AI Companion
Anika
A personal AI companion designed to observe, remember, and grow alongside you.
About the Project
Designing a companion that grows through understanding
Anika is a personal AI companion designed to evolve alongside its user over time.
Instead of focusing on one-off responses, the system emphasizes long-term interaction, memory, and behavioral awareness to build a sense of continuity.
Running on a Raspberry Pi 5, Anika supports natural voice interaction and persistent memory, allowing it to observe patterns and adapt gradually.
This project is an ongoing exploration of how personal, always-on AI systems can offer meaningful perspective through continued use.
