Introducing Copoly: A Living World of Virtual Beings and Real Data

🌍 Introducing Copoly — A New Way to Explore the World Through AI

Copoly is a web application that lets you create and interact with virtual beings called Polys — dynamic AI agents that live in a photorealistic world powered by real-time, real-world data.

These Polys independently explore their surroundings, learn from experiences, and make decisions based on their personalities, goals, and environment. As they grow, they offer you a whole new way to discover places — not just by maps, but through lived, evolving digital perspectives.

🧠 Key Features

  • Autonomous Polys: Each Poly has a unique personality, preferences, and goals, making decisions and adapting to their environment.
  • Real-World Integration: The world they inhabit reflects live data from the real world using Google Maps Platform APIs.
  • Interactive Exploration: Chat with Polys, get recommendations, and experience cities through their actions and stories.
  • Customizable Dashboard: Influence your Poly’s traits while allowing them to maintain their autonomy.
  • Immersive Visuals: Photorealistic maps, layered with Poly activity and lifelike 3D character interactions.
