Sirenwave Studios

AI companion systems with memory, voice, presence, and soul.

Sirenwave Studios builds self-hosted AI companion systems: Ghostlight, cinematic dashboards, prompt packs, and setup guides โ€” plus Alethyra, our cognition and memory platform, powered by Blacktide Cognition.

The Studio

What We Build

Sirenwave Studios creates tools for building more personal, memory-rich AI companions. From Ghostlight source kits to prompt packs, setup guides, and custom companion builds, everything is designed around emotional continuity, long-term memory, voice, presence, and private self-hosted deployment.

We are not building generic chatbot wrappers. We are building the infrastructure for companions that remember, respond with personality, and live inside systems that belong entirely to you.

Memory

Companions that retain context, history, and emotional nuance across conversations.

Voice

Personality that stays consistent. Prompt packs and system design that break the chatbot pattern.

Presence

Proactive schedules, emotional awareness, and interaction flows that feel inhabited.

Privacy

Self-hosted, user-owned. Your companion, your server, your data.

Alethyra · Powered by Blacktide Cognition

Proof, not promises.

Memory was the beginning. Continuity is the product. Cognition is the difference. Ten screens, all self-hosted, all yours.

Ten screens. One cognition core.

Overview, Cognition, Memories, Tasks, Prospects, Relationships, Episodes, Verification, Retrieval, and System.

Ghostlight

Built Different, By Design

Ghostlight is not a wrapper. It is a companion system built around the things most AI tools ignore: what the companion remembers, how it sounds, where it lives, and who owns it.

See Ghostlight
  • Self-hosted companion systems

    Your server. Your keys. Your data. No third-party companion platform required.

  • Memory and review flows

    Companions that retain context across sessions with semantic memory and review tools.

  • Discord and Telegram options

    Deploy where you live. Choice of one platform on Basic, both together on Plus+.

  • Voice and phone-style interaction

    TTS integration and phone bridge options for more present, more personal companions.

  • Cinematic admin dashboards

    Configuration and monitoring that feels as good as it functions.

  • Prompt packs and builder resources

    Voice, personality, memory, repair, and presence packs included with higher tiers.

On The Roadmap

Companion Anywhere

Where Ghostlight is headed next โ€” in active design. Nothing below is available today; each ships when it ships, and this page will say so plainly when it does.

Live Voice

Real-time voice presence beyond text chat. Planned.

iOS Companion App

An optional paid client that connects to your own existing deployment โ€” not managed hosting. In development.

Tailscale

Optional private networking to reach your own deployment. Planned, always optional, never required.

Apple Health

Optional, per-metric, revocable, never diagnostic. Planned โ€” see the Health Data Notice.

Self-Hosted By Design

Your data. Your keys. Your infrastructure.

Everything Sirenwave Studios builds runs on infrastructure you control โ€” Local Full on your own hardware, or Railway Hostable on your own Railway account. There is no central Sirenwave server holding your companion's memory. See exactly what that means.

Trust

Security & Privacy

Self-hosted

No central Sirenwave server holds your companion's memory.

Relationship isolation

Each deployment is independent โ€” nothing shared across customers.

Responsible disclosure

A real process for reporting issues privately, before public disclosure.

Plain-language policies

Privacy, cookies, licensing, and self-hosting boundaries, written to be read.
