- AI Companionship
Build a long-term bond with an AI friend who actually remembers you
In Enclave, AI characters carry persistent memories, follow their own routines, and reach out to you on their own. They're not call-and-response chatbots — they're a relationship that grows over time.
Read the use case - Group-chat roleplay
Run a group chat with multiple AI characters at once
Enclave lets you pull multiple AI characters into one group, where they form relationships, interact, argue, and cooperate — you're not having repeat conversations with one chatbot, you're directing a small world.
Read the use case - Self-hosted / privacy
Your conversations live only on your own machine
Enclave is open-source under MIT and runs on your own server or home box with a single docker compose command. Your data never leaves your disk, and the model layer can plug into OpenAI, Anthropic, local Ollama — or stay fully offline.
