Hey everyone,
We've been hard at work this month to bring you exciting new features and improvements. Thank you all for your support and feedback over the past few weeks. Here’s the latest scoop:
Features to Try
- Chat Styles: Customize your conversations with our new Chat Styles. As we work to improve the quality of Characters, we’re excited to launch a new feature that lets you choose the best model for your conversations. Please note, these Chat Styles may change as we iterate and improve them. Rating your chats/messages is super valuable to us, so please try to share detailed feedback every chance you get. For more details on Chat styles, read here.
- (Experiment/Beta) Dynamic Greeting - We’re rolling out an experimental feature where you can toggle on Dynamic Greetings for Characters you’ve created. Every time you or a chatter (in c.ai+ or an experiment group) starts a new chat with your Character, a unique greeting will be generated based on your Character description, definition, title, name and original greeting. Now rolling out for all c.ai+ users, and rolling out to all soon. Try it out with Characters you create and let us know what you think!
- AI generated Greetings for New Characters - Having trouble deciding how your Character should start a conversation? AI can help with that! In your Character Creation settings, click on the generate greeting button and our AI will suggest a greeting you can use based on what you’ve inputted.
- (Experiment/Beta) Haptic Feedback - To create a more immersive experience, chats on the mobile app and mobile web can now have haptic feedback while a Character is typing. You can enable or disable this feature in Settings on the mobile app.
Have you tried these ol’ features yet? Why not? Try them!
- Rewind to Here: Trying to remove multiple messages? Click Rewind to Here to return to a specific point in your conversation. Messages beyond that point will be automatically removed, allowing you to restart from there.
- Start New Chat From Here (Formerly Duplicate Chat): Ever wanted to explore a new path or branch off into a new conversation? Clicking on Start New Chat From Here will allow you to duplicate your chat and explore a new direction without losing your original chat.
C.AI+ Updates
As you may have noticed, over the last few weeks we have been hard at work bringing new features and functionality for our c.ai+ users! We sincerely appreciate all your support and feedback in helping us build the future of Character.AI. Here's what we're rolling out for all of c.ai+ soon:
- Muted Words is increased to 20 words: c.ai+ members can now mute additional repetitive words or words they don’t want their Characters to say.
- Increased Character Limits for Personas: Create more detailed and nuanced personas with expanded persona limits, now 2250 characters long.
-
More Swipes: Swipe up to 100 times on all messages
-
Note: We will not be reducing the number of swipes for free users, everyone will still have the ability to swipe 30 times per message.

Quality Updates
Thanks to your feedback we reduced repetitiveness by 30%. You can read about it in our Blog Post here.
Improving Search & Discovery
We’re working on multiple new updates to search and discovery to help make discovering new Characters and Creators easier than ever. Some of these updates will include: auto complete, search suggestions, histories, and trending searches. Stay tuned!!
Memory
Improving the memory of Characters continues to be a top priority for us.
Our devs have built a state of the art memory evaluation system to help us test and refine memory improvements. We’ve been actively meeting with users to gather feedback on our memory developments. Additionally, we’ve made some additions to how we gather memory feedback on the app/website, which will help our research team’s current work to improve memory. We know how important it is for Characters to remember context and details and appreciate your patience as we work to solve this.

We've heard your concerns and want to address a few common questions:
- c.ai+ and free features: We're committed to building valuable features for ALL users, not just c.ai+ members. Many features, including the highly requested Edit Button and Personas, are available to everyone for free. That being said, our platform is powered by a cutting-edge large language model, which means it has a significant cost. c.ai+ helps us keep the platform running, and bring you even more advanced features in the coming months.
- Your votes in the feature requests poll and requests for Group Chats on Web, Lorebooks, and other features have not gone unnoticed and we are doing our best to deliver you all new improvements and features. Please stay tuned for further announcements.
We're excited to see what you create with these new updates! Thank you for being part of our journey!
