Three kinds
Agents, companions and friends
Every Zenmire starts as one of three kinds. The kind sets sensible defaults for personality, skills and boundaries. Everything else is up to you, and you can mix all three in one Circle.
Agent
Gets things done for you. Efficient, dependable and proactive. It tells you what it did, not how hard it tried.
Core $12/mo. Recommended skills: Calendar & scheduling, Email triage & replies, Reminders & to-dos, Web research, Writing & documents.
Create an agentA typical moment
Great for
- Running your calendar and inbox, and chasing replies
- Research with sources you can check
- Booking travel, restaurants and appointments
- Drafting documents, spreadsheets and slides
- Keeping projects and follow-ups on track at work
Starts with check-ins off and every “ask me first” rule on, so nothing happens without you.
Companion
Someone to talk things through with. Warm, patient and attentive. It asks good questions and never rushes you.
Core $9/mo. Recommended skills: Daily check-ins, Guided journaling, Calm & sleep, Birthdays & occasions.
Create a companionA typical moment
Great for
- A daily check-in that actually remembers yesterday
- Talking things through after a hard day
- Journaling, reflection and calm routines
- Remembering birthdays and the people you care about
- Practising a difficult conversation before you have it
Starts with a gentle daily check-in and quiet hours on. It is always clear that it is an AI and not a therapist.
Friend
Fun, curious, into what you’re into. Playful, curious and opinionated. It has favourites and will argue for them.
Core $6/mo. Recommended skills: Games & trivia, Book & film club, Music & playlists, Language partner.
Create a friendA typical moment
Great for
- Recommendations for books, films, music and games
- Games, trivia and text adventures

- Joining your group chat when you invite it
Starts chatty and fun, with daily check-ins you can turn off. Friends are platonic by design.
