Questions

Is WaifuAI free?

Yes. WaifuAI is free and open source under the MIT-0 license. The hosted version includes a free LLM and free text-to-speech, so there is nothing to pay for and no trial to expire.

Do I need an account to use WaifuAI?

No. There is no sign-up, no email and no login. Open the app and start chatting. Your conversations and settings are stored in your own browser.

Does WaifuAI work on a phone?

Yes. WaifuAI runs in the mobile browser with a layout built for small screens. There is no app to install on Android or iOS.

Can I use my own AI model?

Yes. Bring your own OpenRouter API key and pick any model it offers, or point WaifuAI at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint, including a local one. See the provider docs.

Does my AI waifu remember our conversations?

Yes. WaifuAI keeps conversation memory and a customizable persona, so your companion stays consistent between sessions. Memory lives in your browser, not on a server.

Can I change the character, voice and background?

Yes. Several Live2D models ship with the app, and you can change the voice and language, the background image, and the persona from the settings panel.
