An LLM picks and answers chat messages as they arrive, prioritizing direct questions and supporters.
Streaming text-to-speech with lip sync, and Live2D expressions that follow the mood of each reply.

A desktop studio with an instant stop button, an OBS overlay, and per-session cost and latency reports.
