Genies

We're building the character layer for AI.

But what does that actually mean?

We're giving developers, creators, and brands the tools to bring AI characters to life across apps, games, and websites.

Here's what that could look like:

💬 Customizable AI assistants that remember you, express themselves, and interact beyond text

🏋️ Virtual fitness coaches that demonstrate exercises and guide you through workouts

🐥 Brand mascots that come to life as product experts, storytellers, and playable characters

🎤 Artist experiences where fans can chat 1:1, discover new music, and unlock exclusive content

📚 AI tutors that teach through visual lessons and adapt to each student's pace

🏀 Virtual athletes that share live stats, answer questions, and challenge fans to mini-games

🎮 Intelligent NPCs that converse, react, and interact with players in real time

And plenty more.

We'd love to hear how Genies can power your product: genies.com :)

So, what should we name him?

Many realistic AI avatar tools are built to replicate someone’s likeness or make an AI assistant feel like a real person.

That push for realism comes with tradeoffs. Deepfakes can pass for real footage, almost-human faces can feel uncanny, and lifelike avatars leave you wondering who’s actually speaking.

We’ve always believed AI characters should look and feel stylized.

A stylized design makes it clear you’re interacting with a character. It allows the personality or platform to bring their character to life as a tool to reach more fans and in new ways, while staying in control of how the character shows up.

Whether you’re creating a Genie for an artist or athlete, building an assistant, companion, or mascot, the idea is the same: an AI character should extend the original personality, not replace it.
