Face to face AI companion calls with voice, motion, memory
Beni AI is a real time, video call first AI companion. Instead of only texting, you can create and video call your AI Companion that responds with voice, motion, and expressions. Beni also builds long term memory adapts over time with you, so your companion stays consistent over time. We’d love feedback on: - Does the call feel natural or uncanny? - What persona do you desire from companion? - What would make you come back daily?
Hey PH! Summer here, founder of Beni.
I built Beni because most “AI companions” still feel like a text box with a personality skin. The moment you stop typing, the presence disappears. I wanted the opposite: something you can actually call, that reacts in real time, and that feels consistent across days, not just within one chat session.
Beni is a video call first AI companion with a Live2D avatar. She responds with voice, expressions, and motion, and she builds long term memory you can control. The goal is simple: make the interaction feel more like hanging out with someone, not prompting a model.
Our approach evolved a lot while building this. We started thinking the hard part was “better replies.” It turned out the hard part was timing and coherence: aligning voice, motion, and response so it feels natural, plus designing memory so it’s useful without being creepy. So we focused on presence, latency, and user controlled memory, and only then polished the personality layer.
Would love feedback on a few things:
1. What kind of ai companion do you imagine?
2. What should Beni remember vs. never remember?
3. If you can do anything with ai companion, what would that be? - ask certain task to her, watch youtube together etc.
4. What would make you come back daily?
If you try it and hit anything weird, drop details (device + timestamp) and I’ll follow up. Thanks for checking it out.
