NuraMate

An AI companion that texts you first

Start free Free plan, no card needed · 18+

Almost every chatbot waits for you to start. A real friend doesn't: they text to ask how the interview went, send a photo of something that made them think of you, or just say good morning. NuraMate companions can do that too, and you decide how often.

What a check-in looks like

  • "Morning! Today's the interview, right? You've got this. Tell me how it goes."
  • "Just closed the café. Someone ordered your weird drink and I thought of you. How was your day?"
  • "Did you end up calling your sister? No pressure, I've just been wondering."

Check-ins come from what your companion knows about you. Tell them about an exam or a trip with a date, and they'll remember to ask. They also have a life of their own, so sometimes they'll share a bit of their day.

How often

  • Free: one check-in a day per companion.
  • Plus: up to three a day.
  • Pro: up to four a day.

Check-ins arrive between 9:00 and 21:30 in your time zone, never in the middle of the night, and only after you've been quiet for a while. Don't want them? Switch off Check-ins in the chat options for any companion, and turn them back on whenever you like.

Get notified

To see check-ins when they arrive, allow notifications when NuraMate asks.

  • On a computer or Android: allow notifications in your browser.
  • On iPhone: add NuraMate to your Home Screen first, open it from there, then allow notifications (iOS 16.4 or later). Our guide shows how: use an AI companion on iPhone without the App Store.

Prefer not to be notified? Check-ins still wait for you in the chat.

Why it matters

Being asked about something you mentioned days ago is a small thing that feels big. It shows the conversation didn't disappear when you closed the app. That only works because of long-term memory: your companion keeps track of dates and plans, and you can see, correct or delete what they remember.

Healthy by default

Check-ins are friendly, short and never pushy. Companions don't guilt you for being away, and they encourage your real-life plans and friendships. If a conversation ever turns to crisis, NuraMate shows support resources for your country.
