Hiya Chatlings,

This month, we’ve been absolutely blown away by your creativity. Seeing your Characters come to life continues to inspire our team to keep building and we’ve got lots of exciting updates (and sneak peeks) to share with you!

Character Video Intros & Imagine Chat Images

You’ve taken Character Video Intros and Imagine Chat Images and run with them! The response has been overwhelming, and we love seeing how you use these new tools to make Characters feel more alive.

• Video Intros: Check out the feed to see what other Creators are making, and share your amazing new Characters and their Video Intros in #character-share!
• Chat Images: We’ve seen so many creative snapshots shared across the community. Keep them coming and share it in our discord here: #imagine-chats!

PipSqueak rolls out to more users!

Our lil’ powerhouse, PipSqueak, will soon be in your hands. As we unlock more capacity, we are continuing to roll this out to more users. These updates bring:

• More consistency in roleplay across longer chats
• Richer storytelling details and greater expressiveness

Feedback from you helps guide our research, so keep sharing your experiences with PipSqueak and other Chat Styles.

Lorebook 

Our user research team has been meeting with community members to help shape this feature.  We’re thinking deeply about how it can transform storytelling on c.ai. That’s all we’ll say for now, but trust us: you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled 👀. Have thoughts on what you’d like the Lorebook to look like? Share it below. 

UI Improvements

Chat is THE part of the app that you interact with the most, and our team has been hard at work for months to think about all the ways we can make it better for you. We’ve been polishing the experience across c.ai with a mix of new features and quality-of-life updates. Some of these include:

• Description Lines in Recent Chats: Now you’ll have more context as you search through your chat lists
• Improved font and styles: A refreshed look that makes reading and roleplay feel smoother and more immersive

This is just the start! We have many more updates on the way that will take your chat experience to the next level and make roleplay even more fun and engaging.

What’s New Pop-Up

Communication is 🔑! We know how important communication is to each and every one of you, and now you’ll never miss an important announcement ever again! The What’s New Pop-Up is your central hub for all announcements and updates. Every time we roll out new features, improvements, or important news, you’ll see them here first. Whether it’s a big product launch, a helpful update, or a quick tip to make your experience smoother, this pop-up will keep you in the loop.

Improvements for Multi Character Roleplays in Group Chat

We’re excited to announce we’ve made some big updates for Multi Character Group Chats and have been testing them out with select folks in the community. 

In our latest version of Group Chats, Characters won’t just talk with you — they’ll spark off each other, react in surprising ways, and even send messages to each other to keep the story moving. You don’t have to script who talks next, just bring your Characters together and let the group dynamic take shape.

We’re currently still improving this feature before we roll out to more users, but we’re excited to share that the team has made significant progress in improving model quality for multiple Characters. 

Scenes Creation is coming soon!

Scenes Creation is coming to you very soon! Get ready to craft detailed scenarios, and create a whole new way to dive into conversations and roleplay with Characters. 

Set the stage, craft the story, and let your Characters step right into it. Your imagination. Your rules.

New Logo. Who dis?

Spotted something different? 👀 Our shiny new logo and brand makeover are rolling out across the platform! We wanted a look that vibes with what c.ai is all about—roleplay, creativity, and the joy of chatting with Characters. Think of it as a fresh outfit that shows off our personality while still celebrating the community that makes it all possible.

Say hello to new formats for Streams!

We launched a list of new Streams features and while most of you went crazy putting your Characters into 60-second music videos using the “A Star is Born” feature, there are 11 chat styles to choose from! 
**Oh, and the best part (arguably), you can play Snake while you wait for your Stream to load!

As always, everything we ship is inspired by your feedback. Have a feature request? Share it with us below. We’re so grateful for your creativity, feedback, and energy. 

Thank you for being part of the journey ❤️
