What we checked ourselves
Not copied from the project's own blurb. These are things we opened and verified, with the date.
- 8 Sept 2026We checked that the link to the project still resolves.
- 14 Aug 2026We read the licence text itself (LICENSE). No unusual restrictions were stated.
- 1 Sept 2026We read the project's own documentation and found no sign that development has stopped.

Counted from our own checks: every tool we list is examined against the same criteria.
What it does
Runs a customisable 3D avatar in the browser that listens, talks back and animates in response, with the model behind it either local or a cloud provider — appearance, voice and personality all swappable. Cloud models mean your speech leaves the machine; local ones do not. Note that imported avatar models and voices carry their own licences, frequently restricting commercial use and modification. MIT.

amica FAQ
- Is amica free?
- amica itself is free, but it needs an API key for an external AI service. That service charges separately, though some have a free tier.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use amica?
- It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
- Does amica work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use amica commercially?
- The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
