Replika, one of the first generative AI companies, is back with the launch of Tomo, an artificial intelligence that will accompany you on your path to Zen. The AI has been created in collaboration with the development team of Blush, a AI dating simulator, and its ultimate goal is for you to be well. As simple as that.
Tomo is an immersive experience of spiritual and mental guidance with AI that uses the latest technology to help users find peace and tranquility in the midst of digital chaos. The app will take you to a virtual retreat island where Tomo will welcome you and offer various programs to help you explore your growth, well-being, and personal fulfillment.
“We work with trainers and psychologists to design Tomo’s programs. We focus on the most common issues, but we also think about what would work best with conversational AI,” says Eugenia Kuyda, founder and CEO of Replika. “We had a lot of experience building coaching programs for Replika with clinical psychologists from UC Berkeley; for Tomo, we expanded that to mindfulness teachers to combine Eastern and Western practices.”
Tomo, which is now available for iOS and is being developed for Apple Vision Pro, can be tested completely free for 3 days. Those who want to continue using its features will have to pay a subscription of $7.99 per week or $49.99 per year.
