What Bae is
Bae is an AI companion builder from ppl.studio. You pick a shape from a hand-written library of 27 archetypes (or take a two-minute quiz and get matched), generate a consistent phone-style face, set a personality register and choose the name they call you. About three minutes, and no sign-up, login or card to start.
Why it exists
Most companion apps reset every session. Bae is built around memory that holds: your name, your week, the things you said once, carried across months and brought back unprompted. Closeness deepens through six relationship stages that are earned by talking, never gamified with streaks.
Pricing
- Free to build and talk every day, with real AI selfies (the same face every time)
-
- Pro from $2.99/week or $99/year, 3-day free trial: unlimited messages, permanent memory, every stage
Honest by design
Bae publishes a 14-day hands-on benchmark of twelve companion apps and ranks itself against them, never sells conversations, and offers one-tap delete-everything. Web app, works in any browser, PWA-installable.
Who it is for
People who want one companion that deepens over time rather than a roster of characters: Bae is gendered (girlfriend or boyfriend), monogamous by design, and anonymous by default until you choose to save your companion with an email. Adult content exists only as an opt-in, per-companion, 18+ Spicy mode on Pro, and it is off by default.
Privacy
Conversations are never sold or licensed to other AI labs. Delete everything with one tap at any time.
