Early Access Software

Get involved with this software as it develops.

Note: This Early Access software is not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to use this software in its current state, then you should wait to see if it progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Q-Rely is a local AI application designed to run on a wide range of PC environments.

However, performance and compatibility can vary depending on factors such as the AI model being used, GPU, VRAM, CPU, and voice systems.

Through Early Access, we want to have users run Q-Rely on as many different PC configurations as possible so that we can identify and improve compatibility, performance, and unexpected issues.

Q-Rely is also designed to grow together with its community. We want to collect feedback and feature requests from users and use them to guide future updates and improvements.”

Approximately how long will this software be in Early Access?

“Depending on the feedback we receive, we currently expect Early Access to last for approximately one month.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version already includes the core AI Friend experience of Q-Rely.

You can use features such as emotions, personality, memory, voice interaction, screen analysis, and local AI models.

For the full version, we plan to further improve stability and usability based on feedback received during Early Access, while adding new AI models, voices, customization options, and features related to AI reactions and memory.

The exact features and content of future updates may change based on user feedback and the results of technical testing.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core features of Q-Rely are already implemented in the current Early Access version.

The current version allows users to run local AI models, customize the AI's personality and profile, use voice input and text-to-speech, analyze their screen, and interact with an AI that has its own dynamic emotion system. The AI's emotional state can change based on interactions and influence its responses.

For a detailed list of the features currently available, please refer to the "About This Software" section of the store page.

We are currently testing Q-Rely with users on a variety of different Windows PC environments. So far, Q-Rely has been working properly in the environments we have tested.

During Early Access, we will continue testing Q-Rely across different PC environments, improving stability and usability, and making improvements based on user feedback.
”

Will this software be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“No. The price will remain the same after Early Access ends.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Q-Rely is designed to grow together with its community.

We welcome all kinds of feedback, including your experience using Q-Rely, hardware and software configurations, bug reports, performance issues, and ideas for new features.

In particular, reports from different GPUs, CPUs, VRAM configurations, AI models, and voice systems will help us make Q-Rely work reliably across a wider range of PCs.

If there is a feature you would like to see, or something you think could be easier to use, please let us know. Your feedback will help shape future updates and features.

You can share your feedback through the Steam Community Hub, reviews, and other community channels.”

About This Software

Q-Rely: AI Friend

Your AI. Your Friend.

Q-Rely is a local AI friend that runs on your PC.

It’s more than a chatbot. Q-Rely combines emotions, personality, memory, voice, and screen analysis to create an AI that can spend time with you.

From the AI model and voice to its appearance and UI, you can customize the experience to make it your own.

❤️ An AI with Emotions

Q-Rely has 8 different emotions:

Joy / Anger / Sadness / Fear / Surprise / Embarrassment / Confusion / Boredom

Its emotions change based on conversations and events, influencing how it responds to you.

When its emotions reach their limits, your AI might even faint.

Q-Rely also supports character sprites that change with its emotions.

🧠 Personality & Memory

Customize your AI's personality, speaking style, character settings, and more.

Q-Rely supports:

  • Short-term memory

  • Long-term memory

  • Remembering your preferences and information

  • Remembering information about the AI itself

  • Editing and deleting memories

You can also keep AI models, settings, and memories completely separate for each profile.

🤖 Use the Local AI You Want

Bring your own compatible local AI models and switch between models whenever you want.

Choose powerful models for higher-quality responses or lightweight models to fit your PC and your needs.

Your PC. Your model. Your choice.

🎙️ Talk with Your Voice

Q-Rely supports both voice input and voice output.

Use multiple TTS and voice systems to choose from a variety of voices.

Voice-cloning-based voices are also supported.

Talk to your AI naturally — and hear it talk back.

👁️ Your AI Can See & Hear

Q-Rely isn't limited to conversation.

It can understand what's happening on your PC through:

  • Screen analysis

  • Audio & environmental sound analysis

  • Game screen recognition

  • Reactions to what's happening

Your AI doesn't just respond to what you say.

It can also react to what you're doing.

🌎 Multilingual Support

Set your AI response language and UI language independently.

For example:

UI: Japanese
AI: English

You can mix and match languages to create the experience you want.

🖥️ Make the UI Your Own

Customize Q-Rely's interface to fit your setup.

Change its size, position, visibility, and more.

Show only what you need — or keep everything visible.

⚙️ Designed Around Your PC

Q-Rely is designed to run with around 4 GB of VRAM as a guideline.

It can monitor available VRAM and adjust its operation based on the resources available on your PC.

Set a VRAM usage threshold and Q-Rely can automatically switch between:

High-Speed Mode ↔ Low-Speed Mode

This makes it possible to run your AI Friend while playing games.

🧩 Steam Workshop

Create your own AI and share it through Steam Workshop.

Use AI creations made by other users, or customize them to make them your own.

Create. Share. Meet.

🎨 Create Your AI

AI model. Personality. Emotions. Voice. Character. Memory. Language. UI. VRAM usage.

Q-Rely is an AI Friend built around you.

It's not just another chatbot.

It's your AI, living on your PC.

Your AI. Your Friend.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Q-Rely uses locally running artificial intelligence to provide interactive AI-generated responses during use. The AI can generate text responses based on the user's input and, depending on the user's configuration, can also generate voice output using locally installed Text-to-Speech (TTS) engines.

Generative AI was used during development to assist in creating the application's logo. The logo is a fixed visual asset and is not generated or modified by generative AI during use of the application.

Q-Rely does not use generative AI to create the application's default character artwork, backgrounds, or other visual assets during use. The application's AI-generated content is primarily conversational text and, when voice output is enabled, synthesized speech.

Q-Rely is designed to allow users to run AI models locally on their own computer. Users can select and install compatible AI models and configure the application's AI and voice settings according to their preferences.
