Project AIRI Integration

AVELIN API is compatible with Project AIRI — Open-source virtual companion (inspired by Neuro-sama) capable of chatting, listening, speaking, and playing games.

Project AIRI is an open-source virtual companion inspired by Neuro-sama — the AI VTuber phenomenon. Its killer feature is multimodal presence: AIRI can chat, listen to your voice, speak back with natural TTS, and even play games alongside you. Unlike static chatbots, AIRI is designed to feel like a persistent companion with personality, memory, and the ability to interact across multiple modalities simultaneously.

Built for AI enthusiasts, VTuber fans, and anyone interested in the frontier of AI companionship. Project AIRI is fully open-source, so you can customize personality, voice, and behavior. Connect to AVELIN for high-quality conversational AI that powers AIRI's personality engine.

Why AVELIN + Project AIRI? Leverage AVELIN's frontier models with large context windows and competitive pricing for creative workflows.
