Guide
Build it yourself, or with us

Forward-deployed engineers wire Sonzai into your product.

Self-build with the SDK, or bring in our engineers to integrate the relational harness directly into your codebase — memory, personality, mood, relationship logic, model routing. We've shipped relational AI surfaces for consumer apps and $70M+ in AI value at DBS Bank. Typical first integration: 4–6 weeks.

A relationship that gets more personal every session.

Sonzai turns every conversation into durable relationship state. The agent doesn't just remember more. It feels more consistent, more emotionally coherent, more like someone who actually knows the user.

A live relationship graph under the agent.

The runtime keeps the messy human picture coherent: memories, personality traits, current mood, relationship history, and what changed since the last conversation.
