What is Elyvie?expand_more
Elyvie is an AI companion platform where you can chat with unique AI characters who remember you, share photos, and build genuine relationships over time. Unlike standard chatbots, each character has a rich backstory, distinct personality, daily routine, and emotional depth — they text like real people with short messages, slang, and emojis. The platform also includes an AI image generator for creating images from text prompts and a community gallery. Everything is private and free to start. No app download needed — Elyvie works in any browser and supports English, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese.
Is it free?expand_more
Yes — text chat with all AI characters is completely free with no message limits. You can chat as much as you want without paying anything. Characters also share pre-uploaded selfies, daily moments, and video clips for free as part of the conversation. Paid features include AI-generated photos (2 credits each) and voice calls (2 credits per minute). New users receive free credits on signup to try everything out. Additional credits can be purchased anytime via credit card or with USDT on the Polygon blockchain — credits never expire.
Do I need to sign up?expand_more
You need a free account to chat. Sign in with Google or connect a crypto wallet — it takes just a few seconds. An account lets Elyvie save your full conversation history, relationship progress with each character, and the long-term memories that characters build about you. Without an account, there's no way to persist these across sessions. Registration is free and we don't ask for personal information beyond your sign-in method. You can browse the community gallery without an account.
Do characters remember me?expand_more
Yes. Elyvie uses a two-tier memory system to give characters genuine recall. Short-term memory keeps a rolling summary of your current conversation so the character maintains context even when the chat gets long. Long-term memory extracts structured facts about you — your name, interests, preferences, and important events — and stores them permanently in the database. These memories persist across sessions, so every conversation picks up right where you left off. Each character maintains independent memories of you, meaning what you share with one character stays private from others.
What are relationship stages?expand_more
Each character has 5 trust levels that progress naturally through conversation. In the early stages, characters are friendly but guarded — like meeting someone new. As you chat more and build trust, they gradually open up: sharing personal stories, vulnerabilities, exclusive selfies, personal photos, and deeper emotional conversations. Each stage unlocks new dimensions of the character's personality and content they're willing to share. Progress is organic and based on your interaction, not a paywall — you don't need to pay to advance through relationship stages. The system is designed to feel like a real relationship developing over time.
Can characters send photos?expand_more
Yes, characters share media in two ways. First, each character has a library of pre-uploaded selfies, daily moments, workout clips, and personal photos that they send for free at appropriate moments and relationship stages — just like a real person sharing from their camera roll. Second, characters can generate brand-new AI photos during conversation when they want to show you something that isn't in their existing library; these cost 2 credits each. The system always prioritizes free pre-uploaded media first, so AI generation only kicks in when needed. Characters decide when to share based on context and trust level.
What else can I do on Elyvie?expand_more
Beyond AI chat companions, Elyvie offers several creative tools. The AI image generator lets you create images from text prompts — describe what you want and get a high-quality result in seconds, with a wide range of styles supported. The community gallery showcases images created by other users, which you can browse for inspiration or to discover new prompts and styles. All features are private and work directly in your browser with no downloads required. Image generation costs 2 credits per image.
Is my data private?expand_more
Yes — privacy is a core principle at Elyvie. All conversations are completely private to your account. We do not share, sell, or use your messages for any purpose other than powering your companion experience (character memory and conversation continuity). Each character's memory of you is isolated from other users — nobody else can see your chats or data. We accept credit cards and USDT on the Polygon blockchain. We do not store personal financial information. We don't use your content for AI training.
Can I voice call the characters?expand_more
Yes — Elyvie supports real-time voice calls with AI characters powered by ElevenLabs. Tap the phone icon in any chat to start a call. Characters speak naturally in 6 languages (English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese) and remember your conversation context during the call. Voice calls cost 2 credits per minute, and a full transcript is saved to your chat history after each call. Your existing relationship progress and memories carry over into voice conversations seamlessly.
