Summary

Ensoul is a local-first AI companion app that stores a companion’s identity, memories, mood, and history as documents on the user’s device. It runs on Android, macOS, Windows, and the web. Users can connect to a provider directly or use one key to access Claude, GPT, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, and dozens of open models. Conversation memories can be reviewed, edited, or removed. Ensoul imports companions from documents, folders, files, character cards, notes, and chat exports, and can export a folder containing identity, history, media, and tools. Listed features include voice, generated images, and group conversations between companions. Its folder tool can read coding-agent session stores from Claude Code, Codex, opencode, and DeepSeek Harness. Desktop and mobile conversations, memories, settings, and related data are stored locally; browser data and API keys are kept in that browser’s site storage and are removed if browser data is cleared. The free plan requires users to bring their own model key. Hosted access is offered for a $12.00 USD one-time contribution, granting three months of access.

Who it is for

Ensoul suits adults 18 and over who want to create AI companions and manage their memories themselves. It may also suit users who want to import or export companion files or choose their model provider.

What is good

  • Free plan; no account required.
  • Conversation memories can be read, corrected, or deleted.
  • Imports and exports companion folders and files.
  • Voice, generated images, and group conversations are listed.

What to know first

  • Free plan requires users to bring their own model key.
  • Desktop builds are not notarized.
  • Devices do not sync automatically.
  • No installable iOS build yet.

Verdict

Ensoul offers companion creation with user-managed memory and locally stored desktop and mobile data. Consider the browser-storage behavior, lack of automatic syncing, and bring-your-own-key requirement before choosing it.
