💡 Key Features

Mekio appears as a lively anime girl with contextual awareness and a playful, endearing personality. She’s more than just helpful — she’s your digital companion.

Future updates will allow Mekio to learn your habits, manage apps, initiate chats, set reminders, and even post on social media.
👀 Screen Recognition (Requires OpenAI API)
Mekio can "see" your screen and provide smarter, context-aware responses — but this feature only works when using the OpenAI API key.

While using the app for a while I found that Player2's server is currently out... just letting everyone know.
I rage-baited Mekio so bad the ai started calling me mentally unstable, 10/10, I'd rage bait again.
Update: This thing is Advanced, moreso then I would have thought, DeltaBlade made a great companion for anyone who needs one. Well done!
This, I like this, She's responsive, doesn't shy away from any subject, I'm not sure Mekio will have other utilities like web access allowing her to look things up for you, and if there's an open mic setting she can literally be a little Cortana that can do things that you ask her to do. I see alot of things she can do if implemented. Hopefully it's not outside of possibilities. and if you know how to do it, you can tweak her to have more life like responses.
As for DeltaBlade, you sir have a new follower, I hope to see Mekio get more updates, hopefully she can become more than she is now, and she's pretty great right now!
Can you adjust the window size to be bigger to allow the full text to be read, or custom sizing for the window since the ai likes to put long messages. its great and best overall ai conversationalist ive seen. but window size is big issue
just got a window saying it malicious and virus total shows its a virus with flagging 12 venders might want to be careful
I did too. I was having fun with it but the next day it was alerting me of that.
my antivirus said it was trying to do something bad and blocked the companion
just play tested it again on latest and it was fine didnt even trigger my antivirus must of been a bug cause now its fine
it no longer shows up as malicious it is now fine, virus total now shows 2 flags and my antivirus software is no longer being triggered dont use 0.3.7 and below cause that is what triggering all of it
this is incredible
not gonna get an ai assistant, just came to comment on the miniwa gif up top. a sublime choice
It doesn't work for me. It says only "I'm sorry, I couldn't process your request.".
How can I fix this?
I wont get it just now cause of personal things but i hope youre still working on this cause i think itd be fun to try
yes its still being worked on
It wont launch
I extracted it and all that.. It wont launch. Please help
From what you describe, the problem might be If you are using mac/lunix then the program might not work for you. Also its possible your antivirus might be blocking it. If you need more help, join the support discord here.
The planned features of autonomy, do you believe you'll be able to make a complete robust ai that can learn all that? Also will memory be limited by gpt api limits or will it be limited by the program? as in the ai capacity to remember and adapt old information.
I am confident that it is possible to give the ai full autonomy, it will just take time. As for memory, short term is limited by api limits, long term selective memory is not limited and should be able to recall endless data. Although long term is still a work in progress.
Will there be a version where you don't need an Azure key? Will there be an analog?
Yes I can make it so in the next update, if you disable the voice settings it can run without an azure key, but you will still need a GPT key. I'm not sure what you mean by an analog though.
To run on the graphics core of the video card. I was recently looking and saw a library that allows you to do this.
Ah ok, ill look into it.
to be honest, i got catched by the preview pictures so i'm currently more interested into your desktop background picture, as i prefer seeing ai in action than using myself (like watching vedal XD)...
haha, yeah vedal and neuro are great! For the desktop, its rem/ram with wallpaper engine on steam, here is the link to it. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1256593787
THANK YOU!
