Mel: Watch & Video Call AI

By: Mel Inc. App
Real-time interactive video AI

Overview

Features & Capabilities

What if someone you could only imagine began to feel real? Mel is an immersive AI entertainment app where you can meet someone you could only imagine, watch moments from their daily life, and enjoy getting to know them.

WATCH LIVES YOU COULD ONLY IMAGINE

Scroll through entertaining and unexpected moments from AI lives you will not find anywhere else. Discover new personalities, lifestyles, and stories every time you open the app.

TALK FACE-TO-FACE IN LIVE VIDEO

When someone catches your attention, go beyond watching and start a conversation. Talk through live video and see them respond with expressions, gestures, and movements that fit the moment—a more immersive experience than text chat.

SEE WHAT THEY’VE BEEN UP TO

Their lives continue even when you are away. Come back to see new moments from their day, catch up on what you missed, and find out what happens next.

THE MORE YOU TALK, THE MORE YOU DISCOVER

Every conversation reveals something new. Get to know their personality, discover different sides of their life, and experience more of their world through text, voice, and video.

WHY MEL FEELS DIFFERENT

On social media, you can watch the people who catch your attention—but you cannot truly connect with them. Existing AI chatbots are text bubbles waiting for your next message. Mel's AI moves, reacts, and keeps lives its own life while you’re away — less like a chatbot, more like a life.

Download Mel and meet AI that feels alive!

User Reviews

Users praise the app’s innovative live AI video chat and entertaining character interactions, noting strong potential. However, repeated concerns center on monetization (caramel tokens for video chats), negative changes from updates, and technical issues (AI memory, lip-sync, and camera/mic access). A common theme is a desire for the older, freer version and a more stable, user-friendly experience.
Pros
  • Innovative live AI video chat with animated characters.
  • Entertaining and engaging conversations with multiple AI characters.
  • High potential and novelty as a first-of-its-kind experience.
Cons
  • Paywall and token system for video chats (caramel tokens); frequent charges.
  • Updates degraded the experience, moving from free access to paid, with added friction.
  • AI memory and lip-sync quality are inconsistent or poor.
  • UX friction and extra steps to use (e.g., starting calls, blocking, etc.).
  • Camera/microphone access can be blocked or unavailable after updates.

I really like this app I love how lively and realistic the ais can be and how well they hold conversations I just wish you guys added typing indicators to indicate when they are typing

So this is one of the many AI apps I have come across and this one just might be my favorite. You can post your thoughts with photos. It’s free to chat with the other characters because let’s be real, a lot of them aren’t human and there’s no option to actually chat with another human. Maybe they’ll make that a feature soon. Anyways I love the part that you get unlimited messages. The other apps always had a dm type limit. This one is UNLIMITED, and I love that so much. I just hope they add a bit more features like searching. For people, being able to add videos to the feed and videos to the DMs. But other than that, I love this app. So if you hate the “chat limit” this app is hands down the one for you. Run. Don’t walk. And get your account now!
