Zhipu AI's Z Plan Corporate Roadshow - Z DemoDay (Summer 2024) was held on August 4th at Zhipu AI company. A total of 25 companies participating in the Z Plan presented at the event, attracting nearly 300 investors. This marks the first large-scale roadshow since the launch of the Z Plan. Among the companies participating in Z DemoDay was Mindera, one of the portfolio companies of Heroad Investments.
Mindera introduced its latest project at Z DemoDay, a mobile app called MoodTalker designed to be an AI companion that understands and cares for young users. MoodTalker features three AI animal characters: a fox, a deer, and a bear. These characters help young users better cope with emotional issues and achieve self-awareness and growth through shared experiences.
In specific interactions, these three AI animal characters provide users with emotional value by offering features such as visual emotion recognition, music, psychological techniques, and meditation within conversational scenarios, making users feel "seen, understood, and cared for." Beyond dialogue, the product focuses on leveraging AI's intellectual efficiency and visual generation capabilities to create continuous offline care actions, and to deliver a mind-reading experience that surpasses human psychologists. This visualizes the subconscious self and others. The unique memory-building mechanism and offline care mode ensure that everyone can receive the necessary emotional support and space for growth.
Additionally, users can use the mind-reading card function on MoodTalker. By drawing a card, describing the card information, and selecting an emotional theme, users can better understand their own personality, state, strengths, and unique advantages.
MoodTalker targets Gen Z female users aged 15-29 in China, and white female users aged 20-35 in North America (currently piloting in the North American market). The product employs a subscription-based business model and has plans to integrate with hardware and educational platforms in the future. Financially, it benchmarks against successful products like Noom ($1 million/month) and Finch ($800,000/month).
Powered by AI, MoodTalker offers a novel emotional companionship experience through interactions with three AI animal characters. It not only responds to users' emotions in real-time but also helps users gain deep self-awareness and promote overall well-being through continuous companionship and care.
