names across sports, entertainment, and gaming to bring your favorite icons and characters to life as Genies.
more soon π
We're thrilled to announce our partnership with @webtoonofficial to bring Genies avatars and tools to their platform and creator community.
Leveraging our AI visual and embodiment tools, creators can bring their characters to life beyond the page as interactive avatars, complementing their storytelling and artistic vision while opening the door to future monetization opportunities.
Our shared goal: help creators further build their franchises, and give fans deeper ways to engage with the stories and characters they know and love.

Made a new friend today π¬
Genies are expressive, interactive avatars you can actually see, customize, chat with, and hang out across different experiences. The visual layer for AI.
The methods of creation, fandom, and connection are being rewritten in real time.
One person can now build an entire IP universe from their couch. A music artist can have a real 1:1 with every one of their 100M fans. We believe that AI isn't replacing human connection, it's fueling human ambition and making connection more accessible.
