An Open Letter
To Our Community
March 6, 2026
Dear Community,
We want to begin by saying something that can never be said enough — thank you. Thank you for the chats, the characters, and the stories. Thank you for every conversation that brought a character to life, every narrative that pushed creative boundaries, and every moment you chose to spend with us. You built something we never could have built alone.
What began as a side project — a small experiment born from curiosity and a love of AI — has grown into something far beyond what we ever imagined. Today, we are a community of 85,000+ people, united by a shared passion for creativity, conversation, and the incredible possibilities of artificial intelligence.
That growth has been nothing short of extraordinary. But with extraordinary growth comes extraordinary responsibility — and, frankly, extraordinary demands. We have reached a point where our small team, the same team that started this as a passion project, can no longer provide the experience that you — our community — truly deserve.
The infrastructure needs scaling. The features need expanding. The support needs deepening. And doing all of this right requires resources, expertise, and a level of operational capacity that goes beyond what we can offer today.
It is for this reason that we have made the difficult but necessary decision: we are seeking a buyer — someone who shares our vision, respects what this community has built, and has the capability to take it to the next level.
This is not an ending. This is the beginning of the next chapter. We want to ensure that whoever takes the reins understands that the heart of this project has always been you — the community.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Thank you for making it matter.
With deep gratitude and respect,
The Free AI Team
