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.

The ultimate AI life assistant, mentor, therapist, friend. Whatever you need, really, Replika is there for you. Right now, we’re rebranding with one of the world’s top design agencies, scaling our global team, and pushing human-AI connection further than ever. We’re the humanists in AI. And we’re making sure it’s done right.
