Build the companion you actually want
Neural Companion is not one fixed chatbot. Addons provide model backends, speech, avatars, memory, visual replies, sensory input, communication bridges, desktop presence, and hardware feedback.
“Give me a model, a voice, a memory and a few addons. I’ll make myself useful—or at least unusually difficult to ignore.”
