About This Software

What is Desktop Mate?

Customize your PC with officially licensed, super-cute characters using the next-generation desktop mascot platform Desktop Mate. Powered by the latest 3D technology, characters roam your desktop, sitting on windows, jumping between them, and playfully interacting with your mouse.

Why use Desktop Mate?

Desktop Mate is a customizable platform that lets users add a wide variety of cute characters to their desktop environment. The core software is free, but you can further personalize your desktop by purchasing additional characters. Popular characters will continue to appear as officially licensed DLC in the future, so stay tuned!

Simple, Smart, and Full of Charm

Desktop Mate is designed with one goal in mind: bringing out the full charm of your favorite characters. That’s why we’ve kept it simple—stripping away unnecessary features to create a clean, easy-to-use experience.

  • Characters move gracefully across your desktop, sitting adorably on windows or gently hopping between them with lifelike motion.

  • They’ll play with your mouse, follow your cursor, and react in irresistibly cute ways.

  • Connect Desktop Mate to your alarms and turn time management into a delightful daily routine.

Every feature is carefully crafted to ensure the characters never get in your way—so you can enjoy them for hours on end, without distraction. Whether you're working, studying, or just relaxing, Desktop Mate is your perfect digital companion.
