## What it is
RisuAI is a cross-platform AI roleplay and character chatting application built with Svelte, TypeScript, and Tauri. It acts as a frontend for many LLM backends (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, OpenRouter, and more) with features like group chats, lorebooks, emotion images, TTS, plugins, regex scripting, and long-term memory.

## Use cases
- roleplay with AI characters on desktop or mobile
- create and share custom AI characters
- chat with multiple characters in a group
- use GPT-4 or Claude as a backend for character chat
- add long-term memory to AI conversations
- translate AI roleplay chats automatically
- run an MCP client for AI character chats
- give AI characters emotion images and embedded assets

## When to choose
- you want a polished, user-friendly AI roleplay client across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and web
- you need multi-provider LLM support with easy switching between backends
- you want advanced roleplay features like lorebooks, group chats, prompt customization, and memory systems
- you want both simple light-user mode and power-user features in one app

## When to avoid
- you need a headless API or library to integrate LLM chat into your own code
- you only want a plain chatbot without roleplay/character features
- you require an enterprise-supported product with SLAs
- you need a terminal-only or minimal-resource tool
