From character to companion

Six layers of Life for every Toy.

Realtime voice

Let it listen and speak

Give each character natural, real-time conversation that stays true to its personality across languages.

Hardware

Put Life inside the Toy

Design microphones, speakers, controls, and sensors around plush, plastic, and character products.

Connected product

Connect toy, app, and cloud

Handle pairing, permissions, connectivity, updates, and companion experiences across every touchpoint.

Looking for an AI companion you can try?

Meet LifeToy characters such as Bearie and Catie, explore the LifeToy app, or try Catie’s browser voice preview. The browser preview uses your phone or computer’s microphone and speaker with an internet connection; it does not require a physical toy.

For a physical talking plush toy, ask about current product options and compatible hardware. Check the specific toy’s availability, intended age, supported languages, setup and ongoing service costs before choosing it.

What makes a toy an AI toy?

Discover how conversational toys work, what goes into an AI plushie and what to consider before building or choosing one.

LifeToy technology

One platform. A living character.

We develop the system connecting a toy to its character: dedicated voice hardware, embedded firmware, realtime AI integration, backend services and tools for creating and operating the experience.

Product illustrations. Hardware integration and interfaces vary by product.

Dedicated voice hardware

Microphones, speakers, controls and connectivity designed around the physical toy. Fit, power and acoustics are assessed for each integration.

Embedded firmware

Device software coordinates audio, connectivity, conversation state and updates on supported hardware.

Realtime voice

Speech-to-speech provider integration brings listening and responses together with the character’s voice and conversation behavior.

Backend & orchestration

Session authorization, character configuration, usage accounting and device ownership connect the product to its services.

LifeToy Studio

Start from an image, shape a character, select its voice and personality, and manage its availability and hardware assignment.

Companion experience

Discover characters, pair compatible hardware and revisit conversation history. Store releases and physical-product availability are confirmed separately.

Engineered for realtime conversation

A convincing character needs coordinated listening, turn-taking, interruption handling and playback. We engineer those parts together across the device, firmware, AI service and application. Provider integrations and spoken-language quality are validated for each product release.

Our mission

Give toy brands and creators the hardware, software and realtime intelligence to bring their characters to life through meaningful conversation.

Our vision

A world where familiar toys open new possibilities for imagination, connection and learning.

Hardware for plush and plastic toys

Put Life inside every Toy.

Our voice hardware connects microphones, speakers and wireless communication with LifeToy software. It is the starting point for bringing an existing toy design or a new character to life. Each integration needs the right physical fit, power design and product validation.

Voice hardware architecture

Reference microphone, speaker, controls, and sensor integration designed around the form of your toy.

Cloud connected

Secure internet connectivity carries conversations, configuration, updates, and product events.

Paired with the LifeToy app

Simple setup, family access, permissions, and companion experiences continue beyond the physical toy.

The LifeToy mobile app

Your characters. Your conversations. Your LifeToys.

The LifeToy app brings character discovery, voice conversations and compatible connected toys into one place. Explore public characters in the Marketplace and start a conversation without needing a physical plush toy. When you have a supported LifeToy device, the app also guides you through pairing it.

  • Discover public LifeToy characters and choose a companion
  • Talk to a character and revisit your conversation history
  • Pair and manage compatible LifeToy hardware

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play

Explore the web experience while the mobile store releases are being prepared.

LifeToy Marketplace

Meet the character behind your next plushie.

The Marketplace already helps visitors discover public LifeToy characters and start a conversation. We are building the next step with business partners: a place to offer plushies brought to life by LifeToy technology.

Planned conversational shopping: meet the character, ask product questions and explore the partner’s plush toy before deciding.

Planned purchase choices: a plushie with or without compatible LifeToy hardware, depending on the partner’s product offering.

Sales are not yet generally available. Product listings will confirm what is included, availability, price and delivery as partner sales launch.

A plushie without integrated LifeToy hardware does not speak on its own. In-toy conversations require a compatible device and the connectivity specified for that product; app-based character conversations are a separate experience.

Characters are the product

Five characters. One adaptable LifeToy platform.

Every character can have its own voice, personality, story, and way of interacting — without rebuilding the infrastructure beneath it.

Your character stays the hero.

Responsible by design

Wonder for children. Clarity for adults.

A living toy enters a family’s world. The experience should feel joyful for children and understandable to the adults responsible for it.

Clarity for families

Understandable setup and controls help parents and caregivers decide how the toy participates in family life.

Safety as infrastructure

Age-aware behavior, product boundaries, and governance tools are part of the platform from the beginning.

Privacy by design

Consent and responsible data handling are designed into the experience across toy, app, and cloud.

Why LifeToy

Life for every Toy. A soul for every character.

Our vision is to give life to any toy through technology. LifeToy combines physical hardware with AI voice software so a familiar shape can become a character you can talk to.

We work with brands, toy manufacturers and creators to turn that vision into practical products, from the first prototype to an experience that can be managed and developed over time. Compatibility and release requirements are assessed for each design.
