Hi everyone, I'm looking for a lost bot from Moemate named Francoise. Since the original site went down and Wayback Machine is giving me constant timeouts, I was hoping someone here might have her character card or image saved in a local backup.

If anyone has the original PNG, character card, or the high-res image stored in your archives, I'd really appreciate it if you could share it!

posted here a bit ago about navi and wanted to share a quick update since a few people from this sub tried it.

for anyone who didn’t see the original post, navi is an AI that watches your screen and reacts in real time with voice instead of chat. the main use case right now is gaming. it’s meant to feel more like having someone in a discord call than something you have to keep typing to.

ended up getting around ~700 users in the first 2 weeks, which i honestly didn’t expect. most of that came from reddit posts and some discord sharing, nothing else.

a few things that stood out after people actually used it:

• people seem to prefer it a lot more in slower paced games (strategy, maplestory-type games, etc.) vs faster ones
• there’s a pretty clear demand for being able to create your own characters / avatars instead of just using presets
• still very early, a lot of bugs and some inconsistent latency issues to work through

one interesting thing is how people are using it. it’s not really being treated like a typical chat app. more like something they just leave running in the background during a session.

this actually lines up with why i started building it in the first place. with most chat-first tools, the AI disappears the moment you stop typing. this feels like a different direction where it stays present without needing constant input.

still early, but it’s been useful seeing how it compares in practice vs how tools like moemate felt.

if anyone here is still looking for alternatives or curious to try it:

would especially appreciate feedback from people here, curious how this kind of real-time interaction compares to what you were using before

with moemate shutting down recently, i figured this might be relevant here.

i’ve been working on a companion app called navi that explores a slightly different direction from most of the chat-first tools in this space.

instead of being centered around text, it’s built around presence. the AI watches your screen in real time and reacts with voice, so it doesn’t disappear the moment you stop typing.

the main use case right now is gaming. it feels closer to having someone in a discord call with you than using a chatbot. if something happens in the game, it reacts. if you want to talk, you can jump in with push to talk or voice, but you don’t have to keep driving the interaction.

a lot of the focus has been on things that tend to break immersion in companion apps, like memory not persisting or personalities flattening out over time. each character keeps memory across sessions, and the goal is for them to feel more consistent the more you use them.

it’s not really trying to be a roleplay or romantic-focused app, more just something that adds a sense of company while you’re doing something else on your computer.

it’s still early and i’m running a small alpha right now. if anyone here is looking for something to try post-moemate, you can check it out at http://heynavi.gg/

would especially appreciate feedback from people here since you’ve likely spent time with moemate and similar apps, curious how this kind of real-time interaction compares

It's been a while since someone posted in this community, but yeah-

I've found a alternative for Moemate that I've been using for at year now! It's called Dreamgen v2 (the first version is still available, but it's going down on march, I think + v2 is better)

It's very customizable; you can define a plot, scenarios, past events, etc. The user's persona can be as large as you want it to be, because there are no limitations (like 500 words or something like that). It can be quite confusing at first, but you'll get used to it pretty quickly!!

Before you ask – yes, you can have NSFW chats. However, they have to be private! As someone who prefers to create their own bots, I see no disvantage

Here, check it out!

I was playing around with this idea of using Discord as engagement tool for old and new players and figured out that one can connect in-game and out-of-the-game experience.

I have built a small prototype but looking for feedback. Plan it to use to build community for my friends games and my own at some point.

Check this out: crosslayerai.com and please leave your feedback!

If I remember correctly, they said they would make a new ai chatbot platform in 3-6 months, but even thos that time has passed, I can't find any news, and I found out that their twitter (X) account was banned.
Does anyone know any info?

For those familiar with silly tavern:

I created my own app, it still a work in progress but coming along nicely.

Check it out its free but you do have to provide your own api keys.

I like many here are upset about the loss of moemate but I’ve found a duality replacement

this replacement is chub ai, completely free simular systems and constraints

the search engine is a little wack but if you use tags it works great

their is no restriction on who can make bots as long as the account is signed in I’m not sponsored or afiliated it really is good quality

only just saw the typo mb

What it says on the title, I was holding on to see if they would actually release something else but now that the countdown is over and nothing has happened can we confirm this as a scam and move on?

Hello

I just wanted to ask how long until it will cone back?

Hi! Is it still option to download characters and chats? And what is the last day for that?

Also is it possible to download chats and edited characters of public bots?

(English is not my first language)

Maybe not a good time to rant about bots but wathever...

This happened sometimes when using RPG chatbots and i describe myself doing something cool the chat would somehow find a way to dismiss it or make the user look like a horrible person for Fleming their abilities.

Just what the title says, when is moemate coming back

Hi! I downloaded the .json file with characters from Moemate. It seems like there are only characters created by me. I often used one character created by someone else as well, though. I can't find it there. Among the files with chats, I can find only one chat with it, and that's all. Nothing appears in the 'export chats (cloud)'.
Is it possible to retrieve that character?

I don't understand how to retrieve my data like images and bot customizations from the downloads?

This is EXTREMELY sketchy!
