What it does

PolyBuzz is an AI character chat app for roleplay with characters made by its community or by you. Its library covers anime, games, celebrities, original characters and story genres, and the web version also offers image generation and short drama stories. Chats can use several AI models, voices and memory options, and creators can upload character cards from other platforms. The website polybuzz.ai is operated by Singularity Mutual Entertainment Culture Media Limited in Hong Kong. The terms of use require users to be 18 or older. In October 2026 the iPhone app stopped being listed on the App Store, while the website and the Android app remained available.
