Show HN: Deskmate Live – AI Desktop Pet Companions

https://deskmatelive.com/
1•valisvalis•1h ago
We launched last week on 4chan and have been building fast ever since, integrating new features and new avatars. Our idea is to make desktop pets not only cute, but useful. They can serve as a language partner, help with homework or quickly help with whatever's happening on your screen. Plus, of course, they can just chat with you when you're a bit lonely or want to bounce ideas around as well. You can check out the website at:

deskmatelive.com

Or at the MS store: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9nptrhhn696k?hl=neutral&gl...

People forget desktop mascots never really died. Shimeji's still going, the Android versions still pull a surprising number of users. The recent wave of interest with Codex Pets shows that people want this, but nobody had built a good one with real AI in it yet. So we're taking this to the next level with realtime AI.

We're looking for a cofounder from Asia to build this with the team, if you believe in this idea send us hello: contact@deskmate.online
