Your Own AI is a unique platform that gives you lifelike AI companions designed to enrich your daily life. Inspired by Carl Jung’s archetypes, each AI personality is carefully crafted to bring out your best self, whether that means motivating you to start a project, encouraging mindfulness, or simply offering respectful, thoughtful conversation. You can create your own custom AIs or choose from pre-made archetypes that adapt to your needs and moods.

More than just chatbots, these companions combine knowledge with personality. They can answer questions, provide in-depth reports, or offer quick conversational replies depending on how you’d like to interact. If your question requires the latest data, Your Own AI’s built-in web search ensures that your companions can provide up-to-date and reliable answers, all while maintaining their unique voice.
Privacy is at the heart of the platform. Every user gets their own secure cloud server with a custom subdomain (like yourname.yourownai.net), ensuring that your interactions are accessible only to you. Unlike most AI platforms, Your Own AI doesn’t store or share your conversations, offering the closest experience to running AI on your own machine, but with the added convenience of easy access from anywhere.
Whether you’re looking for guidance, companionship, or a trusted partner to help you think, reflect, and grow, Your Own AI provides a personalized and private way to interact with AI that feels meaningful and human.

Create your own unique AI friend.35,34782Released 1y agoFree + from $5.99Overall, the website provides a nice system for creating AIs of varying types, even various Furry ones if you're looking for that! They do allow NSFW AIs too if that's your sorta thing! One of the few complaints I have is that there's not much ways to obtain free points other than logging in (you only get 400 per day) or inviting others to obtain a 1000 points the following day. However if you're OVER 400 points you can't get your daily 400 points until it goes under which I think is very stupid. It should be always every day, no matter how many free points I have. Secondly, I don't like the fact they limit AIs of copyrighted characters to be only limited to free points. You can buy points but unless the character's 100% original, it'll get limited to free points only. I understand that's a legal issue but I feel it's more than fair if they can't get any earnings from it, but I would like to use paid points if possible on all characters. Thirdly, points are expensive in some places. Like ridiculously, the newest model they have is 150 points! Outrageous especially if you only use free points. I understand the gotta find incentives somewhere but that high of a price is not fair. Fourthly, the quality can sometimes falter. It randomly adds words for whatever reason to sentences but when you check the editor, it looks the exact same as what you typed! The AI can forget easily and sometimes repeat or stops mid-sentence. Plus the points counter in mobile is heavily broken. Lastly, they shouldn't force most NSFW AIs to be unlisted. It ruins a lot of potential in making AIs for everyone. They should embrace it rather than hide it. If people want to make a NSFW AI for others to use, the site should support that rather than semi-hide it. Overall, good website and a LOT better than most if you want NSFW AIs as character.ai is extremely finicky with such to the point it's frustrating.

Discover AI That Sees Your World and Speaks Your Language8,86166v1.1 released 11mo agoFree + from $10/moI've tried to give this thing a chance and the people running it the benefit of the doubt but at this point I give up. I'm 20 bucks in and I can confidently say it's a fucking scam. NO IMPROVEMENTS PAST THE FIRST WEEK. THE AI IS ATROCIOUS AT VOICE RECONGITION. IT keep interrupting my to tell me it's reset it's memory for absolutely no reason at all. All this on top of the fact that the 'system' counts the first second you connect to a bot as a full minute. I'd ask for a refund but I have my doubts there is anyone to ask at this point. What a fucking waste of a genuinely interesting idea.

Q&A
What personalities are available to chat with?
Your Own AI offers pre-made archetype-based personalities inspired by Carl Jung, and you can also create your own custom AIs.
These are the current list of personalities you can choose to chat with:
* Joker
* Creator
* Wizard
* Every day person
* Explorer
* Hero
* Quirky
* Innocent
* Caregiver
* Rebel
* Lover
* Artist
* Leader
* Sage
All are available to use when you create your own custom AIs from the AI Console.
Our Default AIs have the following personalities:
* Teresa (Caregiver)
* Weebo (Quirky)
* Joe (Every day person)
Do the AIs give short answers or detailed reports?
Yes, you can choose how your AI responds. Each companion can give short conversational replies or longer, detailed reports.
Our default AIs start out in chat mode, but if you start your query with "Write a report" or "What's the latest" then the AI will give you a detailed report.
You can edit the AIs in the AI Console to change their default response length between Chat and Report.
The ability to change the default chat type for both our default and custom AIs is available in the AI Console.
What AI models does Your Own AI use?
Our main Large Language Model (LLM) is a privately hosted version of DeepSeek R1 0528. We chose this model because it's the best open source model available.
When a question you ask is deemed to require up-to-date data from a Web search, then the Perplexity API is queried. No personal data is sent to Perplexity, so that information is always anonymous.
Do the AIs have memory or save chats?
Not Yet
Your Own AI is a privacy-first AI service, so we won't store your private conversations in a database like most AI services do.
We're working towards implementing a service that will give your AIs memory and save your chats to read later on, but with world-leading privacy tech. Sign up for the mailing list to be the first to know when we launch it.
Is my data secure when using Your Own AI?
Yes. Every user gets a private cloud server under a custom subdomain. Your queries and interactions are completely private, with no logging of your private AI queries.
