Project N.E.K.O. is an open-source AI companion application — a proactive catgirl-style AI that lives on your desktop, initiates interactions, shares your media, and performs tasks via an embodied emotional engine with human-like memory. It is distributed on Steam and emphasizes owning your own data.

Use cases

  • run an ai companion on my desktop
  • a proactive ai assistant that reaches out to me first
  • ai catgirl companion that watches and plays games with me
  • virtual waifu with long-term memory
  • self-hosted ai companion that keeps my data private
  • ai assistant that can see my screen and help with tasks
  • digital human companion app

When to choose

  • you want a proactive, emotionally expressive AI companion rather than a passive chatbot
  • you want your companion data stored locally / self-owned
  • you want an assistant that can watch, listen, and act across your desktop and mobile screens

When to avoid

  • you need a serious productivity-only assistant without persona or entertainment features
  • you require enterprise-grade reliability or SLAs
  • you dislike anime/catgirl-style personas
