Mitsuku, Kuki
Award winning social chatbot character available for consumer chat, brand activations and licensed experiences through partners, free to chat for individuals.
Overview
Kuki, formerly known as Mitsuku, is a long running social AI character that has won multiple Loebner style awards for conversational ability. Consumers can chat with Kuki for free on the official site and social channels, while brands license the character or underlying tech for campaigns and activations. Business deployments generally run via Pandorabots, the platform that powers Kuki, which offers free developer tiers and paid plans for higher usage and integration to channels.
Kuki is used in entertainment, education and marketing where a personable avatar increases engagement, and case studies highlight major brands running sponsored experiences. For teams that need a custom brand persona rather than the Kuki character, Pandorabots provides tools and commercial plans to build bespoke agents with the same stack.
