Powering AI characters in experiences from:
Real-Time Generative AI
Optimized for performance and scale
Every millisecond counts in real-time experiences. Built by the team behind Dialogflow (Google’s conversational AI platform used by millions of developers), Inworld is production-ready and designed to scale instantly without any additional configuration.

Character Engine
Power expression with multimodal AI
Put personality at the center of your AI to enable increased immersion and connection. Distinct character personalities can be configured in minutes using natural language and simple controls.
AI characters express personalities through multimodal AI designed to mimic the full range of human communication, both verbal and non-verbal – including voice, gestures, expressions, and actions.

Personality
Create distinct personalities for your AI characters by describing them in natural language
Emotions
Characters express emotion in response to users. Emotions can be mapped to animations, goals, and triggers.
Real-Time Voices
Use built-in voices for minimal latency or integrate third-party services like Eleven Labs.
Goals & Actions
Use client-defined triggers or activate goals through intent recognition or motivations.
Contextual Mesh
Stay in-world or on-brand
Context matters when it comes to interactions with AI. An e-commerce business and AAA game need different models.
Set parameters for content and safety mechanisms, custom knowledge, and narrative controls to give each interaction a personalized context that makes sense for your user and experience.

Knowledge
Add shared lore and personal knowledge characters should have about their worlds, contexts, and backgrounds.
Configurable Safety
Conversational safety varies by use case, determine yourself what topics characters are able to discuss.
Player Profiles
Add personalized interactions with characters that can remember players, relationships, and context.
4th Wall
Characters only draw from elements and knowledge that exist in their worlds, avoiding hallucinations that break immersion.
AI characters for interactive experiences
Gaming
Create more believable worlds with AI-driven NPCs. NPCs that can think, talk, and act for themselves take immersion to the next level.
Entertainment
Let fans interact with their favorite characters in a whole new way. Living characters and digital twins can engage dynamically without ever breaking character.
Brands & Customer Experience
Create empathetic brand ambassadors and customer service agents. Your new virtual team can go off script but remain on-brand.
Training & Education
Power personalized learning experiences, interactive simulations, and gamified learning with AI characters
