币界网报道：5 million downloads, ARR of 4 million US dollars, why does this "alien AI" make young people obsessed? Today, with the rapid rise of AI companion applications, Tolan, as an AI companion application that "makes friends" with anthropomorphic alien creatures, has received over 5 million downloads overseas and over 4 million US dollars in ARR. Behind Tolan's success is its unique alien image, personalized interaction and gamification elements, as well as its understanding of user emotions and companionship methods. Compared with similar domestic products such as cat boxes, Tolan's success lies in avoiding simulation of human relationships and providing a warm, non-romantic companionship experience that meets the needs of modern young users.
