Persona Chat - AI Characters

A model that follows the scene. Everyday replies stay quick and light. When your story reaches a difficult character moment or a real turning point, Arc hands that message to a model better suited to it, then settles back down again. Nothing to set up and nothing to tune. Choose Arc when you begin a story and it stays with that story.

NEW: VISUAL REFERENCES

Show your character something. Attach a photo from your camera or your library and they answer what is actually in it - a room, an outfit, a place, a look on someone's face. GIFs work too. Leave a couple of ordinary exchanges between pictures, so a scene stays a scene rather than a slideshow.

MEMORY & LORE

Long stories no longer lose the small details:

• Living Memory keeps precise facts from earlier chapters: promises, secrets, relationships, and threads left hanging
• Your Lorebook is where you write down what you want remembered - a family tie, the border between two kingdoms, the name of a pet
• Both are recalled only when they are relevant, so nothing crowds the conversation
• Choose whether an entry applies to one story or to every chat with that character
• All of it stays on your device
