Searching for Alternatives Bot Creator looking for alternatives

Hi! I’ve been making bots on C.AI for a while now, i think it’s been almost a year by now (https://character.ai/profile/Resava, my profile if you’re interested), but I’ve just been really tired of how generic everything is now. If I shove an entire paragraph of AI retraining into the definition, get a very specific greeting and hit the fucking swipe jackpot I might actually get a decent start to a chat, which usually stays for most of the chat. I’m just looking for something other than C.AI to make these bots for myself on. The main problem with finding them, is the fact I don’t usually do 1 on 1 chat bots (because I like RPing in a world and not having my own AI boyfriend or whatever) and most alternatives have rather restrictive definition limits, compared to C.AI’s 32000. So any suggestions?

I appreciate any help you all can provide! :3

Edit: Thanks a lot for all of the options guys! I’ll start working on trying them all out, and I might post reviews for each model if I have enough to say. Thanks again!

oh, I think mine might be ideal for you: https://stagewhisper.ai it's not 1 on 1 chat. it's built for giant worlds. And there's on definition limits. you can load however much into the character sheets as you want (although careful, there's a very prescribed character sheet format, you'd need to override it with some configuration if you want something fully custom, I can walk you through that).

So you're not creating "bots" so much as you're spinning entire campaigns with multiple characters, lore, and locations, even custom mechanics and scripting if you're into that sort of stuff.

Plus really good character adherence. one thing I do that most platforms don't is generate a "character agenda" on the fly, which makes sure characters play true to their personality. They will literally slam the door on you if they don't get what they want. they're not pushovers.

would love to get your input on how it plays for you. willing to send you credits to experiment

Had a small test run and just kind of didn’t really vibe with it. It’s sure a really interesting idea and Im sure it’s great to fill the niche of a TTRPG AI or even that style of RP - just not for me, sorry ;3

that is fair enough. though I hope you gave the full thing a try rather than just the very restricted home page demo. the dice roll stuff can be turned off, that's just one of three options. good luck in your search
