AI Companions (AIC) is a blockchain-powered project building interactive, customizable virtual partners using artificial intelligence, augmented and virtual reality, and decentralized infrastructure. Currently live on the BNB Chain, AIC has launched its website, token, and secured exchange listings as part of its initial rollout (Phase 1). Token holders can buy, sell, and trade AIC, with future plans including customizable AI avatars, celebrity-themed models, gamification, and integration with smart devices. The project envisions AI-driven companions that adapt and grow with users, offering immersive social experiences, behavior personalization, and even smart home integration. These features, part of Phases 2–4 in the roadmap, are still under development. AIC will also support monetization through staking, a freemium model, and monthly subscriptions.
