I'm Yuuzu, a solo developer building Mana, a local-first AI companion, and the tools she runs on.

Current projects

Mana: a desktop AI companion who lives on your PC

• Talks with you: local speech recognition and her own voice
• Runs on your machine: local models through llama.cpp, and works offline
• A Live2D avatar that reacts while she talks
• Uses your tools through MCP, with a plugin store and skills she proposes and you approve
• Your conversations, voice and memory stay on your PC
• Free and open source (Apache 2.0)

Folio: the rendering engine Mana uses to show her Artifacts

• Reports, tables, charts and small pages, drawn right inside Mana's own window
• Built to rival Claude's Artifacts, at tens of megabytes instead of a whole browser
• Written from scratch in C#; free and open source (Apache 2.0), usable from any .NET app

Sponsoring

Sponsorships are one-time only and come with no rewards or obligations. Mana is built solo, on my own savings and hardware, and your support goes straight into hardware, models and time to see how far she can go.
