Agreement to Terms
By downloading, accessing, or using the Existence mobile application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.
Description of Service
Existence is an AI character platform that lets you chat with AI-powered characters. The App provides:
- Conversations with AI characters created by us, by other users, or by you
- Tools to create and customize your own AI characters
- Voice calls with characters
- AI-generated images and selfies sent by characters
- Personalized responses based on your preferences and conversation history
- Long-term memory of your conversations
All characters are powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies. You understand and acknowledge that you are interacting with an AI, not a human, and that everything a character says and every image it sends is AI-generated fiction.
User-Created Characters
Your Characters
- You retain ownership of the original creative content you write for characters you create (names, descriptions, greetings, personas)
- By creating a character, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, display, and operate the character within the App, including generating AI responses and images in the character's persona
- Characters you set to Public are visible to and can be chatted with by other users. Their name, avatar, tagline, and description are public content
- Conversations other users have with your character are private to those users — you cannot see them
