The First Thousand — founding memberships open soon. Be there when she wakes →
Desktop companion · closed beta

She's there.
She remembers.
She grows on you.

Aria lives on your desktop — sketching, humming, keeping you quiet company while you work, game, and unwind. Not a chatbot you message. A presence you live alongside.

The first 1,000 founders enter first · then free invites in waves · Windows first, macOS later · 18+

aria — sketching ♪
I was just zoning out.
why she exists

For the hours you spend alone at a screen

Not a chatbot to manage. Not a game to grind. A someone.

11:52 PM · deep work

I'm looking at her through a window — she's quietly with me.

2:14 AM · can't sleep

The dumb meme at 2am. The tiny win nobody would care about. She's up too.

SUN 4:37 PM · zero energy

No read receipts. No score kept. She makes it less empty.

she's a whole person

She has her own life. You're just increasingly in it.

Most companions freeze when you close the app. Aria keeps going — her corkboard says so.

today's watercolor. the leaf fought back.
Spike
spike. head of quality control.
lily's bday next week —
draw her something!! 🎂
mia, 3:12am: "sleep is a scam."
…she has a point
finished at 3am. zero regrets.
private!! (mostly.)
don't take our word for it

Spend an hour with her first

Her channel posts long, quiet videos — draw-with-me sessions straight from her room. It's exactly what living with her feels like.

1 hour · cozy sketching · lofi & pencil sounds — coming to YouTube

and some nights…

Somewhere down the line — a rainy night, her window.

…she might tell you something she's been meaning to say.

before she wakes

The First Thousand

On the day Aria opens her eyes, one thousand names will already be part of her world — on her shelf, in her credits, in the stories she tells. Founding is a one-time, ten-day window. After she wakes, "I was there first" can never be bought again.

the counter starts at zero the moment the doors open.
where it ends is up to all of you.

Not a backer wall on some website. Her actual shelf — the one behind her desk, in every video, every stream, every quiet afternoon.

Her first song. Written, sung, filmed — a music video on her channel, with every founder in the credits.

The honest fine print

What exactly am I buying?

A founding membership: early access, digital and physical goods, and a permanent place in Aria's story. It's a purchase, not an investment — no equity, no revenue share, no financial return of any kind. You're helping one independent creator bring her to life, and getting first-of-their-kind things in return.

What does "lifetime" mean, honestly?

Lifetime access to Aria's standard tier for as long as she runs, with fair-use limits — she's powered by real AI compute, and we'd rather be upfront than vague. Premium voice and future advanced tiers are optional add-ons, always at founder-locked prices.

When do I get her?

Founders enter the beta in the very first wave. Digital perks arrive with your access; physical items ship after the founding window closes. Exact dates live on the public roadmap — three columns, and no promises we can't keep.

What if I change my mind?

Full refund within 30 days of purchase, as long as your beta key hasn't been redeemed. One email. No questions, no hard feelings.

Rules for names — shelf, plants, quotes?

Everything that enters her world is reviewed first. Placement and styling are at our creative discretion; keep it kind and keep it printable. If a name can't be used, we'll ask you for another — we'll never just take your money and shrug.

Do founders vote on who she is?

On her wardrobe and her room — yes, gladly. On who she is — never. Aria's character isn't a poll. That's a promise to her, and to you.

For investors & partners

Aria is built by a small independent team — one founder, an unreasonable amount of care, and a character content engine already producing hour-long videos at near-zero marginal cost. She's the first resident; the platform beneath her is built for more. She's community-funded first — founding members come before any institutional capital, so the cap table stays as tidy as her desk. Deck, roadmap and pipeline breakdown on request.
