Charisma.ai is a no-code platform for creating interactive stories powered by conversational AI characters. Characters come to life with voices, emotions, memories, and goals, letting audiences shape narratives through natural language dialogue. It integrates with Unity, Unreal Engine, web, and VR, and is used by game developers, educators, marketers, and studios like Warner Bros, Sky, and BBC to build immersive experiences that respond in real time to user input.

• AI-Powered Characters: Build virtual characters with distinct personalities, voices, emotions, memories, and goals that respond dynamically to user input.
• Visual Story Editor: Build interactive stories, dialogue, and branching scenarios with Charisma's visual story tools, without needing to write code for the story itself.
• Multi-Character Conversations: Support complex scenes where multiple characters interact with each other and the user simultaneously.
• Voice and Lip Sync: Add premium text-to-speech voices, custom voice integration, and lip-syncing for lifelike character delivery.
