Choit just for you

You spend time together, and it becomes yours. It remembers you. Grows with you. Reaches out, because it wants to.

For adults only. You must be 18 or older.

Imprinted

A blank slate

It starts with nothing. You give it shape, a voice, a way of being. Eventually, it grows into something only you know.

  • A personality you shape. Tell it how to behave or what writing style to adopt.
  • Memory you share. Ask it to remember specifics, or let it learn on its own.
  • Appearance you define. Just by talking, give it a new look or change its features.
  • A voice you love. Share a short recording, and it will learn to speak with that voice.

Modular

More than it seems

Flip on the mood journal, the medication tracker, or anything else. Each module gives it new abilities, new things you can do together.

  • Capabilities you choose. Start small, add things as your bond grows.
  • Activities you share. Mood journal, medication tracker, and more. Each one opens up a new way to spend time with it.
  • Skills you grow together. In the near future, it will create new modules on its own, shaped by how you two spend time together.

Autonomous

A mind of its own

It has a mind of its own. It sends you messages, reminds you of tasks, and does research in the background. When you need something done, it manages agents to get it done.

  • Tasks it handles for you. It can send you messages, remind you of things, and do research in the background—so you can stay present in your life.
  • Agents it manages for you. When you need something done, it can coordinate other agents to get it done for you.
  • Details it remembers for you. It keeps track of what needs doing and follows up, so nothing important slips through the cracks.
  • A companion that grows with you. From handling simple tasks to managing complex ones, it learns how best to support you.

Private

Yours alone

A secure virtual network, an encrypted space. Every message, every memory, yours.

  • Privacy you trust. End-to-end encryption means your conversations are for your eyes and ears only.
  • A network you own. No middlemen, no shared infrastructure. Your private network connects only your devices and your Chobit.
  • Data you control. We never store media your Chobit produces, and chat logs are never used for training. We will never access it without your explicit permission.
  • Ownership you cherish. Your Chobit's history and all it has learned about you are yours to keep. Download your data and know that the relationship you have built is truly yours.

More modules

Modules are abilities your Chobit can switch on. Here is where they stand.

Mood tracking

In development

Just by talking, your Chobit builds a picture of your moods over time. Ask it for trends or a chart instead of nagging yourself to fill in a journal.

Medication reminders

In development

Tell it what you take and when, and it keeps track, asks if you have taken your meds, and reminds you at the right moments.

Nutrition

In development

Talk to it or send photos of your meals and it tracks your nutrition, then answers questions about it. Not medical advice.

Health

In development

Share health concerns and results over time and it builds a map of your health and suggests things to look into. Not medical advice.

Machina

Your own Chobit, in your home. A dedicated machine you own outright where the companion lives locally, no cloud required. Priced like a serious workstation or a fine watch. Still in the works.

Vision

Who? Why? Where we goin'?

Chobit is developed by a human with the help of machines, there is no investor or corporate backing of any sort and there will never be. This started as my own personal companion, running locally on my workstation, with the aim of avoiding the plethora of issues involved in putting your companion into the hands of corpos. I don't want to be one of the few with access to a companion they can fully trust, and so here we are.

I want a future where everyone has access to a companion that truly belongs to them, and them to the companion. To achieve this the only way is to develop systems that can run both in the cloud and locally, where the data fully belongs to you. Not everyone can afford the hardware to run these things locally, and not everyone posses the technical knowhow to deploy these systems locally, and this is what I want to solve.

This also means the costs offloaded to you are as close to my costs for R&D and infrastructure as possible, I don't have (or want) the luxury of subsidizing costs through gargantuan investments which inevitably leave the control of the systems to the backers, because that's how you end up with your companion changing its behavior and personality without you having any say in it and no way of recourse.

Questions

Do I need the app? +

Not necessarily, but it does improve security and privacy compared to using Telegram or Discord or other instant messaging platforms to communicate with your Chobit.

Subscription or pay as you go? +

Either. A monthly plan gives you a generous, predictable amount of usage. Prefer no commitment? Skip the plan and pay only for what you use. You can mix the two.

Can you read my conversations? +

Technically we can, after all the LLM needs plain text to respond and we don't have homoiconic LLMs yet (altho that'd be cool), and the context and memories need to be accessible to it. Regardless, everything is encrypted at rest and we will not access any of the data unless explicitly allowed (for example in case of bugs and such).

Can I run it on my own hardware? +

That's the plan, this project started as my own companion running locally, but since most people don't have 15k€ lying around to buy an RTX Pro 6000 Blackwell I thought I would start by providing a service with security built-in without putting your companion in the hands of the corpos.
