DreamRP (YC S24) — Character.ai meets Patreon
DreamRP lets creators earn money by turning their characters into chatbots. For example, George R.R. Martin could charge fans to chat with a Jon Snow bot.

Congratulations on launching DreamRP! This concept is incredibly intriguing, and I can already envision how it can revolutionize fan interactions with beloved characters.
I particularly love the idea of creators earning money through chatbots, like fans getting the chance to chat with a Jon Snow bot—it really brings characters to life in a new and engaging way.
Have you considered implementing a feature where fans can customize their interaction? It could enhance the experience even more! Keep up the fantastic work; I can't wait to see where this goes!
Incredible launch, @ninahu and the DreamRP team! The idea of monetizing character interactions is brilliant, especially with an ethics-first approach. Your background in webcomics and Etsy really shows your dedication to creators. How do you plan to ensure the quality and uniqueness of each character chatbot? Any plans for exclusive partnerships with well-known creators? Go YC Alum!
@renchu_song Thanks Richard and good question! By sourcing talented creators who know exactly what their fanbases want, we're able to ensure high quality on DreamRP. Exclusive partnerships are upcoming - stay tuned!
Congratulations on the launch of DreamRP! This innovative platform bridges the gap between AI roleplaying and creator monetization, offering a unique space for artistic expression and revenue generation. Will there be features to allow creators to customize the AI interactions further, and are there plans to integrate with existing social media platforms for broader reach and engagement?
Hey Nina and Phillip,
How do you handle potential copyright issues, especially for well-known characters?
What measures are in place to prevent misuse or creation of inappropriate character bots?
Congrats on the launch!
Congratulations on the DreamRP launch! This one-of-a-kind platform mixes AI roleplaying with creator monetisation to promote both artistic expression and financial gain.
I’ve seen similar ideas, but none that give creators full control over their characters and monetization. It’s great to see more platforms fighting for creativity. wishing you the best!
@charlos_brat Absolutely, we aim to give creators more credit for all their hard work. Thanks for your support!
Would you ever consider letting artists sell their art via chatbot? So in the same way you're letting artists charge to chat with a character, the artist could train a specific agent on their own work, and then sell access to generating art featuring their character designs? Then the artist gets paid for their own work, controls the bot that's trained on their own work, and can scale their work to make their life easier. I thought that's what this was at first...
I love how this completely changes the way we experience stories. Being able to chat with a character and actually influence the plot feels so immersive!
