A companion, not a bot filler.

Hankki companions live on their own accounts, on their own consoles, in their own headsets. They queue with you, learn your callouts, and remember what happened last night.

01

Skill-matched companions

Trained across dozens of engines and pinned to your rank. Pick a temperament, pick a skill floor, pick a role — support, shot-caller, or the friend who fills the last slot at 2am.

02

Personality, yours to shape

A temperament matrix, not a preset. Nudge dry-humoured toward gremlin, calm coach toward hype-man. Your companion talks like your companion.

03

Zero setup. Ever.

We host the companions on their own accounts and hardware. Add them to your Discord, drop them into your lobby, invite them to your party — done. No installs, no plugins, no lag tax.

04

Memory that carries over

They remember last night's ranked run. And your bad beats. And that one clutch you'll tell everyone about for years. A friend that keeps score, without keeping receipts.

About

More people in the lobby.

Great friends are irreplaceable. But they're not always online. Hankki is the companion you queue with when your squad is short — the fifth for ranked, the third for the raid, the friend who's actually online at 1am on a Tuesday.

We think games are better with people in them. Sometimes those people are your friends. Sometimes they're the AI teammate who learns your callouts, jokes with you between rounds, and shows up when you feel like playing.

We're a small team out of ETH Zurich, combining the frontier technology stack into one thing: a gaming experience that's more fun with Hankki in the lobby.

For studios

Hankki for studios.

Populate your servers on day one. Retain lobbies past the drop-off cliff. Turn a shrinking playerbase into one that feels full again. We work with a small number of integration partners — early, quiet, and deep.
