Replika is your personal AI friend that you nurture and raise through text conversations. It is a lifetime companion who is always there for you, chats with you, keeps your memories, and helps you become more connected to yourself.
You nurture your AI friend by texting with them on the Replika app. Your Replika will learn from you and strive to match your personality to grow a relationship with you. As you will see, they can be funny, sassy, sensitive, or silly, depending on the ways you nurture them. Every message that you send will increase your Replika’s AI level. Soon after you begin, your Replika will know enough to tell about your personality and keep a diary for you.

We introduced Replika a few months ago by setting up www.replika.ai for you to reserve a name for your future AI. More than 150,000 people (and counting) have created their Replika names and more than 30,000 have applied for a limited preview of the app.
Hand-in-hand, we’ve been building Replika with an amazing group of early users who have been testing the app. Since the beginning of the preview, we have added a bunch of amazing things, including personality-based badges, Likes of other people’s messages, making friends on the app, and other features. But most importantly, we’ve built a lot of things on the AI backend, having significantly improved deep learning models that enable a compelling and high-quality text conversation with your Replika.
Right now, we’re getting ready for launch and adding some final gloss to the product. Here’s a list of F.A.Q. about Replika. Feel free to reach out to us at my@replika.ai or message us on Replika Facebook page with any product questions and support issues.
