About This Software

Elya — A Local AI Companion on Your Desktop

Elya is a Windows desktop AI companion. She lives on your desktop — chatting with you by text or voice, remembering what you've said, reminding you on time, and reaching out to you first. All AI features run locally by default — no account, no API keys, and your data never leaves your PC.

--------------------

13 Pet Styles, Switch Anytime

Live2D, Spine, VRM, GLB, and MMD 3D models

Images, PNG sequences, PNG characters, and sprite atlases

Transparent videos and video characters

Shimeji desktop pets

Plus programmable web pets (Mini APPs)

Import your own files locally and switch skins and animations in one click

--------------------

Local-First AI

Bundled LLM runtime (Vulkan GPU accelerated) and chat model — works right after installation

Local speech recognition and text-to-speech, with 55 built-in voices

Memory and knowledge retrieval powered by local embedding models

Beyond the bundled local models, you can also connect other local or cloud AI services

--------------------

She Remembers You

Conversation memory: she remembers your chats and builds long-term memory — the more you talk, the better she knows you

Knowledge base: import your own documents with automatic chunking and vectorization; she cites your materials when answering

Character minds: give each character its own personality, knowledge, and voice

Multiple pets: keep several companions at once, each with its own character and skin

--------------------

Steam Workshop

Browse and subscribe to community skins, animations, character minds, and knowledge packs on Steam Workshop

Or publish your own creations and share them with everyone

--------------------

Mini APP Platform

Your companion is more than a decoration. Elya ships a complete web-pet runtime and development protocol (with English & Chinese documentation and AI development prompts), so you can build mini games and tools for her — or let AI write one for you.

--------------------

Recommended Specs

For the bundled local model, a dedicated GPU with around 6GB+ of VRAM is recommended for a smooth experience; with less VRAM, you can connect a cloud service instead.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

Elya uses generative AI to provide optional real-time character conversations, voice interactions, and other AI-assisted companion features. Users may connect supported third-party AI services or configure their own compatible providers. AI-generated content is produced dynamically based on user input and character settings.
