A world, not a chatbot
Pick a real or fictional city. Persona generates a cast of characters who already know each other — friendships, rivalries, marriages — before you arrive.
Cities & Worlds
Characters who live in their own city, remember everything, and stay on your machine.
Persona is a desktop app for macOS and Windows. You run it on your machine, you bring your own AI provider keys, and you talk to characters who live in a city you chose. They have personalities, relationships, memories, and the ability to send you photos, voice notes, and short videos.
Nothing about your conversations is uploaded to a Persona server, because there isn't one. Inference goes straight from your computer to whichever provider you've configured.
