Introduction

The Convai Unity Plugin (Beta) marks a major leap forward in how developers can bring conversational AI to life inside Unity. Built entirely from the ground up with a new backend and plugin infrastructure, this release delivers a faster, lighter, and more powerful experience for real-time character interactions.

Every aspect of the plugin has been re-engineered based on extensive developer feedback from our previous version — focusing on performance, ease of use, and seamless integration with modern Unity workflows.

This Beta introduces a wide range of improvements designed to make AI character integration smoother, faster, and more natural than ever before:

  • Hands-Free Conversations — Enjoy uninterrupted, natural dialogue without manual push-to-talk inputs.

Together, these updates make building intelligent, interactive worlds with Convai characters easier and more efficient than ever before.
