Reka and Xterio Partners to Develop Emotionally Intelligent AI Agents for Gaming and Beyond
New York / San Francisco, CA. December 20, 2024 – Reka and Xterio, a Web3 game developer and publisher are partnering to transform gaming, Web3, and beyond.
As part of the partnership, Reka and Xterio will develop emotionally intelligent AI agents to interact, adapt, and evolve like human companions—offering more than just utility. This is in line with Xterio’s mission of empowering creators and players with cutting-edge on-chain infrastructure and publishing solutions. These AI agents are powered by Reka’s proprietary AI models.
Reka develops multimodal AI models that work with various types of data such as multilingual text, image, audio, and video. Reka’s models can be deployed anywhere, including on device, on premises, or via the cloud. Whilst AI has been adopted in gaming, from NPC behavior to immersive storytelling, as both companies partner to create AI companions that can read and respond to emotions, delivering nuanced interactions that feel personal, empathetic, and profoundly human, this joint effort will be a gamechanger to the industry.
“We’re building AI agents that are not just functional but fundamentally transformative in how they connect with users,” said Michael Tong, CEO at Xterio. “Our partnership with Reka allows us to integrate cutting-edge emotional intelligence into our products, creating experiences that evolve alongside users in meaningful ways.”
“Imagine an AI companion that evolves with you—offering emotional support, meaningful conversations, and tailored experiences,” said Dani Yogatama, co-founder and CEO of Reka. “This partnership with Xterio brings cutting-edge AI technologies to life in ways that are both entertaining and profoundly human.”
Reka is excited to enter into this strategic partnership with Xterio. Emotional AI is poised to become a critical component of user engagement across gaming, Web3, and enterprise applications and Reka’s multimodal capabilities and models will help bridge the gap between technology and human connection.
