What Is an AI Companion?

An AI companion is a conversational service designed to maintain an ongoing interaction rather than answer a single question. Depending on the product, it may support memory, voice, character creation, images or roleplay.

The experience is generated by software. It is not a human relationship, professional therapist or crisis service. Product claims about memory, privacy and personalization should always be checked against current documentation.
