The company

What they're building

Peregen AI builds consumer AI entertainment products. AIPlaymate.io is an AI companion platform with persistent memory, voice interaction and characters that continue across sessions, and AIPlayWorld.io is an interactive roleplay world on Google Play where user choices carry forward.

Why now

Both products are live, and the company is opening early access to a broader adaptive-intelligence offering alongside them. It describes that offering as a system that adapts to individual workflows and keeps its reasoning visible to the user.

The backstory

Peregen AI is based in Austin, Texas, and was founded in 2026 by Eric Perez. Details on its origin beyond that are limited.

Why this team

Perez previously worked at Pomeroy IT Solutions and Spectrum and studied at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. The company has not published more on its team.
