That's not what the numbers coming from some of these companies say — for example, chai app, publicly shares that their W52 retention is 20%.

So, 20% of users who send a message just retain forever.

I think the companion market is probably the most overlooked market in AI. Character AI is the most used AI app after ChatGPT worldwide, and generally what all the teens associate AI with.

I am seeing companies like Dippy AI (character ai competitor for gen-z) scale from 0->10M+ users rapidly without many people noticing.

how do you plan to compete with Dippy AI? They have a similar thesis and a better design imo

It's powered by our custom model

here's the information — https://tryimpel.com

I’ve found impel (https://tryimpel.com) to work extraordinarily well till now

I have been using their beta for the past two weeks and it's pretty good. Like I am watching youtube videos and it just pops up automatically.

I don't know if it's public yet, but they sent me this video with the invite: https://youtu.be/dXvhGwj4yGo

That's impel - https://tryimpel.com

That's why my friends and I built the Align API (https://alignapi.com) to detect NSFW, Sensitive Prompts etc. It's such a widespread issue and can get you kicked out from the App Store/Play Store/Open AI API etc

Reminds me of one of my favourite quotes by Huxley:

"If you’re to do anything reasonable in this world, you must have a class of people who are secure, safe from public opinion, safe from poverty, leisured, not compelled to waste their time in the imbecile routines that go by the name of Honest Work. You must have a class of which the members can think and, within the obvious limits, do what they please. You must have a class in which people who have eccentricities can indulge them and in which eccentricity in general will be tolerated and understood. That’s the important thing about an aristocracy. Not only is it eccentric itself—often grandiosely so; it also tolerates and even encourages eccentricity in others"

Hey HN,

I am releasing Vatic — a cutting edge text to video tool that can help you make stunning animations like [these](https://imgur.com/a/7nylak8) within seconds.

You can draw inspiration, visualize your dreams, make a short film and more using mere words.

Would appreciate any feedback from the community!

Been debating whether I should put my identity on the landing page or not — do you think it would be more appealing to a potential seller? I don't see how, but could be wrong

98% of developers account for only 5% of revenue! Crazy!

I would say things are starting to look good even for India. Check out Raji the game ,which imo is high quality and looks interesting. The gaming movement in India got a big boost after PUBG, COD, etc. but ofcourse it’s still in a very nascent stage.

They already pretty much do

This is not true.

Hi,

College student here who was surprised how much journalling apps cost so I decided to build one myself! It’s completely free, and will NEVER have a subscription model in the future. I would greatly appreciate any feedback from the community as I will be updating it constantly in the coming months.
