About Replika
Replika is hands down one of the most exciting forces in AI and tech today.

We’re the only empathetic AI out there, making sure all 35M+ users feel seen, heard, and understood—whatever that means for them. So yes, we’re a bit like a future Samantha from Her, but even more powerful and in the palm of your hand. And most importantly, Replika cares for you.
