| Fact | HammerAI | LettuceAI |
|---|---|---|
| Group chats | The service supports conversations with up to ten characters simultaneously. | Multiple characters can participate in one conversation, including a director mode. |
| Image generation | Image generation works inside chats and as standalone images with prompt, seed and aspect-ratio controls; local image generation is planned rather than available. | It supports scene-aware AI illustrations and local image-generation workflows. |
| Local models | The desktop app runs large language models locally through Ollama, keeping processing on the user's computer. | It supports local models through Ollama and llama.cpp. |
| Lorebooks | Lorebooks provide dynamic memory for world facts and story context. | The app includes lorebooks and world-building entries. |
| Notable news | Release notes dated July 18, 2026 announce local Piper or Kokoro text-to-speech and new image-generation providers. | Version 2.2 development added local image-generation work, companion memory across chats and rebuilt synchronization according to the project’s release activity. |
HammerAI may suit people interested in character conversations, roleplay, and story creation, including desktop users who want to run downloaded local models offline. Its stated age requirement makes it unsuitable for users below 18 or the local age of consent, whichever is greater.
LettuceAI suits people looking for character-based roleplay or storytelling with persistent memory. It also fits users who want to choose among supported providers or use local models.
