An AI companion app you don’t have to install

Xiaoyu is an AI companion you can open in a browser on your phone or computer. You can try everyday conversation with free energy, without downloading an app or entering a payment card. Sign in when you want account-based history or features that require an account. Xiaoyu is companionship, not therapy.

A browser app you can return to

Open Xiaoyu from a link in a modern browser, or add it to your home screen if your browser supports it. A signed-in account can make retained records available on another device. Guest activity is tied to the browser/device identity and should not be treated as a permanent, cross-device record. Saved history is subject to the retention policy.

Choose conversation, reflection or a story

Small WeChat offers everyday conversation with Xiaoyu or a character you create. “Sort it out” gives you a guided way to explore a tangled feeling; mood check-ins let you review recorded changes. Stories include single-character and ensemble experiences. A story can also lead into an everyday chat: talk to Xiaoyu about what it brought up, or bring the character into Small WeChat with an editable introduction.

Memory has controls and limits

Signed-in memory and retained conversation history can help a later conversation pick up useful context. They are separate from a promise to keep or recall every message. You can manage supported memories, correct an inaccurate recollection and review privacy settings. Account access, retention and the selected conversation window affect continuity.

Free energy and privacy choices

Free energy lets you try the app; consumption varies with the model and text length. Memberships, energy packs and some story features are optional purchases with stated terms. Conversations are processed by the provider or model channel used for the request. If “Allow use to improve the service” is enabled, account-unlinked copies may be reviewed by humans; you can switch this off. Read the privacy policy before sharing sensitive information.
